For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, then by means of Jesus God will bring back with him those who have fallen asleep. For we can assure you, on the Lord's own authority, that those of us who will still be living when the Lord comes will have no advantage over those who have fallen asleep. read more.

Therefore, encourage one another with this truth.

But the truth is, Christ was raised from the dead, the first to be raised of those who have fallen asleep.
