1 | Rev 2:17 additional question | Rev 2:17 | MstrdSeed | 15675 | ||
Does this mean that only the 144,000 who receive a new name on this white stone will go to heaven to spend eternity with God? What about all the people being saved now? If we are not being saved from hell for heaven, what for then? | ||||||
2 | Rev 2:17 additional question | Rev 2:17 | There | 15682 | ||
I agree with "outfora" in that the white stone is singular and isn't linked to the 144,000. This verse is speaking to the "church", not God's remnant of Israel. It is my understanding that the 144,000 are God's insaved remnant (Israelites - 12 thousand from each tribe) who refuse to follow or worship the "Antichrist" during the 70th week. Fearing God they will refuse to support the covenant that AntiChrist makes with Israel, and mid-point of the 70th week, they will will flee to the wilderness of Edom before the tribulation by "Antichrist" begins. These will become the firstfruits of Israel to come to Christ immediately after or similtaneously with the rapture of the church, and will be sealed for protection and salvation just before the day of the Lord begins. |
