"So shall we ever be with the Lord." 1Th 4:17
"Looking for that blessed hope." Tit 2:13
This blessed hope is;
A
powerful hope; "the dead shall be raised" 1Co 15:52
A
glorious hope; "this corruptible must put on incorruption,
this mortality must put on immortality" 1Co 15:53
A
victorious hope; "O death where is thy sting, O grave where is thy victory?" 1Co 15:55
A
joyful hope; "so shall we ever be with the Lord" 1Th 4:17
(Let us live in the light of this blessed hope)
O joy! O delight! Should we go without dying;
No sickness, no sadness, no dread, and no crying;
Caught up through the clouds with our Lord into glory;
When Jesus receives His own.
