But it is not so! Christ did rise from the dead, he was the first to be reaped of those who sleep in death. For since death came by man, by man came also resurrection from the dead; as all die in Adam, so shall all be made alive in Christ.read more.
But each in his own division: ??Christ the first to be reaped; after that, all who belong to Christ, at his arrival.

We would like you, brothers, to understand about those who are asleep in death. You must not grieve for them, like the rest of men who have no hope. Since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, then it follows that by means of Jesus God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep. For we tell you, as the Lord has told us, that we the living, who survive till the Lord comes, are by no means to take precedence of those who have fallen asleep.read more.
The Lord himself will descend from heaven with a loud summons, when the archangel calls and the trumpet of God sounds; the dead in Christ will rise first; then we the living, who survive, will be caught up along with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall be with the Lord for ever.

But I will allow my two witnesses to prophesy for twelve hundred and sixty days, clad in sackcloth (they are the two olive-trees and the two lampstands which stand before the Lord of the earth): whoever tries to harm them, fire will issue from their mouth and consume their enemies; whoever should try to harm them, so must he be killed."read more.
They have power to shut up the sky, so that no rain falls during the days when they are prophesying; and they have power over the waters, to turn them into blood, and also to smite the earth with all manner of plagues as often as they choose. But, when they have finished their testimony, the Beast that ascends from the abyss will make war on them and conquer them and kill them, and their corpses will lie in the streets of that great City whose mystical name is Sodom and Egypt ??where their Lord also was crucified. For three days and a half men from all peoples and tribes and tongues and nations look at their corpses, refusing to let their corpses be buried; and the dwellers on earth will gloat over them and rejoice, sending presents to congratulate one another ??for these two prophets were a torment to the dwellers on earth. But after three days and a half the breath of life from God entered them; they stood on their feet (terror fell on those who saw them)

And I saw thrones with people sitting on them, who were allowed to judge ??saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and God's word, those who would not worship the Beast or his statue, and who would not receive his mark on their forehead or hand; they came to life and reigned along with the Christ for a thousand years.

As for the rest of the dead, they did not come to life until the thousand years were completed. This is the first resurrection.
