Who enters the an hundred forty and four thousand?

[瑤翰 김요한]

Who enters the an hundred forty and four thousand?

“And I looked, and, behold, the Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred and forty and four thousand, having his Father’s name written on their foreheads” (Revelation 14:1)

We can invade heaven because the Lord Jesus Christ took away our sin and death on the cross, and gave us being born again, knowing the truth through the inwardly work of the Holy Spirit, knowing that the Lord is the way , the truth, and the life to God, following God's calling and promise, we moved forward in faith with the Lord to God.
This is possible because through repentance and baptism, believing that Jesus is my lord and Christ, I have become one with the Lord, becoming one bread, one body, and one spirit.
Although the Lord is now the Lamb sitting on the throne and the King who judges all nations, it was Jesus who came as the Son of Man and took upon our sins, and is now Christ our Savior.
Although the Lamb is the judge of the world, he is the head and savior of the church, which is his body.

Since 144 is 12*12, we should not say that it is the number of the twelve tribes of Israel and the twelve disciples multiplied by 1000, which is the number of fullness, and that we should work hard to get there.
What matters is whether I stand on the mount Sion  as one with Christ ( together).
How can we who were born in Adam fly to the Lord who stands on the mount Zion?
He made us believe by revealing the fact that the Lord came to this earth, transferred us from Adam into Christ, lifted us up with Christ in Christ, and seated us in heaven.(Ephesians 2:6)
Therefore, do not get caught up in the number of 144,000, but check to see if I am one with the Lord.

The condition of the next 144,000 was to have the Lamb's name and his Father's name written on their foreheads.
The forehead is where a person's central thoughts are concentrated.
If, like David, I am equipped with the spiritual ability to attend the Lord Jesus Christ and focus on God the Father, then that person will have the Lord's name and the Father's name deeply embedded in his forehead.
Who can erase that name, which is not engraved with ink but with the Spirit of the Lord, and who can claim that it is a lie?
And the an hundred forty and four thousand are those who have learned a new song.
“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 ransomed from the earth.” (Revelation 14:3)
It is safe to say that a person has been redeemed from the earth and has joined the 144,000 if he or she can proudly say praise with his or her mouth before the four beasts and the elders.
Redemption on the earth is very important for those who have received new life in Christ and are seated in heaven. (Revelation 12:12)
There are some groups that praise people by saying they are among the 144,000.
It's a comedy that we can't even laugh at.
The new song is not a song of the earth, but a song of heaven.
It is a song that gives praise, honor, glory, and power to the Lamb who sits on the throne forever and ever. (Revelation 5:13)

The next condition for the 144,000 is that "These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goes. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb. (Rev. 14:4)
Like Abraham, who left his native country, his relatives, and his father's house, and was not born by blood, flesh, or human will, but was born again through Christ who came from heaven, and received the authority of children of God (John 1:12), beliving in the Lord and through baptism have become one body with Christ, the firstfruits, through the Holy Spirit. Who can separate us from the Lamb? (John 10:28-29)
There is no one in heaven or earth capable of such a thing. (Romans 8:39) It is impossible.
Even if you were an angel, you could get hurt if you dispute my qualifications for existence.
So I am saying that even if it is not the 144000 but only one, I am there.

And in the 144,000 mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.(Revelation 14:5)
How many people talk about blessings of the earth and play with the Bible?
Those who do not know the heaven and the earth (Revelation 12:12) are dancing.
You must not play games with the saints with the Book of Revelation.
If you mess around, you'll end up in the lake of fire.
However, the truth that testifies only to the Lord Jesus Christ must pour out of your mouth.
Nevertheless, are you talking about building a tent of testimony on the earth like a royal palace that rules over the whole world, binding people's paths to the earth and urging them to enter the 144,000?
Such words are not the truth; they are all human words and flawed chatter.
Just as the current National Assembly building near Nanji has become a garbage dump, it should never become a garbage dump that roams the earth and the sea under the name of a church, belonging to the earth.
If you belong to the earth and speak earthly words in your mouth, you will end up as trash that will be incinerated.
To summarize who the 144,000 are, they are those who have become ‘together’ with Christ, the Lamb.
The names of the Lord and the Father are engraved on their foreheads, and they must be able to sing a 'new song' as the sound of many waters and thunder, and as the sound of a harp. They must receive 'redemption from the earth' and be free from the women who partake of the world.
They are those who 'follow the Lamb' and look towards the throne and invade. They have been redeemed from men, become one with Christ, the firstfruit, in the Holy Spirit, and belong to God and the Lamb.
And these are the people who have become heavenly announcers who can continue broadcasting heavenly broadcasts through their mouths.
