Bible Question:
Emmaus, Regarding Rev 7, Thankyou for your detailed answer about the 144,000. Jews, but I didn't understand your answer about who the MULTITUDE in the same chapter represents and how or if they're a different group from the the 144,000 Jews. I also didn't know what you meant by saying the multitude are the elect. Can you or some one else explain? Chusarcik |
Bible Answer: Chusarcik: During the great tribulation God will turn to Israel as a nation and a large remnant will be saved (sealed). However, there will be a "great multitude, which no man could number of all nations, and kindreds and tribes and people" V9 I believe this group represents those gentiles who have not disobeyed or heard the gospel and as it goes out to Israel the blessing goes over the wall. The question is often asked "What about those in the day of grace who have never heard?" I believe this is an answer to that question. I hope this helps Robert |
