The elect will stand before him at the first resurrection, and the rest will stand at the Great White Throne 1000 years later, at the resurrection unto death, after the Earth and heavens have perished.

Makes no sense; according to what is written.

The 'elect' have their names in the Book of Life; right?

Yet at the GWT the BoL is looked into again?


What Scriptures show that there is a FIRST resurrection?

All that are in the book will be resurrected at the last trump. That is what Paul said in 1Corinthians 15. That is the first resurrection.

“Blessed is he that has part in the first resurrection”

Sound familiar?

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.

John 5:28-29

[28] Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
[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.

Two resurrections, 1000 years apart.

The GWT is a resurrection unto death, the “second death.”
