First Thessalonians | Forever With the Lord – 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18

Pastor AJ Rankin preaches from 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18.

Everyone wants to know what happens in the end. It isn’t idle curiosity. Death is coming for every one of us and everyone we love, unless Jesus returns first. The Thessalonians had already buried loved ones, and Paul didn’t want them to grieve like people with nothing to hope for. He doesn’t tell them to stop weeping. Instead, he reminds them of what they believe—Jesus died, rose, and is coming back. That changes how we live, how we face death, and how we comfort one another.
