1 Thessalonians 4 1 - Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort [you] by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, [so] ye would abound more and more. 2 - For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus. 3 - For this is the will of God, [even] your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication: 4 - That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour; 5 - Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God: 6 - That no [man] go beyond and defraud his brother in [any] matter: because that the Lord [is] the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified. 7 - For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness. 8 - He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit. 9 - But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another. 10 - And indeed ye do it toward all the brethren which are in all Macedonia: but we beseech you, brethren, that ye increase more and more; 11 - And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you; 12 - That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and [that] ye may have lack of nothing. 13 - But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. 14 - For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. 15 - For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive [and] remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. 16 - For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17 - Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 18 - Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
