They, just like the 50 or so generations of believers since, like believers in our generation, like even Witness Lee, believed the Lord was coming back in their/our generation.

Like my Pentecostal preacher friend tells me: "We're living in the last days."

That's what Paul though about when the last Adam would become the life-giving spirit. He thought it would happen before he, and others, slept.

They all sleep.
