TOPIC: THE FIRST RESURRECTION                                                
May  Saturday 30th
Text: Daniel 12:1-5 
Key verse: Revelation 20: 6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in 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 is termed the resurrection to life eternal while the second resurrection is termed the resurrection to eternal damnation. The first resurrection is in five stages: (i) The resurrection of Christ the first fruit of the resurrection ii) The resurrection of the Church age saints (iii) The resurrection of the two witnesses (iv) The resurrection of the tribulation saints (v) The resurrection of the Old Testament saints. The first resurrection is made up of five different phases, but the second resurrection is just one resurrection.
The first stage of the first resurrection began with the resurrection of Christ. It shall be followed by the resurrection of the church age saints who believed in Christ and died as righteous people. Therefore, the resurrection of the believers in Christ at the Rapture is the second stage of the first resurrection. The third stage of the first resurrection is the resurrection of the two witnesses at the end of the great tribulation. The two witnesses will resurrect, and a voice from heaven will say, “Come up hither” (Revelation 11:12). Then they will ascend into heaven in a wonderful and glorious manner while their enemies behold.
The fourth stage of the first resurrection is the resurrection of the Tribulation saints. At the end of the tribulation, these tribulation saints shall resurrect and meet with Jesus in heaven and shall return with Him at His second coming physically to the earth. The fifth stage of the first resurrection concerns the Old Testament saints, who died before Jesus was born into the world. Their souls are in heaven. They shall resurrect and come back with Jesus to the earth, because God would have concluded His program of the 70th week, which is the seven years of the Great Tribulation. With the resurrection of the Old Testament saints, Jesus will continue His program with Israel to rule as the son of David over the kingdom of David.
Thought for the day: God’s end time plans are definite, clear and systematic.
Song for the day: Jesus shall reign for ever more, He shall reign for ever more
Bible reading for the day: 1 Chronicles 28-29; John 11:47-57

For taking your time to study remain blessed. August Tuesday 27th TOPIC: CORRECT WATER BAPTISM TEXT: Mark 16:15-16 KEY VERSE: Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. The believer requires water baptism. The baptism that Jesus commanded is in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is done by immersion in water because the three Persons are One. In Acts of the Apostles, the people were baptizing in the name of Jesus. They used the phrase “in the name of Jesus” to indicate that the baptism was carried out as authorized by Jesus, and the baptism authorized by Jesus is that which is done in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is not to say that they dip people in water and say, “I baptize you in the name of Jesus.” The name of Jesus cannot represent the Godhead. The Father is not Jesus, the Holy Spirit is not Jesus, Jesus is God who be
