1 Thessalonians 4:14-16 For if we believe, that Jesus died and rose again, so will God bring with him those also that sleep in Christ.

Wesley⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁴ For if we believe, that Jesus died and rose again, so will God bring with him those also that sleep in Christ. ¹⁵ For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left to the coming of the Lord, shall not prevent them that are asleep. ¹⁶ For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven, with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first.
