There's Only Going To Be 2 Resurrection by obonujoker(m): 7:03am On Aug 24, 2021
Christians and believers alike irrespective of denomination believe that children of God will be resurrected at the end/prior to the end of the world. Jesus and the apostles confirmed it.

Luke 14:14 And thou shalt be blessed; for they cannot recompense thee: for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just.

Acts 24:15 And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.

However it is pertinent to know that resurrection will happen TWICE, one for the children of God, and the other for every other one that didn't partake in the 1st resurrection. Now when will these resurrections take place?

THE FIRST RESURRECTION

Otherwise known as the resurrection of the just, those that live a holy and examplary life through the Lord Jesus Christ and by faith which will also be accounted for them as righteousness.

1 Corinthians 15:20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
15:51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.


The bolded: At the last trump! This tells us that the first resurrection will happen when the last of the trumpets of God will be blown.
some persons actually though President Trump of America was the last trump though grin. So who blows this trumpet and why?

1 Thessalonians 4:13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
4:14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
4:15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.


Jesus himself as the scripture has said. Now who are the dead at this resurrection?

Revelation 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands;[/b]and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
20:5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. [b]This is the first resurrection.

20:6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.


From the scriptures above, it can be seen that those persecuted by the Antichrist will be amongst those who are raised from the dead at the RAPTURE of the saints, well except we have another Bible to counter this assertions as stated in the bible...

THE SECOND RESURRECTION

This will be the final resurrection, anyone who didn't make the FIRST RESURRECTION, must make the second resurrection. At this resurrection, all enemies of God is destroyed in the lake of Fire e.g Devil, Death, Hell etc... This resurrection, is also called the GREAT WHITE THRONE JUDGMENT, where everyone will be judged as their works maybe...

Revelation 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
20:11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
20:12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
20:13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.


Now we have to strive to be amongst those that will partake in the first resurrection.

The only way is to accept Jesus as our Lord and personal saviour, as we saw above, Jesus died and resurrected, that we might be like him and be amongst those that will inherit the NEW EARTH recreated by God Almighty.

And for those who believe you'd be raptured before the Antichrist is revealed, please think again, and our hope is God will keep us at the darkest hours .. Amen
