Qualification?

It almost sounds like Revelation 20 verses 5-6 and then 12-14 indicate that those part of the first resurrection are the only ones making it to heaven.

If so, the qualifications for making the first resurrection are as follows: must be martyred for testimony of Christ and proclaiming the Word of God, and, have not worshiped the beast or his statue or taken his mark.

Hmmm.

Father, once again, I am baffled by the prophecy of Revelation.  But I see the continued importance of faithfulness and commitment to You.  Grant me the strength to be purely devoted to You!
