Subject: Is the first resurection in Mat 27:52 |
Bible Note: Sorry, benjamite. I actually was agreeing with you. I didn't mean to leave the impression that you said anything wrong. I was just trying to paint with a very broad brush. The way I understand it [and that is not a claim to infallibility :)] what is called the "first" resurrection is comprised of righteous souls only--beginning with the resurrection of Christ and ending at the beginning of the "thousand years." And what is called the "second" resurrection involves only the unrighteous souls, and does not occur until after the "thousand years" are finished. So, whether it be in Daniel or Revelation, that's the way I see it. Keep up the good work. Kind regards, Tim D. Cormier Tennessee Preacher |
