audio by title bible minute are you ignorant part 5

In 1 Thessalonians 4 we read that Paul did not want the Thessalonians to be ignorant concerning those were asleep in Christ. We do not sorrow as those who are without Christ do, when our dear ones die. Paul uses the term sleep as a most beautiful figure for the distressing Thessalonians. The resurrection of Jesus is the guarantee that all who are his will be likewise raised.
