Welcome to the Preached Word. Today, we turn to the trustworthy promises of God's Word in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 to find assurance in the face of death. Join us as we explore how Christ's finished work has removed the curse of sin, transforming a believer's death from a dreaded end into a blessed and glorious passage into the presence of the Lord. We will contemplate the great comfort of the resurrection and the complete, everlasting bliss secured for all who are in Christ.
