1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about
those who are asleep, that you may not grieve as others
do who have no hope. For since we believe that Jesus
died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will
bring with him those who have fallen asleep. For this we
declare to you by a word from the Lord, that we who are
alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will not
precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord
himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command,
with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the
trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then
we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together
with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so
we will always be with the Lord. Therefore encourage one
another with these words
