Does 1 Corinthians 15:23 list all the resurrection groups?
No. 1 Corinthians 15:23 presents Christ as the firstfruits and afterward those who are Christ's at His coming, but it does not enumerate every resurrection group. Scripture instead directs readers to other portions to discover where the various groups of believers enter the resurrection order.
Les explains that 1 Corinthians 15:23 is a jumping-off place for the resurrection of believers of all ages. It says every man in his own order or group: Christ the firstfruits, afterward they that are Christ's at His coming. But the Scripture does not list all groups right there; it sends us back to other portions to dig out where the various groups of believers come into play. In preceding programs Les covered Christ and the firstfruits, those raised after His resurrection in Matthew 27, and the body of Christ/church-age believers; the Old Testament believers still remained, best picked up in Daniel.
