correct.
1. the resurrection/rapture event- 1Thessalonians4:14-18
2. the resurrection of the two witnesses - Revelation 11:11-12
3. the resurrection of the martyred great tribulation saints - Revelation 20:4
4. the resurrection of the rest of the dead - Revelation 20:13
Your claim above is "False"

There is one future resurrection of "All" that have lived, and it takes place on "The Last Day" the time of "Final Judgement"


John 5:28-29KJV
28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
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.

The Resurrection Of "All" That Have Lived Takes Place On The Last Day


John 6:39-40KJV
39 And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

The Last Day Is The Time Of Final Judgement


John 12:48KJV
48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

The pre-trib crowd falsely teaches of multiple times ofresurrections, I think douggg has 4 future resurrection
I think he believes in 3 future resurrections. One at the supposed pre-trib rapture, one when Jesus returns and one 1,000+ years later. Is there another one he believes in besides those?

Edit: I see that the resurrection of the two witnesses is his fourth future resurrection. That's 3 too many. There will only be one general resurrection of all of the dead at the same time/hour, as Daniel, Jesus and Paul taught (Daniel 12:1-2, John 5:28-29, Acts 24:15).

I also believe God's words in John 5:28-29 and how all in the Graves will come forth, John 6:39-40 the believer will be resurrected on the last day at the Lords second coming, and not anytime before it
I believe that as well, of course.

I agree.....unless there's another resurrection hidden in the bible somewhere.

How do you interpret this passage...

John 5:28 Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming in which all who are in the graves will hear His voice 29 and come forth—those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation.

You have four hours coming when the dead will be resurrected, but Jesus said one hour is coming at which point "all who are in the graves will hear His voice and come forth".

The scripture is simple and easy to understand, there's one future resurrection of all John 5:28-29, Daniel 12:1-2, it takes place on the last day John 6:39:40, at the second coming 1 Corinthians 15:23-24, this is the time of final judgement John 12:48

This is the very reason I rarely respond to the posters, to claim that there are 4 future resurrections in the light of the referenced scripture doesn't even come close to honest debate

What point are you trying to make?
It means those who are still in their graves will hear Jesus voice. I don't see it as complicated as you do.

Was my question too difficult? I'm not making it complicated at all. Your doctrine is what is complicated with its 4 separate resurrection events. I think the passage is quite straightforward. Jesus said a singular time/hour is coming at which point all who are in the graves will be resurrected. How do you reconcile your belief in 4 different resurrection events with what Jesus said?

As I said....I disagree with you.
The reasons what have been presented on this thread by me and others.

If you need to believe that there is only one resurrection....have at it.

I would imagine you're also a partial preterist.

Can you tell me in which post you gave your interpretation of John 5:28-29?

If you need to believe that there is only one resurrection....have at it.
That's what Jesus said. Do you think Jesus knew what He was talking about when He said there is a singular hour coming when all of the dead will be resurrected or not?

I would imagine you're also a partial preterist.
Wrong. I'm an amillennialist, but not a partial preterist.
