1 Thessalonians 4:16-18

"For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words."

This painting by Chas Anderson (1974) shows how the rapture might be like. I have always liked this picture,

although it has caught a lot of criticism through the years.  Are you ready for the Rapture?
