... living WILL NOT precede the dead in entering the kingdom, because if you admit that, then the entire idea of a rapture pr ior to the first resurrection is debunked.

Revelation 20 speaks of those who have part in the first resurrection. We celebrate the first resurrection every year on Easter.

I think nothing is affirmed or debunked. We won’t know until it happens. So, when folks say they are ‘pan-millennial’, that describes me.

I like to know each of the ideas put forward by faithful men whose lives testify to their faith in Jesus Christ.

After all, if it goes some direction other than the one that is my favorite, I’d like to know if it is still tracking with some of the others.

Sort of like having a candidate drop out of the race, and then picking a new favorite. I know that’s simplistic, but it works for me.

“We celebrate the first resurrection every year on Easter.”

Nonsense, Revelation firmly places the first resurrection at the second coming, after the tribulation.
