1 | Only enough room for 144,000 in Heaven? | Rev 7:4 | newbeliever90 | 190670 | ||
It tells, in Revelation 14, about The Lamb and The 144,000. I thinks it's the jehovah Witnesses that believe there is only going to be 144,000 people allowed into heaven, but that's not really my point anyway. I was just curious on how true that is? Is there really only 144,000 people going to Heaven? I don't believe that God would only allow it but maybe that's how many people actually make it. | ||||||
2 | Only enough room for 144,000 in Heaven? | Rev 7:4 | RC Scrolls | 190671 | ||
We first see a number of people from the Twelve Tribes of Israel in Rev 7:4. Twelve thousand from Each Tribe. This is However a Number of a Priesthood 12 which is symbolic. Many many more shall be in Heaven all the Tribes Tongues and Nations Shall be represented there as we can see in Rev 5:11 Thousands of Thousands. Then we can again see the 144,000 in Rev 14:1 with the Fathers name in their foreheads for they have been Faithful (Jehovah)is His name. One point to mention here is the fact that these have been Redeemed while yet other men are still on the Earth Rev 14:6. These are they which are Gods first Fruits, The faithful of Israel. Remember in Matthew. that many that were asleep came out of their Graves and did walk into the City. Matt 27:52-53 (KJV) 52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, 53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many. Also for good thought is the very Fact that Now the good news of the Gospel will now be preached to all men who remain on the earth.Just as John has to Prophesy again in Rev 10:11, and Math 24 Jesus also says that Judgement has come on Israel. John 12:30-31 30 Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes. 31 Now is the judgment of this world(age): now shall the prince of this world be cast out. Just as He says in Rev 14:7. This Judgement lasts for Forty years after Christs Resurrection when the Temple finally is Destroyed in 70 A.D. A 40 Yr time of Trial and Judgement like 40 Days and Nights of rain, 40 Years in the wilderness for the Jews waiting to go into the promised land. By the time we get to Revelation 14:8 we see that Destruction on that Great City in 70A.D., the Harlot of all time Israel. Babylon So yes there will be Multitudes of Multitudes in Heaven. Amen Love in Christ Jesus RC |
