What are all the resurrections of the end times?

The Bible speaks of two types of resurrections: (1) The Resurrections of the Righteous and (2) the resurrection of the Unrighteous. Jesus and Paul plainly declared two basic resurrections:

John 5:28 "for a time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice 29 and come out—those who have done what is good will rise to live, and those who have done what is evil will rise to be condemned."

Acts 24:15 having hope toward God, which they themselves also wait for, that there is about to be a rising again of the dead, both of righteous and unrighteous; (Also see: Daniel 12:2)

Participants

At Pentecost and during the early Acts period, the gospel of God was still predominantly Jewish. It was not actively being preached to Gentile's barring those who were in the synagogues, namely, the Greeks who were allies of the Jews and responsive to their religion! On the day of Pentecost, Peter specifically addressed Jews. Notice the following designations, "men of Judea" (Acts 2:14), "men of Israel" (Acts 2:22), and the "house of Israel" (Acts 2:36). 

Gospels and Raptures (God - Part 11): Conditions

The Gospels and their Raptures (God - Part 11)

Conditions

As with the gospel of the Kingdom, the gospel of God had works-based conditions that went apart with faith. We can get a good context of the conditions of this gospel by the preaching of Peter in Acts chapters 2 and 3. As already mentioned, the gospel of God is the gospel of the Kingdom with two added element, the resurrection of Jesus, their Messiah and the requirement of Holy Spirit baptism. So, we see in Peter's first message after Pentecost how he lays out the conditions,

Acts 2:36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made the same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ. ... 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. 39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.

Repentance was needed. They had to turn their mindset around 180 degrees and repent for their unbelief and in killing their Messiah. They had to confess His name and get baptized in water for the remission of their sins. This was necessary as acts of preparation for receiving the Kingdom. In addition, we find the baptism of the Holy Spirit which in the context of priesthood (Israel's covenant role in the Millennium), is the anointing oil for their office (Exodus 29:4; Leviticus 8:6), and the empowerment of signs to prove to the rest of Israel that their message was indeed ordained by God.

We clearly see evidence, just like in the Kingdom gospel, of additional acts, or works, to prove their faith in the message. The early church members sold all they had and brought the money to the apostles. They continued in breaking of bread and prayer, they continued in temple worship and sacrifices, and they obeyed the law.

Part 12 will continue with the 'participants' of the gospel of God.

The Gospels and their Raptures (God - Part 10)

Message (continued 2...)

In this final extension of the "message" section of the gospel of God, I'd like to draw attention to why it was "necessary" for Paul to go to the synagogues and teach this gospel, and what was the "strategy" for doing so.

The Necessity (to go to the synagogues)

If Paul was the Apostle to the Gentiles, with a God-given message to the Gentiles, why did he keep going to the synagogues with a majority Jewish attendance, and why was he not preaching the gospel of grace?

Gospels and Raptures (God - Part 9): Message (continued)

The Gospels and their Raptures (God - Part 9)

Message (continued...)

The church of God had grown in great numbers in the early part of Acts. The 12-apostles were operating in the power of the Holy Spirit accompanying their message of the gospel of God with remarkable miracles, to the point that they were reverently feared,

Acts 2:43 And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles.

Acts 5:5 And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.

Acts 5:11 And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things.

Acts 9:31 Then had the churches rest throughout all Judaea and Galilee and Samaria, and were edified; and walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Ghost, were multiplied.
