And now, brothers and sisters, we want you to know what will happen to the believers who have died so U will not grieve like people who have no hope. For since we believe that Jesus died and was raised to life again, we also believe that when Jesus returns, God will bring back with Him the believers who have died. (1 Thessalonians 4: 13-14). NLT. For The Lord Himself will come down from Heaven with a commanding shout, with the voice of the Archangel, and the trumpet call of God. First the Christians who have died will rise from their graves. Then, together with them, we who are still alive and remain on the earth will be caught up in the clouds to meet the LORD in the air. Then we will be with The LORD forever. SO ENCOURAGE EACH OTHER WITH THESE WORDS (1Thessalonians 4: 16-18)NLT.
