144,000 of Revelation 7

Scripture shows:

  • The 144,000 will be sealed after the Great Tribulation.
  • So none of the 144,000 have been sealed at this point in time.
  • Because they are sealed they will not have to go through the Day of the Lord.
  • The 144,000 are physical Israelites that will be alive at this time
  • 12,000 of each tribe of Israel will be sealed [Except Dan; 2 for Joseph]
  • Since the 144000 will be sealed after the Great Tribulation they will not be afforded a place of safety and will have to go through the Great Tribulation.

Listen to find out how you too can easily come to these same conclusions.

 

 

What are the Signs of the Times

 

Signs of the Times

Matthew 16:1  Then the Pharisees and Sadducees came, and testing Him asked that He would show them a sign from heaven.
Matthew 16:2  He answered and said to them, “When it is evening you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red’;
Matthew 16:3  and in the morning, ‘It will be foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ Hypocrites! You know how to discern the face of the sky, but you cannot discern the signs of the times.

Ruth 4

Intro

The book of Ruth is more than just a story about kindness even though that plays an important part in the book along with other sub-themes such as repentance, faith, grace, and works; characteristics that are considered to be New Covenant traits.  What we see though is that the word translated into a form of kind (kindly, kindness) is found three times in the book of Ruth, it only refers to Ruth twice and the word is more often translated to “mercy.” Now on the other hand we have the word for redeem/redeemer and it is found 21 times in the four chapters of the book of Ruth with 13 of those times in the last chapter…but redemption is only half of what this prose is really about.

We pick up the story today at the end of the harvest and at the time of the year we are currently in: the Pentecost season.
