Read down to the center, where the pattern turns; then rise back out through its mirror.

  • A 15a For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord
    • B 15b shall not prevent them which are asleep.
      • C 16a For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God:
    • B' 16b and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
  • A' 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.
