I. A resurrection of the dead, and changing of them that are alive, at the coming of the Lord Jesus out of heaven, being made: Christ shall straight exhibit himself to be seen of them all in the clouds: and all the faithful shall meet him in the air.

I. Aresurrection of the dead, and chaunging of them that are aliue, at the comming of the Lord Jesus out of heauen, being made: Christ shall straight exhibite himselfe to bee seene of them all in the cloudes: and all the faithfull shall meete him in the ayre.

:743p. 264

WE believe, that the dead rising again by the ministry of the Angels, at the coming of the Lord Jesus: they which shall then be remaining alive, they shall not indeed dye, but they shall in a moment be changed, into the same state with the dead that are risen: and then Christ, being come down from heaven even in the clouds, there shall judge all men, and from thence give sentence on them, shall show himself apparently to all: and that all the godly being taken up from the earth, even into the clouds shall go to meet him, ¹attended on by the Angels, and appearing in his great majesty and glory: as also he himself, and his Apostles have taught and left in writing.

WE beleeue, that the dead rising againe by the ministerie of the Angells, at the comming of the Lord Iesus: they which shall then bee remaining aliue, they shall not indeed dye, but they shall in a moment be chaunged, into the same state with the dead that are risen: and then Christ, being come downe from heauen euen in the cloudes, there shall iudge all men, and from thence giue sentence on them, shal shew himselfe apparently to all: and that all the godlie being taken vpp from the earth, euen into the clouds shall goe to meet him,
