How do we know the doctrine of the first resurrection is true?

Answered in 1 source

The truth of the first resurrection is confirmed by Scripture, specifically through the teachings of Jesus and the apostles.

The doctrine of the first resurrection is substantiated by numerous passages in Scripture that highlight the necessity of being born again for salvation. Jesus teaches in John 3 that one must be born of the Spirit to see the kingdom of God. Additionally, the Apostle Paul writes in Ephesians 2:1 that believers were made alive, or 'quickened', when they were dead in trespasses and sins, showing the transformative power of the first resurrection. This resurrection signifies God's sovereign work in Christ, affirming that those who believe in Him are indwelt by the Holy Spirit and granted eternal life.
