The 144,000 and the Great Multitude — Revelation Chapter 7
From Bible Chapter by Chapter · 00:23:13
Show by Chris Hintsala
Chapter 6 closed with a question no one could answer: who is able to stand? Revelation 7 stops the countdown of the seals to answer it — before the seventh seal even opens.In this episode we walk through the interlude between the sixth and seventh seals: four angels hold back the four winds while God seals His servants, the symbolic 144,000 are marked, and then John turns to see what that number actually looks like — a great multitude from every nation, tribe, people, and language, standing before the throne in white robes washed in the blood of the Lamb. We talk about why the seal is an identity and not an exemption, how John uses the same “hear one thing, see another” technique from chapter 5, and what it means that the Lamb Himself will shepherd them and that God will personally wipe away every tear.0:00 – Who Is Able to Stand?
