Resurrection Opportunity

In the 1000 Year Day of Judgment, there is a resurrection opportunity for all who have not  heard the gospel message of Yeshua.  God tells us this in Ezekiel 37:12-13:

12Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Yehovah; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel. 13And ye shall know that I am Yehovah, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves,

To open up the graves, is to resurrect these ones in the future judgment.  This is similar to what Yeshua declares in 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.

David writes in Psalm 136:15:

15But overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red sea: for his mercy endureth for ever.

Pharaoh was not overthrown because of God’s judgment.  It was done because of His Love.  This may seem contradictory, until one understands the future resurrections and God’s righteous judgments.  Had Pharaoh survived, he would have destroyed Israel.  If he had done that, Pharaoh would have inadvertently destroyed the seed of Messiah.  If that had occurred, there would have been no Yeshua, no salvation.  That would have resulted in all of us ending up in the lake of fire for eternity.  Because God overthrew pharaoh, he now has an opportunity for salvation in the future resurrection.  This is why in Ezekiel 32:31, Pharaoh is comforted in Sheol.

31 Pharaoh shall see them, and shall be comforted over all his multitude, even Pharaoh and all his army slain by the sword, saith the Lord Yehovah.

Pharaoh never rejected Yeshua.  Pharaoh was just lost in deception worshiping idolatry.

This is why in Romans 8:18-23:

18For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 19For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. 20For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, 21Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. 22For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.  23And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.

This speaks of not only we who have the first fruit of the spirits, but the whole world, is waiting for the manifestation of the sons of God.  It is two groups waiting in expectation of hope.

Revelation 21 speaks of the bride of the Messiah and another group, Revelation 21:24.

24And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it:

“It” is the light of the bride.  Those walking in it are those that never heard in this lifetime.

End with one last thought, Genesis 28:14 states:

14And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and in thee and in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed.

All the families of the earth were to be blessed through Abraham’s seed.  This will occur through Galatians 3:8.

8And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.

 One can only be truly blessed in Messiah.  It is in Yeshua and by no other name can we be saved.  Consider how many millions of people have died and never heard the name of Yeshua.  How can it ever be said that the blessing came upon these people?

Galatians 3:16 & 29

16Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Messiah.

29And if ye be Messiah’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

Messiah and His assembly are the seed.  They will be the seed to bless all nations in the future judgments.  Not until the seed of promise is brought with Messiah at the resurrection that the salvation of all the earth can open up and all families of the earth be blessed.

Think about this Yeshua said in Matthew 10:5-6:

5These twelve Yeshua sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: 6But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

During the 3-1/2 years of Yeshua ministry He was not too concerned with anyone, but the Jews.  Even though people were dying in Samaria and Gentile nations, Yeshua did not send forth the gospel message to them.

When fully understood, God’s plan of salvation is so much greater than what we imagine.  God’s way is straight and narrow.  However, it is not too narrow to include everyone that was born into this world.  In the future, those who were never given a real chance will have an opportunity to choose in the Restitution of All Things.
