Now on hearing about the coming back from death, some of them made sport of it, but others said, Let us go more fully into this another time.

And Paul said, John gave a baptism which goes with a change of heart, saying to the people that they were to have faith in him who was coming after him, that is, in Jesus.

For, if by their putting away, the rest of men have been made friends with God, what will their coming back again be, but life from the dead?

For which reason I was frequently kept from coming to you:

But still we have wisdom for those who are complete in knowledge, though not the wisdom of this world, and not of the rulers of this world, who are coming to nothing:

Now some are full of pride, as if I was not coming to you.

What is your desire? is my coming to be with punishment, or is it to be in love and a gentle spirit?

For as by man came death, so by man there is a coming back from the dead.

At the coming of Christ who is our life, you will be seen with him in glory.

For you yourselves, brothers, are conscious that our coming among you was not without effect:

For which reason we made attempts to come to you, even I, Paul, once and again; but Satan kept us from coming.

For what is our hope or joy or crown of glory? Are not even you, before our Lord Jesus, at his coming?

So that your hearts may be strong and free from all sin before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.

For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are still living at the coming of the Lord, will not go before those who are sleeping.

Now as to the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, and our meeting with him, it is our desire, my brothers,

And then will come the revelation of that evil one, whom the Lord Jesus will put to death with the breath of his mouth, and give to destruction by the revelation of his coming;

Even the one whose coming is marked by the working of Satan, with all power and signs and false wonders,

But the effect of the order is love coming from a clean heart, and a knowledge of what is right, and true faith:

But if I am long in coming, this will make clear to you what behaviour is right for men in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and base of what is true.

Men whose ideas are all false, who say that the coming back from the dead has even now taken place, overturning the faith of some.

Ever learning, and never coming to the knowledge of what is true.

With knowledge of the good word of God, and of the powers of the coming time,

For, protesting against them, he says, See, the days are coming when I will make a new agreement with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah;

So Christ, having at his first coming taken on himself the sins of men, will be seen a second time, without sin, by those who are waiting for him, for their salvation.

Not giving up our meetings, as is the way of some, but keeping one another strong in faith; and all the more because you see the day coming near.

In a very little time he who is coming will come; he will not be slow.

I make this request more strongly, in the hope of coming back to you more quickly.

Be as calm in your waiting; let your hearts be strong: because the coming of the Lord is near.

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who through his great mercy has given us a new birth and a living hope by the coming again of Jesus Christ from the dead,

And baptism, of which this is an image, now gives you salvation, not by washing clean the flesh, but by making you free from the sense of sin before God, through the coming again of Jesus Christ from the dead;

I who am myself one of the rulers of the church, and a witness of the death of Christ, having my part in the coming glory, send this serious request to the chief men among you:

And at the coming of the chief Keeper of the sheep, you will be given the eternal crown of glory.

For when we gave you news of the power and the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, our teaching was not based on stories put together by art, but we were eye-witnesses of his glory.

Saying, Where is the hope of his coming? From the death of the fathers till now everything has gone on as it was from the making of the world.

Seeing then that all these things are coming to such an end, what sort of persons is it right for you to be, in all holy behaviour and righteousness,

Looking for and truly desiring the coming of the day of God, when the heavens will come to an end through fire, and the substance of the earth will be changed by the great heat?

And the world and its desires is coming to an end: but he who does God's pleasure is living for ever.

And I saw another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and his voice was like that of a dragon.

And I saw coming out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits, like frogs.

After these things I saw another angel coming down out of heaven, having great authority; and the earth was bright with his glory.

And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key of the great deep and a great chain in his hand.

The rest of the dead did not come to life again till the thousand years were ended. This is the first coming back from the dead.
