    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches. In context Paul is talking about the good Olive tree of Israel, which the Gentile converts are also grafted into and made fellow citizens of Israel. Christ is the root of the good Olive tree Israel.

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    This topic is not about being born again, it is about “the first resurrection” as is mentioned and defined in Rev. 20:5-6

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    Right, but they were still talking about the first resurrection being done and in the past. That is also what Amils are saying, but with a twist by saying the dead in Christ are not bodily resurrected until the second resurrection at the great white throne judgment. Paul did not agree with the...

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    It is what I have heard myself from several Amil believers on this forum.

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    Right, but Amils have confessed that they believe Jesus alone being raised from the dead IS the first resurrection as is mentioned and defined in Rev. 20:5-6.

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    That is the firstfruits (plural) of Israel that were raised right after Jesus was resurrected. These are shown here… Revelation 14:4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from...

    They had the preaching of the Testimony of Jesus Christ by the apostles and Paul.

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    Being born again of the Holy Spirit is not the first resurrection mentioned in Rev. 20:5-6. Rev. 20:5-6 is talking about those who were physically killed ( the dead in Christ) being resurrected bodily to life before the thousand year reign. Going back to the idea of the first resurrection...

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    They were saying the first resurrection was past because they were trying to overthrow the faith of believers. Why would believers be concerned about the second resurrection?

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    I’ve heard from other Amil followers that say they take part spiritually in Jesus’ resurrection. But to clarify I asked, so what resurrection do you believe the dead in Christ are a part of, the first or second resurrection? And they confessed the second resurrection. This proves they believe...

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    Here is why Amils believe the first resurrection as is mentioned in Rev. 20:5-6 is past. They have confessed that they believe Jesus alone being raised from the dead IS the first resurrection as is mentioned and defined in Rev. 20:5-6. Now let me compare this to a harvest, as does the words of...

    The term being born again vs. the term resurrection.

    This comment of yours below exposes your confusion… Spiritual Israelite said: So, His resurrection was the first resurrection from the dead. Hello? How many first resurrections are there? (End quote) You/Amils believe Jesus alone being raised from the dead is the entire first resurrection...

    The difference between The Resurrection and the first resurrection.

    Well they have to ignore the context completely in order to redefine what is clearly defined in Rev. 20:5-6. And here is why they are ignoring the context and the definition of the first resurrection as is clearly defined in Rev. 20:5-6. Spiritual Israelite said: So, His resurrection was the...

    The difference between The Resurrection and the first resurrection.

    That speaks to the heart of Amil misunderstanding. The first resurrection as is defined in Rev. 20:5-6 is of many not just One. You need to learn about harvest time, because the first of the first fruits to be harvested is not the entire harvest. 1 Corinthians 15:20 But now is Christ risen...

    The difference between The Resurrection and the first resurrection.

    Falsely accusing someone is not showing them they are wrong. You didn’t even know the point I was making from the start until I said this…. Stewardofthemystery said: Exactly, I’m glad someone else can see it for what it is. They are trying to redefine the meaning of the first resurrection that...

    The difference between The Resurrection and the first resurrection.

    Because all one needs to do is look at the context between Acts 26:23 and Rev. 20:5-6. No you didn’t Acts 26:23 is talking about Jesus being the first to be resurrected from the dead. Jesus is the first fruits OF the first resurrection. Amils claim Jesus ALONE is the first resurrection as...

    The difference between The Resurrection and the first resurrection.

    It is true, Acts 26:23 is not in the context of Rev. 20:5-6.

    The difference between The Resurrection and the first resurrection.

    My friends don’t falsely accuse me of rejecting the words of Jesus Christ. Good day

    The term being born again vs. the term resurrection.

    I know, it’s sad you cannot tell the difference between the saints being born again spiritually to being bodily resurrected at the last day. I’ll leave to your confusion.
