That Ye Sorrow Not...

"But I would not have you ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope."  I Thess. 4:13

I am really curious to know where the Chinese Christians draw the line on grief over a deceased, Christian brother or sister.  I think we need to ask ourselves where the line is between appropriate Christian grief and ancestor worship, especially for a spouse that has passed on.  I ask the question because Paul obviously didn't want us as Christians to grieve as those that have no hope.
