2 Corinthians 12:1-4, 7
[1] I must go on boasting. Although there is nothing to be gained, I will go on to visions and revelations from the Lord.
[2] I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know--God knows.
2 Corinthians 12:1-4, 7
[3] And I know that this man--whether in the body or apart from the body I do not know, but God knows–
[4] was caught up to Paradise. He heard inexpressible things, things that man is not permitted to tell.
2 Corinthians 12:1-4, 7
[7] To keep me from becoming conceited because of these surpassingly great revelations,
there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me.

Philippians 1:21-24
[21] For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.

Yet what shall I choose? I do not know!
Philippians 1:21-24
[23] I am torn between the two:
I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far;
[24] but it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body.
Revelation 14:13
[13] Then I heard a voice from heaven say, "Write:
Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord…"

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17
[16] For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.
[17] After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever.
John 5:28-29
[28] "Do not be amazed at this, for a time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear His voice
[29] and come out—
those who have done good will rise to live,
and those who have done evil will rise to be condemned.
1 Thessalonians 4:14
[14] We believe that Jesus died and rose again
and so
we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in Him.
