1 Cor 15:23
2 Thess 2:1
Because the bible teaches there is just a single resurrection of the saved.
Matt 22:30, Luke 14:14, Acts 24:15.
Since these verses have been quoted many times on this thread, your claims are nothing but lies. Obviously.
And you haven't even tried to explain what ANY of these verses teach, other than what I believe they teach.
Please prove this claim with Scripture.
How does this equal receiving a glorified body? It doesn't. And since Jesus is THE "firstfruits", which is defined in Acts 26:23 as being the FIRST to be resurrected (all in spite of the many people brought back to life from the OT through Jesus' earthly ministry), NO ONE gets a glorified body BEFORE Jesus did. No one.
The obvious problem with pretribbers is trying to force some agricultural notion with the resurrection. Paul made no such link.
In 1 Cor 15:23, he used "firstfruits" to indicate that Jesus' resurrection was the "first production" of the resurrection., meaning Jesus was the FIRST to receive a glorified body. And in that verse, he very clearly said that all believers will receive their glorified bodies "when He comes". It really couldn't be any more clear.
But you guys go off the rails and come up with this 3 part resurrection, parallel to a harvest. No where in the Bible is the resurrection compared or equated with a harvest.
All verses regarding the resurrection of believers is in the SINGULAR, so believe it.
Resurrection ain't no harvest. That's just presumption.
