1 | Who's in 1st and 2nd resurrection? | Rev 20:5 | Chusarcik | 73673 | ||
In trying to understand Revelation 20:4,which states the "rest of the dead" did not come to life until the thousand year Millenium was ended, I seem to be finding there are differing opinions regarding who the "rest of the dead" are. It seems premillennialists says "the rest of the dead" are all unbelievers. Some other groups seem to think the "rest of the dead" are everyone except those believers who were beheaded during the tribulation.In otherwords, they think both believers and non believers will take part in the gret white throne judgment in Revelation 20:11. At this point I'm confused as to which view point is Biblically correct and would like some opinions backed up by scripture. Thanks,Chusarcik. | ||||||
2 | Who's in 1st and 2nd resurrection? | Rev 20:5 | Morant61 | 73674 | ||
Greetings Chusarcik! I'm quite sure that no one can give an answer that everyone will agree with, but here is my position on the first and second resurrections. The first resurrection is made up of several stages. a) Christ Himself - 1 Cor. 15:20. b) The Old Testament saints - Mt. 27:52-53. c) The deceased New Testament saints who are raised at the rapture 1 Thess. 4:16. d) Those saints who died after the rapture - Rev. 20:4. According to Rev. 20:6, I believe all believers (regardless of when they are saved) are part of the first resurrection. Therefore, the 'rest of the dead' must refer to those who have died prior to the beginning of the 1,000 year reign, but who did not accept Christ. I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
