The 144,000 — Voddie Baucham
One of the most famous numbers in the Bible is 144,000. With it comes difficulty; is it literal or figurative? It is crucial we understand this rightly, for it will allow us to answer the pivotal question at the end of chapter six: “Who can stand?”

Unfortunately, he did not number the irregularities from point three onwards. What is points four to seven?
the church not mentioned in Revelation 4-22 There is no instructions as before this for the church post trib or pre trib we will find out. I'm a pre trib guy love Voddie and McCarthur difference in opinions but both men of God.
The church will go through the great tribulation.
Two groups of 144,000 Revelation 7 1st Group (Jews) , Rev 14 2nd group ( Gentiles) . The Gentiles will be the group of people chosen by God during the great tribulation to proclaim and preach the Gospel of the Kingdom..
Revelation7 144,000 (Jews)
Scene on earth while Rev 14 ( 144,000 Gentile) v1: scene in heaven together with the Lamb on Mt Zion
Rev 7 > v3: Jewish servants of God sealed on foreheads ( during the great tribulation) while Rev 14 ( Gentiles) v1: had the Lamb’s Father’s name written on foreheads
Rev 7: 4: 144,000 chosen from all Israel ( from the 12 tribes) while Rev 14 ( Gentiles) v4: did not defile themselves & were pure
v4: obediently followed Lamb implicitly
v4: firstfruits to God & Lamb
v5: were truthful to God & before men
v5: blameless & holy
The 144,000 are all Jewish males.
Period.
I Love how he says the Church never taught Flat Earth, and then gives absolutely NO Evidence or Scripture to back it up! Christian books before 1900 "Is the Bible from Heaven? Is the Earth a Globe" and "Zetetic Astronomy" also 1906 "The Earth a Plain, and 1922 "Kings Dethroned". The Globe Earth is part of the great deception!
I am shocked at how little Voddie knows of eschatology! Spiritualizing that which is literal results in bad doctrine. Poor, poor, poor!
Revelation 6 is an overview of Daniel’s 70th week. It ends with the second advent. Chapter 7 is not chronologically after chapter 6! It is easy to come to wrong conclusions when you do not take the word literally.
ah that was great
Umm.. I'm sorry but where does it say anything about symbolism? "What must take place" seems kind of literal to me.
"The revelation from Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants what must soon take place. He made it known by sending his angel to his servant John who testifies to everything he saw—that is, the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ. 3 Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near."
I agree with Voddie on most this, but he is tragically wrong on the Book of Revelation.
Right when he preaches a spherical earth I stopped listening and unsubscribed. Sad preachers don’t believe what the Bible clearly states.
Does this mean that the final judgement could happen at any moment now?
Asking a real question…he went off on a great tangent that sort of lost me. What's the final significance of listing the birth order and tribes? Symbolism of who can be sealed and who can be marked?
When studying Revelation, always let the prologue be foremost in your mind: "The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show unto his servants, even the things which must shortly come to pass: and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John; who bare witness of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, even of all things that he saw. Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things that are written therein: for the time is at hand." Does your interpretation agree with that? If not, then your "take" on the book is wrong.
Amen 🙏
The 14400 thousand our children who are virgins. The Jews left our Lord 2000 years ago so His word lived on to the 12 apostles. Not Israel. A simple reread of this subject should clear all that up for you. Any other type of teaching about this would be a false teaching.
AND AFTER (YOU) CHECK THESE OUT, GET BACK WITH ME.
Loving this series so much
So y’all put a pay way behind the word of God. Disgrace and Shame on you.
People have learnt scriptures and can now refute what is not truth. Others still glorify teachers over the spirit of God.😢
Just a thought: Could it be the 144,000 who were without fault, virgins, all males, sinless, first fruits were possibly the male babies slaughtered at Passover??? Just sounds like God to me.
144000 useful singing donkeys
Why is God calling for donkeys?
They come singing when the are called
They can plow, plant, reap, and fertilize
They dont tolerate wolves and foxes trying to mess with their fields
They have sharp threshing hoofs and can thresh
They love their master and are obedient
Sweet and caring
If they see danger they will stop you from going there
Qualifications for the 144000 army of useful asses
Same things as above
Love God and others
Filled with the Holy Spirit
Full of faith that can move mountains they can do miracles of some kind
They worship Jesus in the Spirit and truth (sing in tongues, sing a new song, do miracles, and have the word of God written in their hearts)
They have been tried and tested and purged (or will be soon)
If they fall they get back up again and go to the right path
No pharisees they know there is freedom from sin when you walk with God and dont add heavy burdens to the word of God
and they know some of the height depth width and breadth of the love of God.
They look for the good in people always believe the best.
They can discern good and evil
Sheep are useful for wool they have to be herded and goats run off and eat the neighbors garden they are meat and for milk.
donkeys are all around useful animals. They can plow, plant, reap, protect, sing, fart fire, (this lol He told me about a donkey farting while pulling a plow and the kid lit a match and she ran all over the field) and i do sing fire. I never have farted fire until the end times . i gave birth to some wind. Some whirlwind of the south. Fire mouth of the south.
The 144,000 are men not defiled by woman, there virgin men who always put Jesus first 🔥revelations 14:4
There are over 200 passages that point to and indicate that God made the earth flat and immovable.
Amen!! Thank you for stating that on these scriptures that there is nothing that suggests that believers will escape tribulation!
His explanation of the symbolism of the 144,000 was not very convincing.
Rev 1:1 does NOT say the book is symbolic, in fact it says these are “the things that must soon take place.” Sounds literal to me…
Since a child when told that Jehovah witnesses believe it to be a literal number. I knew it could not be. At that point there had in their own denomination already surely been 144,000 dead. So why bother at that point if you believed it literal.
Can someone say click bait😂 great work lol
It is truly amazing to hear a 'reformer' interpret a verse by saying, "this does not mean what it says", and begins to bake a 'pretzel theological' tasty treat that has nothing to do with what he just read. He just regurgitates what he read from old reformers like the original 'Calvin', Augustine, Calvin, Luther, Pink etc etc. 99% of reformers' preaching is unoriginal and only parrot what they read from other unoriginal preachers who so twisted biblical interpretation with despicable hermeneutics that they've lost the main plot in John 3:16.
Well so far in this series we've been told God will judge wickedness extremely harshly. We've been told righteous people, the people who are saved, should long for that judgment, and the judgment of the wicked. Then we were told we are all sealed if we are saved. Then we were told we shouldn't ask for the day of judgment because no one would survive, which was presented as a bad thing. But it should be a good thing because I'm sealed and in your words nothing can change that. If I'm forever sealed, why would I not pray every day for that day of judgment because it will just hasten the day I make heaven? I shouldn't have a single thing to worry about on that day. There's a lot of mixed messages being sent because of the doctrine of eternal security being added into the passage, which is not at all biblical.
Hear this, Revelation is the most beautiful message written to man. But because some man a long time ago swayed the world it was about God's anger, with death and destruction and its been that way ever since. It is about each man's redemption. Man knowing his living God, Jehovah. The "wrath of God" is really the working out of the law of Being for the individual who does not conform to the law but thinks and acts in opposition to it. The "wrath of God" is actually a blessing, it's not a curse. The number 144,000 is an unlimited number, it is not a number of a bunch of people. Be not deceived. Revelation is about the kingdom of the soul which the man Jesus taught about. Did he not say "the kingdom is within"? In essence Revelation is about you and our loving God. The tribulations are the trials each man goes through. Those trials are multiplied by the masses. When each man comes to know his living God, Jehovah, then will you witness the end of the world. He is not an angry God, he does not condemn. Please don't walk yourself into the parable of the Pharisee and the tax man that I can witness, else you sin. The kingdom is at hand.
