No man should be moved by these afflictions: for yourselves know that we are appointed thereunto. For verily, when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer tribulation. – In me ye … have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. |
I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness. – The night is far spent, the day is at hand. – He shall be as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, even a morning without clouds; as the tender grass springing out of the earth by clear shining after rain. |
He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord God will wipe away tears from off all faces. – There shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. – We which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. … Wherefore comfort one another with these words. |
