Subject: What is special about the 144,000? |
Bible Note: Where in Revelation 7, Revelation 14, or anywhere else in the Bible does it SAY the 144,000 are "preachers of the Christian gospel"? Please give us the book, chapter and verse where it SAYS this in the Bible. 'A common assumption of pretribulationists is that there will be 144,000 Jewish evangelists traversing the world in the 70th Week of Daniel. In the New Testament, there are only two places where this group is mentioned: Revelation 7 and 14. ...If we adhere to the principles of hermeneutics where we should take Scripture at face-value and in context, there is no indication that there is a revival during the 70th Week of Daniel nor are the144,000 bringing thousands to Christ during the 70th Week of Daniel.' ____________________ www.solagroup.org/articles/ endtimes/et_0007.html |
