The F.O.G

They were purchased from humanity as firstfruits for God and the Lamb—representatives of the full harvest of salvation to come.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
these are they who with women were not defiled, for they are virgin; these are they who are following the Lamb whithersoever he may go; these were bought from among men—a first-fruit to God and to the Lamb—
