Don't have a lot of time right now, but where is the reference to the first fruits? What is the context? Is it really about some first of multiple raptures? Or is it about those who die now ahead of that time? Is it clearly one or the other, or uncertain?
These are the things I would need to answer (probably among others) before I absolutely accept or reject Lee's version of the first fruit.
