1 | Are the 144,000 evangelists? | Rev 7:3 | kalos | 177340 | ||
Who are the 144,000? 'In prophetic circles, there are numerous attempts at identifying the 144,000 Jews mentioned in Revelation 7 and 14. A common identification is that they are Jewish evangelists that traverse the world during the 70th week of Daniel and are instrumental in bringing untold numbers of people into the kingdom of God. That understanding is, however, never taught in the Scripture! 'When a study is made of the 144,000, we learn that there are only three verses in the entire Bible that mention these people (Rev. 7:4; 14:1,3) . From a study of these three verses we learn the following: '1. They are 12,000 Jews from 12 tribes of Israel that are sealed for protection... '2. In Revelation 14 they are with "the Lamb...standing on Mount Zion" and bearing the name of His Father "written on their foreheads". In 14:3 they sing a new song "before the throne". '3. In 14:3-4 we also learn that these are "purchased from the earth" as "first fruits to God and to the Lamb" (from among the Jews), are spiritually pure ("not ... defiled with women"), follow the Lamb "wherever He goes", are absolutely honest and "are blameless".' ____________________ Who are the 144,000? by Rev.

2 | Are the 144,000 evangelists? | Rev 7:3 | Brian#9 | 177345 | ||
Thank You, Kalos I read our answer as no scripture support for the belief that they are evangelist, correct? Is there something I am missing due to reading in the English language? |

3 | Are the 144,000 evangelists? | Rev 7:3 | kalos | 177346 | ||
You are correct. The Scripture never teaches that the 144,000 are evangelists. | ||||||
4 | Purpose of the 144,000 | Rev 7:3 | Brian#9 | 177353 | ||
The first question leads to the second. As firstfruits unto GOD and the LAMB(Rev. 14:4). Are they the head of the nations,during the Millennial Age?(Deu 28:13)? 9 |

5 | Purpose of the 144,000 | Rev 7:3 | kalos | 177358 | ||
Question: The first question leads to the second. As first fruits unto GOD and the LAMB (Rev. 14:4). Are they the head of the nations during the Millennial Age? (Deut 28:13)? Answer: Please read the following again. You will note that there are only three verses in the entire Bible that mention the 144,000 (Rev. 7:4; 14:1, 3). These verses say nothing about them being the head of the nations during the Millennial Age. So there is no scriptural support for this idea. Anything beyond what the Bible says in these three verses ((Rev. 7:4; 14:1, 3) is speculation. Who are the 144,000? 'In prophetic circles, there are numerous attempts at identifying the 144,000 Jews mentioned in Revelation 7 and 14.
