1 Corinthians 15:18
King James Version
6 Jun 2026
“Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.”
Χριστός
The one set apart and equipped for a specific task. Oil was poured on kings, priests and prophets in the Old Testament — the anointing meant: this one is chosen, this one is sent. Jesus stands up in Nazareth and reads Isaiah — and then says: this is Me. I am the one sent.

κοιμάω
To put to sleep, to fall asleep, to die. We do not grieve like those who have no hope for God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in Him.
