    1Thessalonians 4:13-18 (Pt. 3)  But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus. 15 For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. 16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God.

Aviano Baptist Church's mission statement embraces all that Jesus has commanded His church to do.  As we in the church learn to love Jesus more, we are coming to fulfill His great commandment to “love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength” (Mark 12:30).  As we lead more to love Jesus, we are attempting to fulfill the second part of the great commandment, to “love your neighbor as yourself” (Mark 12: 31).  We also intend through this part of our mission statement to fulfill the Lord’s Great Commission given in Matthew 28:19-20 and Acts 1:8.
