What did Paul mean by "we" in 1 Thess 4:17

By Dan Miller on Thu, 01/15/26

1Th 4:16-17 For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.
Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord.

When Paul said, "Then WE who are alive...," did he believe he would be still alive at this meeting in the air?
