The 144,000 Spiritual Israel?

[Matthitjah]

Let's take a look at who is sealed.

2nd Corinthians 1:22 Who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.

Ephesians1:10,13-14 10;That in the dispensation of the fullness of the times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on Earth- in him.

13; In Him you also trusted, after you heard the Word of truth, the Gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were Sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise.

14; Who is the guarantee of our inheritence until the redemption of the purchased posession, to the praise of his Glory.

Ephesians 4:30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of G-d, by whom you were Sealed for the day of redemption.

By these verse's we see all believers are sealed until the day of Redemption.

It would seem by the end of Revelation 7. We see all the redeemed of Christ rejoicing in Heaven. Saying in a loud voice " Salvation belongs to our G-d who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!"

Now let's look at Matthew19:28 So Jesus said to them "Assuredly I say to you, that in the regeneration, when the Son of Man sits on the Throne of His Glory, you who have followed Me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

So the disciples sit on thrones judging Israel. Only one people of G-d. All believers ethnically Israel plus those grafted in become a new Israel in the regeneration headed by Christ w/ Jesus as King.

As for Ephraim here is his Spiritual disconnect and why his quality can't be part of the body of Christ.

Hosea 4:17-18Ephraim is joined to Idols. Let him alone.

18; Their drink is rebellion, They commit Harlotry continually. Her rulers dearly Love dishonor.

Hosea 5:4 They do not direct their deed's Toward turning to their G-d, For the spirit of Harlotry is in their midst, And they do not know the Lord.

WHOAWhat is a chief charecteristic of the 144,000?

Revelation 14:3-4

They sang as it were a new song before the Throne, before the four living creatures, and the elders; and no one could learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousane who were redeemed from the EARTH.(not just physical Israel)

4; These are the ones who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are the ones who follow the Lamb whereever He goes. These were redeemed from among men, being firstfruits to G-d and to the Lamb.

These believers are not defiled with Harlotry(Women, Idols) .They direct their efforts to following the Lord wherever he goes. Their hearts are not turned towards rebellion continually but are chaste to the Lord thier deed's turned towards him seeking him continually relying on him. Not putting favor unto other pursuits or their own personal will or other gods.

Peace

:inlove: Amen
