1 Thes 4 and 1 Cor 15:50-54: The dead in Christ are raised and we who remain are "transformed" from corruptible to incorruptible. Then, together the resurrected and transformed rise together, or are "gathered," to be with Him. Mat 24:15, 21, 29-31.

I Thess. 5:23 says man is spirit, soul, and body. Salvation is the changing of all three. When we accept Christ, our spirit is changed. It was dead (Eph. 2:1); now it has life. We call this justification. The changing of the soul (mind, will, and emotions) is what we call sanctification. Now Christians are awaiting glorification, the changing of the body. When we are resurrected to be with Christ, our body (corruptible) will be changed (incorruptible.) God Bless

Life doesn't end after death.Those who accepted an believed in Jesus will be raised again but not in flesh as we are here on earth but with a "new heavenly body".All who believe will be with Him in Heaven.

that means when the Lord comes back the dead that died in Christ will be raised up with heavenly bodies,and will raise then those that are living.

when the dead are raised it meant up on the roman cross. cause by that point they knew they were dead.
