What does the Apostle Paul say concerning this?

Answer

"When they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction comes upon them. . . . and they shall not
escape." 1 Thess. 5: 3.
NOTE - When Christ comes, the righteous will be delivered and taken to heaven, and all the
living wicked will be suddenly destroyed, as they were at the time of the Flood. For further proof see 2
Thess. 1: 7-9; Rev. 6: 14-17; 19: 11-21; Jer. 25:30-33. There will be no general resurrection of the wicked
until the end of the one thousand years. This will leave the earth desolate and without human inhabitant
during this period.
