First up today, let's go to Marjorie, who's calling in from Kansas.

Marjorie, what's your question for, Adriol?

I'm in Philippians 3, 10, and 11. I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing and his sufferings, becoming like him in his death.

So somehow to attain to the resurrection from the dead.

Now I know Paul teaches the resurrection from the dead and other places,

so I'm questioning what he means there,

because in First Solonians 416,

he teaches the Lord himself will come down from heaven with a loud command

with the voice of the archangel, the trumpet call of God,

and the dead in Christ will rise first.

Well, that's resurrection from the dead, right?

Mm-hmm. Yeah, Marjorie, that's precisely what the apostle Paul is talking about also in Philippians chapter 3.

The resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come is the hope of all believers.
