The document discusses the biblical concept of resurrection from the dead through Jesus Christ. It provides several Bible verses that describe two resurrections - one for believers who will live eternally, and another for unbelievers who will face eternal damnation. The resurrection process is described as having three parts: Christ as the firstfruits, a rapture and resurrection of believers at His return, and a final resurrection and rapture of tribulation saints after Christ's second coming.

1. Resurrection:
Flesh brought to life after death.

2. Saved Man
•Dead Body
•Flesh crucified
•Live Soul
•Soul is saved
•Live Spirit
•Spirit Born again

3. Romans 6:5
For if we have been
planted together
in the likeness of
his death, we shall
be also in the
likeness of his
resurrection

4. Romans 8:10-11
And if Christ be in you, the body is dead
because of sin; but the Spirit is life because
of righteousness.
11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus
from the dead dwell in you, he that raised
up Christ from the dead shall also quicken
your mortal bodies by his Spirit that
dwelleth in you.
Romans 6:5
For if we have been planted together in the
likeness of his death, we shall be also in the
likeness of his resurrection:

5. Philippians 3:21
Who shall change our vile body, that it may be
fashioned like unto his glorious body, according
to the working whereby he is able even to
subdue all things unto himself.
1 John 3:2
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth
not yet appear what we shall be: but we know
that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him;
for we shall see him as he is.
Col 3:4
When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall
ye also appear with him in glory.

6. 2 Resurrections
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.
John 5:29
And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the
resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto
the resurrection of damnation.
Daniel 12:2
And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall
awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame
and everlasting contempt.

7. The 2nd Resurrection
Revelation 20:4-5
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; and they
lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
5 (But the rest of the dead lived not again until the
thousand years were finished.) This is the first
resurrection.

8. Revelation 20:11-14
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.
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.
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. (1 Timothy 5:6)
14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is
the second death.

9. 1st Resurrection
1. Jesus Christ (the “first fruits,” 1 Corinthians
15:20 Mat. 27:52-53), paved the way for the
resurrection of all who believe in Him. There
was a resurrection of the Jerusalem saints which
should be included
2. Still to come are the resurrection of “the dead in
Christ” at the Lord’s return (1 Thessalonians
4:16)
3. The resurrection of the Tribulation saints. (Mat.
5:8,22:10-11,24:31, 25:1-13, Rev. 12:17, Luke
12:36)

10. 1 Corinthians 15
20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits
of them that slept.
23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward
they that are Christ's at his coming.
24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the
kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down
all rule and all authority and power.
37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall
be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other
grain:
38 But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed
his own body.
50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the
kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall
all be changed

the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our

14. Matthew 27:52-53
52 And the graves were opened; and many
bodies of the saints which slept arose,
53 And came out of the graves after his
resurrection, and went into the holy city, and
appeared unto many.

15. Why is First fruit offering important?

15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the
Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this
fold: them also I must bring, and they shall
hear my voice; and there shall be one fold,
and one shepherd.

17. Harvest
1 Corinthians 15
1. 20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and
become the firstfruits of them that slept.
2. 23 But every man in his own order: Christ the
firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his
coming.
3. 24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have
delivered up the kingdom to God, even the
Father; when he shall have put down all rule and
all authority and power.

18. Church-age Rapture
• One Chaste virgin (2 Cor. 11:2)
• Called up before the mark of the beast (Rev.
14:9-10)
• By a voice that sounds like a trumpet (1 Thes.
4:16)

is not talking to (Ex. 19:16,18 John 12:28-30
Job 37:1-5)

10:3)

system (John 10:3)

20. 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 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:
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.

21. Revelation 6:17
For the great day of his wrath is come; and who
shall be able to stand?
1 Thessalonians 1:10
And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he
raised from the dead, even Jesus, which
delivered us from the wrath to come.

22. 1 Thessalonians 5:9
For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but
to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

23. The final stage of the 1st Resurrection
Revelation 12:17
And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and
went to make war with the remnant of her
seed, which keep the commandments of God,
and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

24. Isaiah 24
21 And it shall come to pass in that day, that
the LORD shall punish the host of the high ones
that are on high, and the kings of the earth upon
the earth.
22 And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners
are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the
prison, and after many days shall they be visited.
23 Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun
ashamed, when the LORD of hosts shall reign in
mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his
ancients gloriously.

25. Isaiah 24
13 When thus it shall be in the
midst of the land among the
people, there shall be as the
shaking of an olive tree, and as
the gleaning grapes when the
vintage is done.

26. Jeremiah 6
O ye children of Benjamin, gather yourselves to
flee out of the midst of Jerusalem, and blow
the trumpet in Tekoa, and set up a sign of fire
in Bethhaccerem: for evil appeareth out of the
north, and great destruction.
9 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, They shall
throughly glean the remnant of Israel as a
vine: turn back thine hand as a grape gatherer
into the baskets.

27. If these people in the tribulation are a
"remnant", then that tells you that there
was a harvest prior to this time. By
definition, you cannot have a remnant
unless these are "the remaining people,
the rest."

28. Revelation 14:15-16
15 And another angel came out of the temple,
crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the
cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the
time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest
of the earth is ripe.
16 And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his
sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped.

29. Isaiah 17:5-6
5 And it shall be as when the harvestman
gathereth the corn, and reapeth the ears with
his arm; and it shall be as he that gathereth
ears in the valley of Rephaim.
6 Yet gleaning grapes shall be left in it, as the
shaking of an olive tree, two or three berries
in the top of the uppermost bough, four or
five in the outmost fruitful branches thereof,
saith the LORD God of Israel.

30. Isaiah 26:20-21
20 Come, my people, enter thou into thy
chambers, and shut thy doors about thee:
hide thyself as it were for a little moment,
until the indignation be overpast.
21 For, behold, the LORD cometh out of his place
to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their
iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her
blood, and shall no more cover her slain.

31. James 5:7
7 Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the
coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman
waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and
hath long patience for it, until he receive the
early and latter rain.

32. Mat. 13:24-30,38-39
but gather the wheat into my barn.
38 The field is the world; the good seed are the
children of the kingdom; but the tares are the
children of the wicked one;
39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the
harvest is the end of the world; and the
reapers are the angels.

33. Trib. Rapture
Rev. 14:15-16
15 And another angel came out of the temple,
crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the
cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the
time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest
(end of the world ) of the earth is ripe.
16 And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his
sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped.

34. 2nd Advent
Revelation 14:17-18
17 And another angel came out of the temple
which is in heaven, he also having a sharp
sickle.
18 And another angel came out from the altar,
which had power over fire; and cried with a
loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle,
saying, Thrust in thy sharp sickle, and gather
the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her
grapes are fully ripe.

35. Deuteronomy 32:31-32
31 For their rock is not as our Rock,
even our enemies themselves being
judges.
32 For their vine is of the vine of
Sodom, and of the fields of
Gomorrah: their grapes are grapes of
gall, their clusters are bitter:

36. In Revelation 14:15–16 a sickle is put into the
“harvest of the earth,” like a wheat crop. The
grain is harvested and reaped for God and put
into the barn (Deut. 16:9; Isa. 17:6; Matt.
13:39; James 5:7), but here in Revelation
14:18–19, we find something that has
incurred the wrath of God, and God wishes it
to be destroyed ;

37. it is called the “vine of the earth.” It is not
“gathered into the barn,” but it is cast into
“the winepress of God,” and then it is
stamped on until blood comes out of it three
feet high for a space of about 160 miles! (This
shows us clearly that the Second Advent is
found in Rev. 14:18–19, while a
post Tribulation Rapture is found in Rev.
14:15-16
