1 Thessalonians 4:12-14
New Life Version
12 By doing this, you will be respected by those who are not Christians. Then you will not be in need and others will not have to help you.
The Lord Is Coming Again
13 Christian brothers, we want you to know for sure about those who have died. You have no reason to have sorrow as those who have no hope. 14 We believe that Jesus died and then came to life again. Because we believe this, we know that God will bring to life again all those who belong to Jesus.
