No — the saved and lost will not be resurrected at the same time.
The Bible says 'every man in his own order' (1 Corinthians 15:23), indicating a sequence rather than one simultaneous event. Les Feldick teaches that believers are raised before the Kingdom begins, while the lost are raised later at the Great White Throne. The saved receive a body fit for glory, and the lost receive a body fit for the lake of fire.
1 Corinthians 15:23 — Paul directly says 'every man in his own order,' showing resurrection happens in sequence rather than at the same moment.
John 5:29 — Jesus separates the resurrection of life from the resurrection of damnation, indicating two different groups.
The Bible addresses the timing of resurrection directly in 1 Corinthians 15:22-23: 'For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.' The phrase 'every man in his own order' points to a sequence rather than a single event. John 5:29 also shows two distinct outcomes: '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.' Revelation 20:5-6 further separates the first resurrection from 'the rest of the dead,' stating the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished.
Les Feldick teaches that the resurrection of the human race is not one single event. He points to 1 Corinthians 15:23's phrase 'every man in his own order' and explains from the Greek that the word 'order' is a military term meaning company, battalion, or division. So the resurrection is organized into companies. He says there are several resurrections of the believers, not all at the same time, but close in proximity. The saved are resurrected before the Kingdom begins, and the lost of all ages are resurrected later at the Great White Throne. The saved receive a body fit for glory; the lost receive a body fit for the lake of fire. Les also emphasizes that the lost are not annihilated—they continue through all eternity experiencing the second death, separated from God. He lists the resurrection companies: the lost as one group, Daniel's company (Old Testament saints), the body of Christ, tribulation saints in a separate resurrection or translation, and the firstfruits who came out of the graves on the morning of Christ's resurrection. He insists that when a verse sounds like one general resurrection, you must compare Scripture with Scripture rather than lift out a single verse.
Yes. Les Feldick says this surprises people, but the lost are going to be resurrected. They are not in their eternal state as yet; they will come out bodily to appear before the great white throne and then go to their eternal doom bodily, with a body fit for the lake of fire. He also teaches that they are not annihilated—they will experience regret and suffering throughout all the eons of eternity in the second death.
Les explains that the Greek word translated 'order' in 1 Corinthians 15:23 is a military term of organization. It means every man in his own company, battalion, or division. Therefore, the human race is not going to be resurrected at the same moment; there will be divisions. He specifically says there are several resurrections of the believers, not all at the same time, but rather close in proximity.
Les lists the lost as one group, Daniel's company (the Old Testament saints), the body of Christ that Paul writes about, and the tribulation saints in a separate resurrection or translation. He also mentions the firstfruits—those who arose from the graves on the morning of Christ's resurrection. In Revelation 20, he says all believers from Abel through the tribulation are resurrected, and 'the rest of the dead' are the lost.
The Lost Will Be Resurrected Too
Les shows from 1 Corinthians 15:22 that all are made alive in Christ, and the lost are resurrected bodily to stand before the Great White Throne with a body fit for the lake of fire.
Two Great Resurrection Groups
Les divides humanity into the saved, raised before the Kingdom begins, and the lost, raised at the Great White Throne to their eternal doom with a body fit for the lake of fire.
'Every Man in His Own Order' Means Divisions
Les teaches that the Greek word for 'order' is a military term like company or battalion, proving the resurrection is not a single simultaneous event.
'The Rest of the Dead' Are the Lost
Les explains that since all believers from Abel through the tribulation have already been resurrected in Revelation 20, 'the rest of the dead' can only be the lost.
Lost Are Not Annihilated
Les teaches that the lost are resurrected to the second death—a conscious existence separated from God—not to annihilation, and calls Christ the firstfruits of them that slept.
Multiple Resurrection Companies
Les lists the lost as one group, Daniel's company (Old Testament saints), the body of Christ, the tribulation saints, and the firstfruits—showing several resurrection groups rather than one general resurrection.
Unbelievers Raised to a Different End
Les contrasts the believer's resurrection to life with the unbeliever's resurrection to a totally different end, then explains the Greek military meaning of 'order.'
Compare Scripture With Scripture
Les warns against taking one verse that sounds like a single resurrection and instead compares all of Scripture, citing John 5:29's resurrection of life for those who have done good.
1 Corinthians 15:22: For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
Les uses this verse to show that all are made alive in Christ, including the lost, though to different destinies.
1 Corinthians 15:23: But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
This is the core verse answering the question: resurrection occurs in an order, not at the same time.
John 5:29: 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.
Jesus separates the resurrection of life from the resurrection of damnation, showing two distinct groups.
Revelation 20:5: But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
'The rest of the dead' live not again until the thousand years are finished, separating the lost from the first resurrection.
Revelation 20:6: Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
The first resurrection belongs to the blessed and holy, on whom the second death has no power.
No. Les Feldick points to 1 Corinthians 15:23, 'every man in his own order,' and explains that the Greek word 'order' is a military term meaning company or division. The saved and lost are raised at different times.
Yes. Les teaches that the lost will be resurrected bodily to appear before the Great White Throne. They will receive a body fit for the lake of fire, just as believers receive a body fit for glory.
Les describes the second death as the lost being resurrected to a life separated from God, continuing through all eternity. It is not annihilation—they will suffer and experience regret.
Yes. Les says there are several resurrections of the believers, not all at the same time. He lists the Old Testament saints in Daniel's company, the body of Christ, tribulation saints, and the firstfruits on resurrection morning.
