So when this corruptible should put on incorruption, and this mortal should put on immortality, then will come to pass the word which was written: "Death was swallowed up in victory."

who will transform our lowly body, that it may be conformed to His glorious body, according to the working by which He is able even to subject all things to Himself.

Now we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, concerning those who have died, lest you be sorrowful as those who have no hope.

For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord shall by no means precede those who are dead.

Then we who are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.

Blessed and holy is he that has part in the first resurrection. Over these the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with Him for a thousand years.

And He shall wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying out; neither shall there be any more pain, for the former things have passed away."

In the middle of its street, and on both sides of the river [was the] tree of life, producing twelve fruits, each yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree [are] for the healing of the nations.

And they shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads.

[ 3:8] Thus says the Lord Almighty; If you will walk in My ways, and take heed to My charges, then shall you judge My house: and if you will diligently keep My court, then will I give you men to walk in the midst of these that stand here.

For in the resurrection neither do they marry, nor are they given in marriage, but they are like angels of God in heaven.

For whenever they rise from among the dead, neither do they marry nor are they given in marriage, but they are like angels in heaven.

And just as we have borne the image of the [man] made of dust, let us also bear the image of the heavenly [Man].

in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

And when He took the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp, and golden bowls being filled with incense, which are the prayers of the saints.

and have made them kings and priests to our God; and they will reign on the earth."

saying with a loud voice: "Worthy is the Lamb who was slain to receive the power and the wealth and wisdom and strength, and honor and glory and blessing!"

-and the four living beings said "Amen!" And the elders fell down and worshipped.

After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no man could number, out of every nation, and [from] tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, having been clothed in long white robes, with palm branches in their hands.

And all the angels stood around the throne, and the elders and the four living beings, and they fell down on their faces before His throne and they worshipped God,

Then he said to me, "See [that you do] not! For I am your fellow servant, and I am of your brothers the prophets, and of those who keep the words of this book. Worship God."

And if children, then heirs--heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer together, so that we may also be glorified together.

For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly awaits the unveiling of the sons of God.

because even the creation itself shall be freed from the slavery of corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God.

And not only that, but also [we] ourselves having the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting adoption, the redemption of our body.
