What the Bible says about Lamb will wipe away every tear
(From Forerunner Commentary)

Revelation 7:17

Verse 17 says the Lamb "will shepherd them and lead them" and "will wipe away every tear from their eyes." This sounds like Revelation 21-22 where God offers salvation to the previously uncalled masses. By this time, the firstfruits will have been changed and married to Christ for a thousand years. They will not need to have their tears dried, yet this great multitude appears ready to have or are in the process of having this done. As they don garments of righteousness, this godly peace becomes available to them.

This must occur after the 144,000 of the first resurrection are sealed, as verse 9 shows. It seems clear that the innumerable multitude rises in the second, not the first resurrection!
