Subject: Do everyone get to hear God's salvation? |
Bible Note: I like going to the KJV, because the translation is in a dead language, unlike our current English, helps for understanding sometimes. Revelation 14:1-5 King James Version 1 And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads. 2 And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps: 3 And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth. 4 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 firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb. 5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God. I hope I can get you to read up on this, try finding the relationship between a woman and a church. In all the letters of the apostle Paul he wrote them to specific churches. When you read those try to think of general term woman as being a church. Here's why I say that, and I'll ask it with a question. Who is the bride of Christ? Now I'll tell you what I believe hopefully it helps. A child is innocent until it becomes mature enough to make a decision for or against Christ. Matthew 19:14 - But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven. Mark 10:15 - Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein. 1 John 2:12 - I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake. 1 John 2:13 - I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father. From this I can faithfully say that children under innocence are saved - they know the Father. Well the same type of innocence is found in the 144,000. Why? They are not found guilty of believing any false teachings from the churches in this day. Remember Woman is a Church, and if they are not found guilty of practicing a corrupt faith, they are as innocent as a child, therefore being saved. Ephesians 5:1 - Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; Why? Again to be innocent of evil. Hope that helps |
