How are we counted worthy to enter the resurrection?

Answered in 1 source

We are counted worthy through God's sovereign election, the blood of Christ, His righteousness, and the regenerating work of the Holy Spirit.

According to the Christian doctrine, particularly as articulated in Revelation 20:15 and Romans 8:29-30, worthiness to enter into the resurrection is not based on human merit but on God’s sovereign grace. He elects individuals to salvation from before the foundation of the world, and through Christ’s sacrificial blood, their sins are forgiven. Furthermore, believers are made righteous in Christ by His imputed righteousness, and are transformed by the regenerating work of the Holy Spirit, making them capable of good works. Thus, their worthiness is fully attributed to God's work rather than their own.
