In brief:

Matt 24:27-31, sun darkened, moon not give her light, stars fall from heaven, send His angels to gather His elect from one end of heaven to the other; Matt 24:38, 39 As in the days of Noah... so shall the coming of the Son of Man be; Ezekiel chapters 40-48 The rebuilt Temple; II Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up; Rev 20:4,5,6 I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years; Zech 8:22-23 ten men from all the nations will grasp the garment of a Jew saying, "let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you."; Zech 12:2 "Behold I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that causes reeling to all the peoples (nations) around; Zech 12:6 “In that day I will make the clans of Judah like a firepot among pieces of wood and a flaming torch among sheaves, so they will consume on the right hand and on the left all the surrounding peoples, while the inhabitants of Jerusalem again dwell on their own sites in Jerusalem.; 12:9“And in that day I will set about to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.; Zech 14:2-5 The Lord comes back and splits the mount of Olives in two and destroys all the nations gathered against Israel for battle; Zech 14:12 "Now this will be the (supposedly Nuclear War) plague with which the LORD will strike all the peoples who have gone to war against Jerusalem; their flesh will rot while they stand on their feet, and their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongue will rot in their mouth. "; I Thessalonians 4:16 (The Rapture) For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. I Corinthians 15:51 Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 15:52 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.; Acts 1:9 And after He had said these things, He was lifted up while they were looking on, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. 1:10 And as they were gazing intently into the sky while He was going, behold, two men in white clothing stood beside them. 1:11 They also said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, will come in just the same way as you have watched Him go into heaven.”

Each of these will be examined in detail, in the space below.
