In this week’s study, I continue in Chapter 14 beginning with verse 2.
Also I go in a rant over the new middle school which promotes LGBT only students.
Fox News network sending money to the LGBT agenda as well to the Satanic whistleblower per whistleblower.
Governor Newsome taking Scripture out of context to promote his abortion stance
14:1-5.
The Lamb and the 144,000.
The Fifth Vision in heaven is very brief. It is another Episode, telling us of those who will have come through the great Tribulation, and have been caught up to Heaven.
It is part of the larger Episode, and is parenthetical. The previous vision on Earth has told us of those who were slain because they refused to worship the Beast or receive his mark. Those who were for death, had been killed; and those who were to be kept alive, have been kept alive (13:10). The worshippers of the Beast received his mark; and those who refused to take the mark of the beast, BUT received the mark of the Lamb (Yahshua Messiah) and of His Father in their foreheads. This seems to point to the 144,000 sealed ones, of whose sealing we read in chapter 7. They had passed unharmed through the judgments of Yahweh, and through the persecutions of the Beast.
Remember as we start this Chapter that as Christians, we have that Seal of Yahweh within us (Rev. 9:4). So keep your utmost faith in Yahweh and know His Word. Don’t listen to man’s tradition, but Yahweh’s true Word! “Know His Word personally on the earth”
In our last study we began this Chapter 14 with John now in his 5TH Vision which takes place in heaven. There John sees the Lamb and the 144,000 with the Father’s Name written in their foreheads.
In the second verse we have the Heavenly voices and the singers. This again shows the Vision to be in Heaven.
So the lamb was standing on Mount Zion, we read. And we also see that with him is the 144,000 having his name and the name of his Father written on their foreheads.
2. And I heard a voice from heaven = Showing that the scene is laid in heaven, but that John in the vision was on the earth.
As the voice of many waters = As the sound of the ocean, or of a mighty waterfall. That is, it was so loud that it could be heard from heaven to earth. . Other words “People” as in Rev. 1:15, 19:6
As the voice of a great thunder = As the loud sound of thunder.
And I heard the voice of harpers = In heaven:
Harping with their harps = Playing on their harps.
3. sung = Greek, “sing.”
new song = (Rev. 5:9, 10). The song is that of victory after conflict with the dragon, beast, and false prophet: never sung before, for such a conflict had never been fought before; therefore new
four beasts = rather, as Greek, “four living creatures.”
144,000 = That only the 144,000 Jews could learn this song suggests that the particular praise expressed in this new song is specific to them.
redeemed = literally, “purchased
Don’t end up like those in Hosea 4:6 ‘My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God (Elohim), I will also forget thy children.’
But, be like those in 2Timothy 2:15 ‘Study to shew thyself approved unto God (Yahweh), a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.’
