Subject: Sealing of the 144,000? |
Bible Note: When Jesus was killed all attachment of God to the Jewish nation was gone and was give to people of all the nations, (except for any Jews that wanted to follow Christ,) The chosing of the 144,000 were not literly all chosen from the Jews because as a nation they were cast off by God, because of their conduct. They are Spiritual Jews( some Jews were chosen, 120 from the upper room , the Apostles etc.) taken from all nations, just as the Jews were a chosen people the 144,000 are a chosen people. The Jews lost that. Also wanted to mention that God always warned his People before he took action. Noah and the flood, when the Jews were in captivity he said when the armies leave flee to the moutains, not all did and they paid for it with lives.He sent Jesus to be a ransom and warn the Jew that they were not following the spirit of the law, and Jesus said they had made his Fathers house a den of robbers. I can back all this up with scriptures. So if anyone needs this confirmed let me know. Also the term Messiah, is not a name itmeans..anointed or anointed one. Which raises another question who anionted Jesus, it must have been his Father. jme |
