1 | Why would he leave his servants? | 1 Thess 4:17 | CDBJ | 188685 | ||
Greetings M.Royal, Good question: The end times of the gentiles and the return to Israel all takes place in the 7th chapter of Revelation. Romans 11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. The 144,000 is the main body of repopulating force the God will use when His grafts back in the natural branches. The 144000 are sealed “against God’s wrath” just before the angels release their destructive powers on the earth. This repopulating group will start the population process along with a small remnant in the days following the cleansing acts of God. Rev. 7:2-4 And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, 3Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. 4And 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. I think a lot of people get confused while reading the book of Revelation because it’s “not written as a progressive” book. There are lists epics mentioned, Example: Topics A, B, C, D, and E, then it may go back and explain the details of A and B at length and then move to C and how E fits or ties in with A and B. Rev. 12:6 And the woman (Israel) fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days. Rev. 12:14 And to the woman (Israel) were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, (3 ½ years) from the face of the serpent. Have a great day, CDBJ |

Hi CDBJ, Thanks for your help and the points you have made. Can you please check Rev. 14:1-5. regarding the 144,000 and repolulating, as it states that they are not defiled by women, and that they are virgins, and without fault before God. Yours sincerely M.Royal |

3 | Why would he leave his servants? | 1 Thess 4:17 | skccab | 188753 | ||
MRoyal Does the Word state that they remain such in the millennium? I've heard of many debates over "once saved, always saved" but I don't believe I've ever heard of "once a virgin always a virgin." So where does the Word state that once their mission is complete that they are not released to live "normal" lives (as if anyone could live a normal life after going through what they will experience). cheri |

4 | Why would he leave his servants? | 1 Thess 4:17 | M.Royal | 188771 | ||
Hi Cheri, This is what is stated; 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 first fruits unto God (The Church) and unto the lamb. And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God. So as they are before the throne in that state, that is how they got there without change. Yours sincerely M.Royal |

Mroyal, Rev 14:1-5 - ...(4.) Their character and description. [1.] They are described by their chastity and purity: They are virgins. They had not defiled themselves either with corporal or spiritual adultery; they had kept themselves clean from the abominations of the antichristian generation. [2.] By their loyalty and stedfast adherence to Christ: They follow the Lamb withersoever he goes; they follow the conduct of his word, Spirit, and providence, leaving it to him to lead them into what duties and difficulties he pleases. [3.] By their former designation to this honour: These were redeemed from among men, being the first-fruits to God, and to the Lamb, Rev_14:4. Here is plain evidence of a special redemption: They were redeemed from among men. Some of the children of men are, by redeeming mercy, distinguished from others: They were the first-fruits to God, and to the Lamb, his choice ones, eminent in every grace, and the earnest of many more who should be followers of them, as they were of Christ. [4.] By their universal integrity and conscientiousness: There was no guile found in them, and they were without fault before the throne of God. They were without any prevailing guile, any allowed fault; their hearts were right with God, and, as for their human infirmities, they were freely pardoned in Christ. This is the happy remnant who attend upon the Lord Jesus as their head and Lord; he is glorified in them, and they are glorified in him. - Henry These "come out of" the tribulation and could be actual virgins or as Henry states. |

Hi Cheri, Please remember that before Henry stated it, it was already written in the scriptures that they are virgins. Hence the reason for the written word being put first before the words of men. Yours sincerely M.Royal |
