Resurrections are not limited to just Christians, what a good catch you have found here! Let's see, Christianity didn't start up until 300 years after Jesus' death, so following Christian documents only, that leaves out a few million people who had died during those 300 years of not being able to be in the spiritual realm. That would be a flawed assumption since God is not partial and is an all loving God. Going by biblical information, we are aware of Jesus' resurrection, and that he was not Christian, more so a follower of Gnostic beliefs. The Dead sea scrolls and the copper scroll would be very intriguing topics for you to study on. And no, you won't burn in h. e. double L for doing so, because our God is an all loving God, who detested against anyone harming his children, so why would a h.e. double L be a part of his creation? Gnostics realized this was true so their beliefs were more in line with biblical truths, but they were also outnumbered in those years and had to hide the truths so that one day, a smart seeker, such as you can find and know of these things. Keep following your heart.

Jesus Christ is the Resurrection, the truth, and the life

Jesus was the first to be resurrected. The bible says he is the "first-fruits of those who have fallen asleep" meaning he is the first to experience THE resurrection. (1 Corinthians 15:20) There were people who came back from the dead during Jesus' ministry but that was not the same resurrection as they died again and do not live today. ie Lazarus. Hope this helps

Your question is taken sincerely, however...............
Where in Revelation, according to you, does it state all Christians will be resurrected?
A reference would be effective.
Technically, only the DEAD Christians (not ALL) will need a resurrection.
Those living at that time will simply keep on living.
Does it include Jesus?
In a way, yes.
He did die. He is now living. So he must have been resurrected.
BTW There is no 'S' at the end of Revelation.
God provided only one.

Jesus has already been resurrected and is in Heaven now. I think before you hit Revelation, next time, read the Gospels.

Revelation.........no "s"
and if you were to read the Bible you would see that Christ was already resurrected. That's what makes Christianity stand above other religions.
Christians have the ONLY risen Savior. No other religion even makes that claim

no, Jesus Christ now sits at the right hand of the Father, so no need for him to be resurrected.

Jesus was resurrected on the third day after His Death.
He proved that it could be done!

Jesus was resurrected first. All will be resurrected, some to great joy - some to great humiliation.

Jesus WAS resurrected, it was in all the Bibles.
