| David Jay Jordan's First Resurrection for 144,000. I was always under the impression that the Resurrection was for all those people that had received Jesus during their life time, even if they hadn’t followed Him and even if the Word inside them had withered and died as the Lord said in His Parable of the Sower, but it doesn't appear that he comes back for the disobedient but for the obedient only and those that have loved and served Him. Revelations 14:1 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. (only 144,000 sealed ----Hmm ---- not all church people everywhere ----- NO, for according to Chapter 7 Rev 7:3 Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, (at the beginning of tribulation SEE Daniel and Revelations Timelines) till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. (We get sealed by the Lord before the start of the Tribulation if and only if we are part of the 144,000, for it says Rev 7:4 And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of (spiritual not nationalistic) Israel. (And now back to Chapter 14) Rev 14:2 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: 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. (Only 144,000 redeemed from the earth and no more. Yes that's what it says and only they could learn and sing the song of Moses, for only they have escaped from the clutches of the Anti-Christ and His MARK) But let's see if this can be confirmed for YES in Chapter 5, it already said that, only these 144,000 could sing this new song…. Rev 5: 9-10 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. (only the 144,000 will become kings and queens and priests and priestesses during the Millenium…Hmmm…let’s read on) Rev 5:11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; (O.K. the millions and billions doesn’t refer to church Christians before the throne but to the angels before the throne. But now back to Chapter 14) Rev 14:4 These are they which were not defiled with women; ( meaning Babylon the Whore and spiritual fornication with materialism and this present life) for they are virgins. (Ah, here it is these are the Virgin bride in the spirit that flee from the Anti-Christ in Revelations 12 as instructed us by Jesus in Mathew 24) These are they which follow the Lamb whither soever He goeth. (into the wilderness where he has prepared a place for us) These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb. (there it is again as the Lord repeats this truth) Rev 14:5 And in their mouth was found no guile: (Guile meaning false doctrine or deception) for they are without fault before the throne of God. (for our total righteousness is the Lord himself) Rev 14:6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, (Yes, the Lord’s End-Time Encampment is composed of NOT one nationality but All nationalities races, creeds, and all kinds of wierd and wonderful individuals Rev 14:7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters. Rev 14:8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. Rev 14:9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, (But wait a minute I thought all had to take the Mark or die, so it seems almost all did take the MARK cause they didn’t want to die or they just loved the Beast and married Him. And then it talks about the judgments of God falling on the wicked during the tribulation followed by the first HARVEST, the first fruits redeemed from the earth, from the FIRST RESURRECTION) Continue to Part 2 |
