1 Thessalonians 4:13-15

Noyes(i) 13 But we would not have you ignorant, brethren, concerning those who are sleeping, that ye may not sorrow, as others do, who have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, then also will God, through Jesus, bring again with him those who have fallen asleep. 15 For this we say to you in the word of the Lord, that we who are living, we who are left till the coming of the Lord, shall not anticipate those who have fallen asleep.
