Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord. 1 Corinthians 15:51-58

Scripture tells us that it is appointed unto men once to die, and then the judgment, but the Apostle Paul tells us of a great mystery. For those who are here when the Lord returns, they will skip the dying process and be changed instantly. Those people will simply put on their glorified body, and live forever. Corruption will put on incorruption. Mortal will put on immortality. We are therefore encouraged to be steadfast, unmovable, and always busy doing the work of the Lord, knowing that those things we do for Christ are not in vain. We will reap eternal rewards for what we do for Jesus.

We may be part of that generation that sees the Lord return. These are perilous but exciting times.
