Brother budgie, I say this with all manner of kindness in the Lord, but I can’t agree with you on certain aspects post-trib and I am of a post-trib persuasion!! There are so many versions of pre-trib and post-trib that any end-time belief is not set in stone Biblically, surely you must acknowledge that. About the resurrection, Paul said in Acts 24.15 “…having a hope in God, which these men cherish themselves, that there shall certainly be a resurrection OF BOTH THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE WICKED,” sounds like two resurrections to me!! And you stated that, “Scripture is very clear, no one’s thoughts or ideas, but the Holy Inspired Word of God” And what about Revelation 20.5 “The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended, this is THE FIRST RESURRECTION.” When Paul states that there is a FIRST resurrection, he implies there is another following after or why even bother using “the first”?My point is brother, like with psalm1, there is absolute Truth (like with the deity of Christ), and there are no inconsistencies with the deity of Christ. OH but there are hundreds of inconsistencies with pre-trib and post-trib both! Just saying.I know you won't agree with me, brother and five years from now, you'll probably still be on here arguing about it! God bless you brother,Lisa

Thanks you for your replyThere must be a misunderstandingOf you look at all of my posts you will see that I have myself stated that there is a resurrection of the just and 1000 years later a resurrection of the unjustI was in this post referring to the resurrection of those in Christ before the rapture as Paul describesAs Paul says we will be raised then raptured
If you look at my first comments at the beginning of this thread you will see that I even gave the verses for the 2 ResurrectionsFirst Resurrection those in Christ that are rapturedSecond or Last Resurrection those at the end of the 1000 years for judgementI totally agree with Jesus, Paul and Revelation as well as Old Testament teaching.One Resurrection of JustOne Resurrection of unjustIn that exact order
