1 Thessalonians 4:13-15

¹³But we don`t want you to be ignorant, brothers, concerning those who have fallen asleep, so that you don`t grieve like the rest, who have no hope. ¹⁴For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so those who have fallen asleep in Jesus will God bring with him. ¹⁵For this we tell you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left to the coming of the Lord, will in no way precede those who have fallen asleep.
