13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. 15 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 shall not prevent them which are asleep. 16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 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. 18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18).
Yesterday we talked about some information provided about Christ’s return. These verses for today add additional detail. The reason we are given this detail is that there will be people that are alive when Christ returns. If you have never thought about this idea, give it some thought. It appears that there will be people in the future that will never physically die. And this was the intent from the beginning. Remember that death is a result of sin. The fact is, we were originally designed by our Creator for eternal life, and the was to be a physical life. Maranatha
