I Corinthians 15:20-23
Excerpted from: The Appointed Weeks of Pentecost
That was the day when, once they were in the land, the nation waited until God was acknowledged with an offering of firstfruits before they started harvesting the barley. Deference to God came first. In the New Testament, Jesus is identified as “the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.” Once He was raised and accepted by the Father, then the spiritual work could begin. But He had to go first. And here we find a parallel with God going first. He went before Israel so they could make this journey of seven weeks.

I Corinthians 15:19-26
Excerpted from: The Bride of Christ (Part One)
Brethren, these verses point to a very specific time and a very specific group of individuals who have been called in an order only God Himself has already determined.
Within that we need to fully appreciate the very special relationship that we have been called to have with Him now in order that we can fully appreciate the very special training that God is providing to a very carefully selected handful compared to all who will ever live.
