The stars will fall from the sky and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 30 [ref]And then a miracle will appear in the sky as humanity’s child arrives. All the peoples of the earth will be upset and they’ll see humanity’s child arriving on the clouds in the sky with power and great splendour. 31 There’ll be a trumpet blast as he sends out his messengers to bring together all his chosen people from every part of the earth—from one pole to the other.

24 [ref]“After those very difficult times, the sun will go dark and the moon won’t shine at night. 25 [ref]The stars will fall down out of the sky and the powers in the heavens will be shaken up. 26 [ref]Then the people will see humanity’s child in the clouds coming with incredible power and brightness. 27 He’ll send the messengers out to collect all the chosen people from the four corners of the world, from everywhere between the earth and the sky.
