When will we get our resurrection bodies ? and who will get them first?

When will we get our resurrection bodies ? and who will get them first?


We are talking about glorified bodies here is my understanding of the resurrection.

 

[ewq1938]

When will we get our resurrection bodies ? and who will get them first?

It happens at the second coming.

The dead in Christ rise first and they rise in immortal bodies. The living saints will be changed into immortals then will be raptured right after the dead in Christ resurrect.

i concur, what this means also is the the rapture happens at the end of the tribulation and not the start of tribulation. I am looking for scripture to spell this out plainly.

thanks

Here you go:

1Th 4:13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
1Th 4:14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.(second coming reference)
1Th 4:15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord (second coming reference) shall not prevent them which are asleep.
1Th 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven (second coming reference) with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: (the resurrection of the dead in Christ)
1Th 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. (the rapture)

The resurrection only happens at the second coming and the second coming can only happen after the trib has ended, and since the verses tell us the rapture happens AFTER the resurrection and second coming means these verses decisively prove the rapture is post-trib not pre-trib.
