THE 144,000

I will study the Hundred and Forty four thousand. I contend they
are believers who believed on the name of Jesus as their messiah
and the Son of God. I also think the twelve disciples will be
among them. I believe they will be raised from the dead in the
same fashion as Lazarus; they won't be resurrected, but only
risen. They won't be resurrected until after the tribulation.
[Revelation 7:3 KJV] "Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the
sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God
in their foreheads."
[Revelation 7:4 KJV] "And I heard the number of them which were
sealed: [and there were] sealed an hundred [and] forty [and]
four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel."
[Revelation 14:1 KJV] "And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on
the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand,
having his Father's name written in their
foreheads."...........The 144 thousand are on the mount. Their
location is significant. They are on the earth
[Revelation 14:2 KJV] "And I heard a voice from heaven, as the
voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I
heard the voice of harpers harping with their
harps:"............The voice of harpers could be heard. Their
location is significant as well. The harpers are in heaven.
[Revelation 14:3 KJV] "And they sung as it were a new song
before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders:
and no man could learn that song but the hundred [and] forty
[and] four thousand, which were redeemed from the
earth."............The harpers sang a new song. Only the 144
thousand could learn this song.
[Revelation 14:4 KJV] "These are they which were not defiled
with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow
the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among
men, [being] the firstfruits unto God and to the lamb."
............They which were virgins are THE HARPERS. They are
the ones who sang a new song in HEAVEN (not on the earth where
the 144 thousand are)
[Revelation 14:5 KJV] "And in their mouth was found no guile:
for they are without fault before the throne of
God."................The harpers had no guile found in their
mouths.
I have found that when we read scripture initially, we don't get
full understanding. At the first reading I thought that the 144
thousand were virgins. Our initial reading misses nuances in the
text. Further examination gives us a new insight into the text
to fully understand the passage as revealed by the Spirit.
[Matthew 24:14 KJV] "And this gospel of the kingdom shall be
preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and
then shall the end come."...........The twelve did not preach
the gospel of the kingdom in all the world. The gospel of the
kingdom was that the prophetic Davidic kingdom on earth was at
hand and that believing Israel would reign with Christ for a
thousand years.
[Mark 16:15 KJV] "And he said unto them, Go ye into all the
world, and preach the gospel to every creature.".........The
only gospel the twelve preached was that the earthly kingdom was
at hand.
[Mark 16:16 KJV] "He that believeth and is baptized shall be
saved; but he that believeth not shall be
damned."............Israel had to be water baptized to enter the
earthly kingdom.
[Mark 16:17 KJV] "And these signs shall follow them that
believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak
with new tongues;".........this was accomplished by the twelve.
[Mark 16:18 KJV] "They shall take up serpents; and if they drink
any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands
on the sick, and they shall recover."..........Taking up
serpents and drinking poison was not seen yet. These could be
seen in the tribulation as protection from the plagues.
I believe Mark 16 was partly fulfilled, but was interrupted by
the withdrawal of the kingdom offer and by the dispensation of
grace. I believe Mark 16 will be fulfilled completely in the
tribulation when the twelve are raised as part of the 144
thousand.
