When does "the first resurrection" occur mentioned in Revelation 20:6? Is it when Holy Spirit baptized & we're raised up like Christ(Rm 6:4)?

Update:

@FIREBALL

What Scripture have you misinterpreted to mean a "rapture?"

Matthew 24:24:36-....?"

"As in the days of Noah..." (Matthew 24:37)?  Were they "raptured" or all died in the flood but eight souls?  Matthew 24 says "Everyone in the days of Noah were eating drinking and being merry then death came"

I Thessalonians 5:3 is saying the same thing that says

"Peace and safety, and then sudden destruction" (((DEATH.)))

Where is a rapture?

Update 2:

@   ?

We are "set in heavenly places" (Ephesians 2:6)

(((NOW)))

After Holy Spirit baptism (Acts 1:5;8)

We "...are no longer in the flesh but in the Spirit" (Romans 8:9)

"So also is the resurrection of the dead [spirits; Rm 5:12-14; I Corinthians 15:21-22]. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption [I Peter 1:23]: 

Update 3:

43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory [By the glory of the Father; Romans 6:4]: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power [We received after Holy Spirit baptism; Acts 1:5;8]: 44It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body [Romans 8:9]. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body [I Cor 15:46] (I Corinthians 15:42-44).

Update 4:

@Justin

The first resurrection will continue to happen from generation to generation (Ecclesiastes 1:4; 9 3:14-15).

Which is the resurrection from one's "DEAD spirit" (Romans 5:12-14; I Corinthians 15:21-22) when they are "born again of the spirit" (John 3:5-7) when His (((POWER) comes upon us" (Acts 1:8) Who "QUICKENS us back to life" (Ephesians 2:1) when Holy Spirit baptized (Acts 1:5)..

Update 5:

SOME "...have departed from the truth. They say that the resurrection has already taken place, and they destroy the faith of some" (II Timothy 2:8) but everyone must be resurrected from their "DEAD spirits" to obey Jesus commandment "You must be born again of the spirit" (John 3:5-7)..

Update 6:

@Believeth

You're LATE!

Under the New Covenant, "Jesus gives commandments through the Holy Ghost" (Acts 1:2) after Holy Spirit baptism (Acts 1:5;8).

    No.  The first resurrection began when Christ resurrected himself into tangible, physical life, health, and immortality.  It is sort of on hiatus right now, but it shall resume when Christ makes his public return.  The resurrections are tangible and physical things, not symbolic or spiritual.

    Revelations is a book of prophecy. No one knows.

    That "first resurrection" is clearly described in v 4.

    It occurs at the beginning of the Millennium.

    revelation 5:10 speaks of those who go to heaven to rule over the world with Jesus christ.  That is the first resurrection so it has probably already happened.

    Paul’s words show that Christians anointed with holy spirit must die before they can receive their heavenly reward. At their death, their earthly body returns to the dust. (Genesis 3:19) At God’s appointed time, they are resurrected with a body of a kind suitable for life in the heavens. (1 John 3:2) God also grants them immortality. That is not something they possess from birth, as if a so-called immortal soul were breathed into them. “This which is mortal must put on immortality,” says Paul. Immortality is a gift from God, “put on” by those who share in the first resurrection.—1 Corinthians 15:50, 53; Genesis 2:7; 2 Corinthians 5:1, 2, 8.
