2 Corinthians 11:1-2
I wish that you could put up with a little "foolishness" from me, but you really are doing that already.
Ephesians 5:22-33
Wives, you should submit to your own husbands, as you would to the Lord.
1 Thessalonians 4:13
But we want you to be informed, brothers, concerning those who have fallen asleep [in death] so that you do not grieve, as other people do [i.e., the unsaved], who have no hope.
1 Thessalonians 4:15
For we say this to you by [the authority of] the word of the Lord [Note: Paul was either quoting what Jesus had previously said, or was giving a revelation he had received from the Lord. See I Cor. 14:37], that we [Christians] who are [still] alive, who are left [on earth] when the Lord returns, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. [Note: The point Paul is making is that the living will not be "changed" (I Cor. 15:51-52) and taken to heaven before the dead are raised].
