1 Thessalonians 4:16-17
New King James Version
16 For (A)the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with (B)the trumpet of God. (C)And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 (D)Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them (E)in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus (F)we shall always be with the Lord.

Hebrews 12:25-28
New King James Version
Hear the Heavenly Voice
25 See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For (A)if they did not escape who refused Him who spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven, 26 whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, (B)“Yet once more I [a]shake not only the earth, but also heaven.” 27 Now this, “Yet once more,” indicates the (C)removal of those things that are being shaken, as of things that are made, that the things which cannot be shaken may remain.
28 Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we [b]may (D)serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear.

Zechariah 14:1-5
New King James Version
The Day of the Lord(A)
14 Behold, (B)the day of the Lord is coming,
And your [a]spoil will be divided in your midst.
2 For (C)I will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem;
The city shall be taken,
The houses [b]rifled,
And the women ravished.
Half of the city shall go into captivity,
But the remnant of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
3 Then the Lord will go forth
And fight against those nations,
As He fights in the day of battle.
4 And in that day His feet will stand (D)on the Mount of Olives,
Which faces Jerusalem on the east.
And the Mount of Olives shall be split in two,
From east to west,
(E)Making a very large valley;
Half of the mountain shall move toward the north
And half of it toward the south.
5 Then you shall flee through My mountain valley,
For the mountain valley shall reach to Azal.
Yes, you shall flee
As you fled from the (F)earthquake
In the days of Uzziah king of Judah.
