Project Eber and Wein poetry contest deadline March 21, 2025 part one NIV

1)  1st Thessalonians 4:13-18
2)  1st Corinthians 15: 49-53
3)  Revelation 3:10?
4) 1st Thessalonians 5:1-3?

1)  Brothers we would not have you ignorant about those who fall  
     asleep, or to grieve like the rest of men who have no hope. We
    believe that Christ died and rose again and so we believe that
    God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.

    According to the Lord's own words, we tell you that we who
    are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will not
    certainly proceed those who have fallen asleep.  For the Lord,
    himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command,
    with the voice of an archangel and with the trumpet call of God,
   and the dead in Christ will rise first. 

   After that, we who are alive  and are left will be caught up together 
   with the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, And so we shall be the
  Lord forever. Therefore, encourage each other with these words.

2) And just like we have born the image of the earthly man so we
    shall also bear the image of the man from heaven.  I declare to
    you brothers flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God,
   nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.  Listen I will tell
   you a mystery; we shall not all sleep, but we will all be changed--
   in a flash in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet.  For the
   trumpet will sound, the dead in Christ will be raised imperishable,
   and the mortal with immortality.

3) Concerning the rapture church of Philadelphia
    Since you have kept my command to remain
    patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of
   trial that is going to come upon the whole world
   to test those who live  on the earth.

4) Now brothers, about times and dates we do not need to write to you,
     for the day of the Lord will come like a thief in  the night. While people
    are saying "Peace and Safety,"  destruction shall come upon them
    suddenly like the labor pains on a pregnant woman and they shall
    not escape.  

the title: The Greatest Escape from Planet Earth

introduction:

The Lord promises to rescue his saints safe from the  earth's seven year's
tribulation period.  For when people are saying "Peace and Safety,"
He will return for his church and his bride just like a "thief in the night."

For the Lord will descend from heaven with a shout and voice of an
arch angel at the last trumpet and the dead in Christ will rise first.
Afterwards those still alive.
