14For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again [as in fact He did], even so God [in this same way—by raising them from the dead] will bring with Him those [believers] who have fallen asleep in Jesus.
14We believe that Jesus died and rose again. When he returns, many who believe in him will have died already. We believe that God will bring them back with Jesus.
14We believe that Jesus died and he rose again after death. So we also believe that people who have died as Christians will live again. When God brings Jesus back, he will also bring back with him the Christians who have died.
