“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 steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

The Prodigal Mother, Father, Sister, and Brother come Home!
“Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded; But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:
I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh; When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you. Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me: For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD: They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof. Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices. For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them. But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.” (Proverbs 1:21-33)

When Israel was in Egypt’s land: Let my people go,
Oppress’d so hard they could not stand, Let my People go.
Go down, Moses,
Way down in Egypt’s land,
Tell old Pharaoh,
Let my people go.
In the song “Israel” represents the African-American slaves while “Egypt” and “Pharaoh” represent the slavemaster.
Proverbs 1:20 Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:

Proverbs 1:21 She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words, saying, Proverbs 1:22 How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge? Proverbs 1:23 Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.
“All come forth from their graves the same in stature as when they entered the tomb. Adam, who stands among the risen throng, is of lofty height and majestic form, in stature but little below the Son of God. He presents a marked contrast to the people of later generations:; in this one respect is show the great degeneracy of the race. But all arise with the freshness and vigor of eternal youth. In the beginning , man was created in the likeness of God, not only in character, but in form and feature. Sin defaced and almost obliterated the divine image; but Christ came to restore that which has been lost. He will change our vile bodies and fashion them like unto His glorious body. The mortal , corruptible form, devoid of comeliness, and once polluted with sin, becomes perfect, beautiful, and immortal. All blemishes and deformities are left in the grave. Restored to the Tree of life in the long-lost Eden, the redeemed will “grow up” to the full stature of the race in its primaeval glory. The last lingering races of the curse of sin will be removed, and Christ’s faithful ones will appear int he “beauty of the Lord our God.” in mind and soul and body reflecting the perfect image of their Lord. Oh, wonderful redemption! long talked of, long hope for, contemplated with eager anticipation, but never fully understood!
“LOOK UP” That is not an asteroid coming to destroy! It is the masses of angels coming to deliver those created in His image! They are singing! Can you hear them?
In Vision Ellen White Saw This:
“The living righteous are changed “In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye.” At the voice of God they were glorified; now they are made immortal and with the risen saints are caught up to meet their Lord in the air. Angels “gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.” Little children are borne by holy angels to their mothers’ arms. Friends long separated by death are united, nevermore to part, and the with songs of gladness ascend together to the city of God.
“On each side of the cloudy chariot are wings, and beneath it are living wheels; and as the chariot rolls upward, the wheels cry, “Holy,” and the wings as they move, cry, “holy,” and the retinue of angels cry, “Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty.” And the redeemed shout, “Alleluia!” as the chariot moves onward toward the New Jerusalem.
“Before entering the city of God the Savoir bestows upon His followers the emblems of victor and invests them with the insignia of their royal state. The glittering ranks are drawn up in the form of a hollow square about their King, whose form rises in Majesty high above saint and and angel, whose countenance beams upon them full of benignant love. throughout the unnumbered host of the redeemed every glance is fixed upon Hi, every eye beholds His glory whose “visage as so marred more than any man, and His form more than the sons of men.” [Jesus retains the scars!] Upon the heads of the overcomers, Jesus with his own right hand places the crown of glory. For each there is a crown, bearing his [her] own “new name.” (Revelation 2:17) and the inscription, “Holiness to the Lord.” In every hand are paced the victor’s palm and the shining harp. The, as the commanding angels strike the note, every hand sweeps the harp strings with skillful touch, awakening sweet music in rich, melodious strains. Rapture unalterable thrills every heart, and each voice is raised in grateful praise: “Unto Him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in His own blood, and hath made us kings and priests unto God and His Father; to Him be glory and dominion for ever and ever.” (Revelation 1:5,6)
“Now unto Him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, to the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen!” (Jude 1:24,25).
