THE 144,000 KINGS BEFORE GOD’S THRONE.
Have you heard about the teaching currently being spread by a group of people; that it is only 144,000 believers will eventually go to heaven?
“They are the only believers that are entitled to “the Holy communion”, or “the Lord’s Super” that’s called the Lord’s Meal. Since the time of the apostles, Jehovah has been choosing the faithful Christians to be part of that group of 144,000 kings. When they die, they are resurrected to life in heaven Rev.14:1-4)”. So, they preach.
But what does the Holy Bible say about the numerical values of the redeemed that will stand before the throne of God? Let’s read the book of (Revelation 14:1-4). Yes, it is true that God has chosen some humans to rule with Jesus in his heavenly government. For example, the apostle Paul told Timothy: “If we go on enduring, we will also rule together as Kings (2Timothy2:12).
WHO ARE THE 144,000 HUMANS?
Revelation 14:1-5. John explained that the 144,000 humans have the name of the Father of Jesus written in their foreheads.
They sing a unique song that no other human that is not a virgin can learn.
They follow the Lamb wherever the Lamb goes.
They are redeemed among Men.
They are the first Fruits unto God and to the Lamb.
There was found no guile in their mouth.
They are without fault before the throne of God.
Exclusively, they are chosen from the tribes of Israel. (Revelation 7:4-8)
Erroneously, the 144,000 men are said to be the only humans that will go to heaven by that group of preachers. They preach that the remaining righteous men will not go to heaven.
Let’s read “The Holy Bible”, Open the book of (Revelation. 7:9) “After this I beheld, and a great multitude which no man could number, of all nations, and kindred, and people and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb ‘clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands”
The Holy Bible says: (Revelation 9:13 – 17)
a) A great multitude, which no man could number
b) Come from all nations, kindred and people and tongues
c) Stood before the throne, and before the lamb
d) Clothed with white robes , and palms in their hands
e) These are they who came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
f) Therefore, are they before the throne of God, and serve Him day and night in His temple, and he that sites on the throne shall dwell among them.
So, therefore, it is not only the 144,000 thousand Men that will be before the throne of God in heaven , but including all humans who believe that Jesus is the son of God and are obedient; they shall stand before the throne of God in heaven. (Revelation 7:15 – 17).
