Bible Note: The falling asleep is mentioned occassionally and implied frequently in the New Testament. The term "fallen asleep" is used to describe death. The most straightforward example is John 11:11-13, "... He said to them, 'Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep; but I go, so that I may awaken him out of sleep.' The disciples then said to Him, 'Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will recover.' Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that He was speaking of literal sleep." Another good passage is 1 Corinthians 12-18. Some others are Ps. 146:4, 1 Cor. 15:6, 1 Thes. 4:14. 1 Corinthians 15:42-44 tell how believers' bodies will be resurrected and live, "... It is sown a perishable body, it is raised an imperishable body; it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body." I've found that http://www.bbie.org/english/ gives sound, unbiased references and support for questions like this. |
