The topic of the 144,000 in Revelation brings interesting conversations from many perspectives. In this teaching, Steve looks at the traits of these individuals and the misunderstanding of them just the same. Especially the trait that says, “In their mouth, no lie was found, for they are blameless.” This teaching opens up a whole new understanding of how these individuals lived.
The return of Yeshua, Jesus, coming in the clouds, is a longing for all believers. It’s an event believers have been watching for the last two thousand years. Exactly when this event takes place is a question we all keep pursuing. Current events in the modern day we live in seem to continually point to His return being soon.
The end times is a subject with multiple interpretations. Will His return be pre-trib, mid-trib, or post-trib? Will the tribulation be seven years, three and a half years, or even one year or less? How open are we to consider other views?
Prophecy is a topic many pursue with a passion. However, it’s also a topic with many mysteries. The Battle of Armageddon, the Anti-Christ, the mark of the beast, the two witnesses, the 1,260 days, the 1,290 days, the rapture, and the list could go on and on.
Many believe the end of days will start with the Fall feast days since Yeshua’s death and resurrection happened in with the spring feast days. Many look to the day of Trumpets as when His return will happen, and that may be.
The birth pains of war, famine, and earthquakes are topics that go hand in hand with these discussions. Trying to understand what the prophets spoke and tying them with the New Testament scriptures is a constant search. Understanding how Daniel, Isaiah, Ezekiel, and all the others are in the book of Revelation is not always seen at first glance. However, the more one studies and reads, the more obvious it is.
Seeking understanding with the signs in the heavens is another element to prophecy. Eclipse’s, blood moons, meteors, asteroids, comets, along with star constellations, keeps many looking to the skies. Add to that all the current events taking place down here on earth, well, it can keep one busy. The news is filled with elements that many try to apply to Bible prophecy. Viruses, chips, vaccinations, and even weather can all play a role in the end of days. Exactly how and when are the questions.
It seems the news is always quick to note tensions in the middle east as well. Israel is surrounded by terrorist groups being housed by many nations. How could this play a role in prophecy? What role will Iran, Turkey, Jordan, Iraq, and even Russia play in it all? How will the one-world government of the United Nations fit it? How will the plans of the new world order fit into the pages of prophecy when it all unfolds?
These are all questions that will have a multitude of answers from the vast community of prophecy students. Our prayer is that this teaching will offer insight for all to consider and pray over as we all learn and grow in His eternal Word.
Shalom!
