Daniel 7:13 NKJV
"I was watching in the night visions, And behold, One like the Son of Man, Coming with the
clouds of heaven!
Joel 2:2 NKJV
A day of darkness and gloominess, A day of
clouds and thick darkness,
Like the morning clouds spread over the mountains.
Nahum 1:3 NKJV
The Lord is slow to anger and great in power, And will not at all acquit the wicked. The Lord has His way In the whirlwind and in the storm, And the
clouds are the dust of His feet.
Zephaniah 1:15 NKJV
That day is a day of wrath, A day of trouble and distress, A day of devastation and desolation, A day of darkness and gloominess, A day of
clouds and thick darkness,
Matthew 24:30 NKJV
Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the
clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
Matthew 26:64 NKJV
Jesus said to him, "It is as you said. Nevertheless, I say to you, hereafter you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming on the
clouds of heaven."
Mark 14:62 NKJV
Jesus said, "I am. And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming with the
clouds of heaven."
1 Thessalonians 4:17 NKJV
Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the
clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.
Since the Lord comes on a cloudy day in clouds from heaven, and we are gathered during a cloudy foggy day, could we not be gathered in the clouds without leaving the ground? Joel even describes the clouds as "clouds over a mountain" Where does the Lord return? Mount of Olives???? Since "air" means breathe and not "atmosphere air" it is very plausible that nobody is leaving the earth to meet the Lord but rather on a cloudy or foggy mountaintop.
