2. There is no resurrection during the millennium. The first resurrection which occurs just before the millennium during the "last day" are only of the anointed Bride Class (144,000, whether technically more or not, those severing as kings and priests during the millennium). The second resurrection is the general resurrection after the millennium, after Satan has been destroyed, and this resurrection of both the "righteous and the unrighteous" is for final judgment and is called "JUDGMENT DAY."
GLamota,
You know full well that this statement is not true. We had a discussion here on h2o regarding this and neither you nor Mark Miller and/or his followers were able to support this view, also claiming that the Revelation is sequential on this point. I pointed out that not only the 144,000 but also the Nations were raised and existed during the 1,000 years simply by using REV chapter 20 itself. Furthermore our Lord's prophecies regarding this same kingdom recorded at Matthew 25 refutes you as such a selection occurs when he comes or arrives. Why then do you insist on teaching this? Are you ready now to prove it from scripture? Do you not know that no one can enter the kingdom for any reason unless first they die just as our Lord showed the way? Why do you in effect teach that there is a way to bypass the resurrection and the life, the way the Watchtower still does today by telling their followers that some will simply walk in unscathed?
