Brian Kelson answers:
This is mixing things that differ.
First up, 1Cor. is full of the Feasts.
1Cor.5:7 the Passover and unleavened Bread.
1Cor.12, Pentecost and the supernatural gifts, see 1Cor.1:4-8.
1Cor.15:20-23 Christ the first fruit (of Unleavened Bread).
1Cor.15:51-55, The Feast of Trumpets.
The
Feasts belong to Israel, and yes, the nation of Israel
will be re-gathered at Trumpets but not to immortality, but those of the
elect remnant of grace, the faithful Jews and Gentiles of the Acts
period, are certainly raised with immortality and will judge the world
and angels, 1Cor.6.
When
the Lord descended with clouds, a trumpet and angels and a voice and
darkness and fiery judgment in Ex.19-24, Moses and a remnant of 70, went
up into the clouds to meet the Lord. When Israel was nationally stiff
necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, there was always the
faithful remnant as Roms.11:1-5 shows. These are faithful virgins.
The
resurrection of 1Cor.15 is to the earth because Paul quotes the OT
which knows nothing of a heavenly inheritance with every spiritual
blessing. These are the references which Paul looks to as the
resurrection in view.
1Co 15:51 Behold, I speak a mystery to you; we shall not all fall asleep, but we shall all be changed;
1Co 15:52
in a moment, in a glance of an eye, at the last trumpet. For a trumpet
shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall
all be changed.
1Co 15:53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
1Co 15:54
But when this corruptible shall put on incorruption, and when this
mortal shall put on immortality, then will take place the word that is
written, "Death is swallowed up in victory. Is.25:8
1Co 15:55 O death, where is your sting? O grave, where is your victory?" Hosea 13:14.
Now, here are the passages from which Paul brings forth the victory at the resurrection of 1Cor.15.
Isa
25:6 And in this mountain Jehovah of Hosts shall make a feast of fat
things for all the people, a feast of wine on the lees, of fat things
full of marrow, of refined wine on the lees.
Isa
25:7 And He will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering
which covers all people, and the veil that is woven over all nations.
Isa 25:8
He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord Jehovah will wipe
away tears from all faces. And He shall take away from all the earth the
rebuke of His people. For Jehovah has spoken.
Isa 25:9 And one shall say in that day, Lo, this is our God. We have waited for Him, and He will save us. This is Jehovah; we have waited for Him, we will be glad and rejoice in His salvation.
Isa 25:10 For the hand of Jehovah shall rest in this mountain, and Moab shall be trampled under Him, even as straw is trampled in the water of a dung pit.
Read chapter 26 please seeing resurrection again in v19, and notice the trumpet in Is.27.
Hos 13:4 Yet I am Jehovah your God from the land of Egypt, and you shall know no God but Me. For there is no Savior besides Me.
Hos 13:5 I have known you in the wilderness, in the land of great dryness.
Hos 13:9 O Israel, you have destroyed yourself; but in Me is your help.
Hos 13:13 The pains of a woman in travail shall come to him. He is an unwise son; for he cannot stand still in the time of the breaking forth of sons.
Hos 13:14 I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death. O Death, where are your plagues; O Grave, where is your ruin! Repentance shall be hidden from My eyes.
See chapter 14 and 1. Hosea 1 is the very passage Paul uses in Roms.9 about the remnant of Jews and Gentiles.
Isaiah and Hosea are not about the church which is His Body.
Those
resurrected at 1Cor.12 are chaste virgins (2Cor.11), Paul calls them
that and they are going to meet the Bridegroom as He descends to them.
See Matt.24:29-31, 25:1-6 and 1Thess.4:13-18.
Israel
is the wife, those faithful in Israel are the elect remnant of prophesy
and are associated with the Bride the Lamb's wife, namely the New
Jerusalem.
The resurrection of 1Cor.15 is to the earth according to prophesy.
