Bible Question: Who are the dead in Christ spoken of in 1st Thessalonians 4:16 |
Bible Answer: Greetings kiddstuff, Here is some helpful commentary.. "4:15 ... The Thessalonians had evidently been concerned that those among them who died would miss their place in the great events when the Lord comes, and Paul assures them this will not be the case."
