Bible Question: What does it mean in Rev 5:10 about the 144,000 men and then again in Rev 7:4,9 about the meek...2 different groups of people....is this referring to that there has already been chosen 144,000 men from Jesus' time that are the only ones to make it to heaven?? and does this mean that the meek will inherit the earth but will never be in heaven?? but will be on eart in the New Kingdom?? I am confused by the meaning. One relgion says this and another doesn't. |
Bible Answer: loryfindingGodagain, Greetings and welcome to the forum. Dear heart a few things will help you in your study and understanding of God's Word. We find the answers in the verse,in the context,or the word or phrase has been used before. Anothere thing that will help you out is that there are numerous,symbiologies, figures of speech and orientalizims. Here are some scriptures that will help you. 2 Peter 1:20,21 2 Timothy 3:16,17 2 Timothy 2:15. These passages show us where our focus has gotta be. It's not about the oppinions of men or religion but about what the Word of God actually says.These passages of scripture are bedrock principles of faith and study of God's Word. Hope this helps. Look forward to hearing from you again. In Christ, lionheart |
