This is talking about either the rapture or the second coming, depending on how you interpret it. What he's saying is that we won't all fall asleep (die) because Jesus is coming back. When he does, it will be in the twinkling of an eye-- so fast that we can't even comprehend it. ALL believers, dead or not, will be changed and be given a new body.
I don't recall where the verse you sited is located, but I suggest reading 1 Thess 4:17 through chapter five. It talks about the end of time as we know it, the second coming, etc.

Second Coming of Christ:
The second coming of Christ is the blessed hope of the church, the grand climax of the gospel. The Saviour's coming will be literal, personal, visible, and worldwide. When He returns, the righteous dead will be resurrected, and together with the righteous living will be glorified and taken to heaven, but the unrighteous will die. The almost complete fulfillment of most lines of prophecy, together with the present condition of the world, indicates that Christ's coming is imminent. The time of that event has not been revealed, and we are therefore exhorted to be ready at all times. (Titus 2:13; Heb. 9:28; John 14:1-3; Acts 1:9-11; Matt. 24:14; Rev. 1:7; Matt. 24:43, 44; 1 Thess. 4:13-18; 1 Cor. 15:51-54; 2 Thess. 1:7-10; 2:8; Rev. 14:14-20; 19:11-21; Matt. 24; Mark 13; Luke 21; 2 Tim. 3:1-5; 1 Thess. 5:1-6.)

He was mistaken on that one. But give the guy some slack. He was right on many other things.
