1 Thessalonians 4:13 in Context — 1 Thessalonians 4

11 E procurai viver quietos, trantando dos vossos próprios assuntos, e trabalhando com as vossas próprias mãos, como já vos mandamos;

12 para que andeis de maneira respeitosa com os que estão de fora, e não necessiteis de nada.

13 Mas irmãos, não quero que desconheçais acerca dos que morreram, para que não vos entristeçais como os outros que não têm esperança.

14 Pois, se cremos que Jesus morreu e ressuscitou, assim também aos que morreram em Jesus, Deus os trará de volta com ele.

15 Pois dizemos isto pela palavra do Senhor, que nós, os que ficarmos vivos até a vinda do Senhor, não iremos antes dos que morreram.
