The Last 1335 Days before Armageddon – Part 2A
Supplement 1 to Part 2, Event 6 (Chart of Events on Archive Update 102)
A JEWISH NEGEV WILDERNESS REMNANT OF 144,000!
SEALED PHYSICALLY AS THE FINAL 1335 DAYS BEGIN!
Revelation 7:1-4 – And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree. [2] And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, [3] Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. [4] And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.
THIS IS THE SEALING OF 144,000 BORN-AGAIN JEWS FROM PHYSICAL DEATH DURING THE TRIBULATION PERIOD UNTIL THE TIME OF REDEMPTION OF ALL THE SAVED. THEIR SPIRITUAL SEALING OCCURRED AT A MUCH EARLIER TIME, BUT THEY ARE SEALED HERE IN 7:4 FROM PHYSICAL DEATH AT THE BEGINNING OF THE 1335 DAYS UNTIL THE RAPTURE OF ALL BELIEVERS, WHEN THEY ALL RECEIVE GLORIFIED BODIES AT THE SOUNDING OF THE SEVENTH TRUMPET.
Ephesians 4:30 – And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
THEY ARE DRIVEN INTO THE NEGEV WILDERNESS AS PART OF A MUCH LARGER REMNANT OF SOME 1.8 TO 2 MILLION JEWS, THE “WOMAN” IN REVELATION 12.
Zechariah 13:8 – And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the Lord, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein.
Revelation 12:6 – and THE WOMAN FLED into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
THE 144,000 ARE SAVED JEWS THAT WITNESS, ALONG WITH THE TWO WITNESSES, TO THE UNSAVED JEWS, AMONG WHICH THEY DWELL UP TO THE RAPTURE. THE WOMAN IS ISRAEL, AND THE 144,000 ARE THE REMNANT OF HER SEED, WHO IS ISRAEL’S MESSIAH, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.
Galatians 3:16 – Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.
Revelation 12:5,6 – And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. [6] And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
Revelation 12:17 – And the dragon was wroth with the WOMAN, and went to make war with the REMNANT of HER SEED, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
THE SEED OF THE WOMAN (THE 144,000) IS A WITNESS TO THE WOMAN ISRAEL UNTIL SHORTLY AFTER THE RAPTURE OF THE TWO WITNESSES. THEY ARE A 144,000 REMNANT SEED IN THE MIDST OF A MUCH LARGER REMNANT (THE WOMAN) THAT ENTERS THE MILLENNIUM FOLLOWING THE SECOND ADVENT OF CHRIST.
Revelation 11:7-13 – And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. [8] And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified. [9] And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves. [10] And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth. [11] And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. [12] And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them. [13] And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the REMNANT were affrighted, AND GAVE GLORY TO THE GOD OF HEAVEN.
THIS IS A BELIEVING REMNANT OF 144,000 SEALED JEWS AMONG THE LARGER REMNANT OF 1.8 TO 2 MILLION UNBELIEVING JEWS. THEY ARE A CHURCH IN THE SAME NEGEV WILDERNESS WHERE THEIR FOREFATHERS WERE AN ASSEMBLY LED BY MOSES. IT WAS GOD’S SPIRIT DWELLING IN THE TABERNACLE AS HE DWELLS IN THE MIDST OF EACH ONE OF HIS LOCAL CHURCHES TODAY. HE WILL DWELL SPIRITUALLY AMONG THIS FUTURE ASSEMBLY OF 144,000 JEWS IN THE NEGEV WILDERNESS, AND THEY WILL GIVE GOD GLORY THROUGH HIS SON, JUST AS HE RECEIVES IT TODAY IN EACH ONE OF HIS OWN LOCAL CHURCHES. IT IS IMPORTANT TO REALIZE THAT THE FIRST CHURCH, ORGANIZED BY JESUS FOLLOWING HIS BAPTISM ON THIS EARTH, WAS AN ALL JEWISH CHURCH. WHEN JESUS WAS ASCENDING UP THROUGH A CLOUD FROM THEIR VIEW, HE WAS LOOKING DOWN ON AN ALL JEWISH LOCAL CHURCH IN JERUSALEM. WHEN HE RETURNS THROUGH THE CLOUDS AT HIS SECOND ADVENT, HE WILL BE LOOKING DOWN ON A JEWISH ASSEMBLY IN ISRAEL’S NEGEV. THE “CHURCH” IN ACTS 7:38 IS NOT A NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH – BUT IT IS AN “ASSEMBLY” IN THE SAME NEGEV WILDERNESS WHERE A NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH WILL EXIST DURING THE FIRST 1260 DAYS OF A 1335 DAY PERIOD OF TRIBULATION.
Acts 7:37,38 – This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A PROPHET shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear. [38] This is HE, that was in the CHURCH in the WILDERNESS with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us:
Ephesians 3:21 – Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.
Ephesians 2:22 – In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.
THE GREAT EARTHQUAKE OCCURS THE SAME HOUR THAT THE TWO WITNESSES ARE CAUGHT UP, AND A RAPTURE OF ALL BELIEVERS, INCLUDING THE JEWS MAKING UP THE 144,000, OCCURS SHORTLY AFTER THAT, BUT THERE IS A BRIEF PERIOD WHEN THEY GIVE GLORY TO GOD AS A FINAL WITNESS TO THE MUCH LARGER UNBELIEVING JEWISH REMNANT. REVELATION’S 11:13 EARTHQUAKE SUDDENLY FOLLOWS THE CATCHING OUT OF THE TWO WITNESSES, AND ENDS WOE TWO OF THE SIXTH TRUMPET. WHEN THE LAST TRUMP SOUNDS, (NUMBER SEVEN IN A SERIES), THE RAPTURE WILL OCCUR, AND WOE THREE COMES ON ALL THOSE LEFT BEHIND ON THE EARTH. MANY OF THE UNBELIEVING JEWS LEFT BEHIND BECOME BELIEVERS AFTER THE RAPTURE BECAUSE OF THE TESTIMONY THEY RECEIVED FROM THE 144,000, AND THE TWO WITNESSES, BEFORE THEY WERE CAUGHT UP.
Revelation 11:13-15 – And the SAME HOUR was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand and the REMNANT were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven. [14] The second woe is PAST; and, behold, the third woe cometh QUICKLY. [15] And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
Matthew 24:21 – For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. (It follows the 7TH trump)
Acts 2:19-21 – And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke: [20] The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come: [21] And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. ((These are those saved after the rapture, which pass into his Millennium in bodies of flesh).
