Facet of Christ (Day 91)

He is the “first fruits” of a single harvest (1 Cor 15:20, 23). The final resurrection of the dead has already begun. The first instance is already among us.

Dane Ortlund

²⁰ But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. ²³ But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, then at his coming those who belong to Christ. (1 Corinthians 15:20, 23)
