The First Resurrection
G. H. Lang Soft cover booklet; 16 pgs. The resurrection of the dead is a basic tenet of the faith. How well do you know it? Do you know the difference between the first resurrection and the resurrection of the “rest of the dead” (Rev. 20:5-6)? Jesus said the first is a resurrection from among the dead (Luke 20:35), leaving the rest of the dead behind until “the last day” (John 11:24). Jesus said that those of the first resurrection are the ones counted worthy to attain to the next age- what age is that? The age of reigning 1000 years. Who then is worthy to be raised first and reign with Christ? Read this booklet by Lang to find out. Hint: Paul himself did not have the assurance that he would attain to it when he wrote Philippians (3:11-12).
