REVELATION 14-1

And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father’s name written in their foreheads. 2 And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps: 3 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 redeemed from the earth. who were they these that sang a new song look at THE scripture in,

Isa 26- 19 Thy dead men [males}shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise.[in the first resurrection!} Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead. 20 Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast. 21 For, behold, Yahweh cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.

4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb. 5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God these. were all beheaded !

see..Revelation 20:4 - And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of yahwehshua, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

WHO ARE THE 144,000 THAT HAD NOT DEFILED THEMSELVES WITH WOMEN? These were male children.

rev 14-4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb. 5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God

see..Revelation 20:4 - And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of yahwehshua, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

Matt 2- 16 Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the male children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently enquired of the wise men. 17 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, 18 In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.

The 144,000 were all Israelite MALE children who were beheaded and redeemed from the earth in the first resurrection and sealed with the seal of the living God. now we will see the 144 000 chosen in the first resurrection being sealed and raised in the first resurrection.

Rev 7:2-4. 1 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.[the seal is the name of the father!

Rev 14-1 And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written 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. 5 Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand.

Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand. 6 Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nephthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand. 7 Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand. 8 Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.

IT IS VERY CLEAR IN THE BIBLE that Christ came to the earth as abridegroom to get his bride and return to heaven ! These 144,000 were innocent of all crime, even thoughts.

A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven. 28 Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him. 29 He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled. 30 He must increase, but I must decrease. 31 He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all.

Jhn 3:29 He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled.

Psa 19:5 Which [is] as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, [and] rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.

Isa 62:5 For [as] a young man marrieth a virgin, [so] shall thy sons marry thee: and [as] the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, [so] shall thy God rejoice over thee.

Jer 16:9 For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will cause to cease out of this place in your eyes, and in your days, the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride.

Joe 2:16 Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet.

Matt 27-51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; 52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, 53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.

Mat 9:15 And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast.

Mat 25:1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins,[ TEN NORTHERN TRIBES ] which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.

Mat 25:5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

Mat 25:6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.

Mat 25:10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.

luke 12- 35 Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning; 36 And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their master, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.

37 Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them.

Rev 19-7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. 8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. 9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.

Rev 18:23 And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.

They will not repent of the sorceries but the wise will! The unrepentant were ” for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries (pharmecia) were all nations deceived.”


FEAR Yah. (Spiritual warfare). Fearing Yah is a message seldom heard in the Laodicean, lukewarmgeneration. Preaching on the fear of Yah has all but ceased. Occasionally, reverencing Yah is heard in place of the fear of Yah. Perhaps, these two scriptures convey the fear of God. It is written, Yah IS GREATLY TO BE FEARED IN THE ASSEMBLY OF THE SAINTS, AND TO BE HAD IN REVERENCE OF ALL THEM THAT ARE ABOUT HIM-Ps 89:7 Yah is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be had in reverence of all them that are about him.

It is also written, BUT I WILL FOREWARN YOU WHOM YE SHALL FEAR: FEAR HIM, WHICH AFTER HE HATH KILLED HATH POWER TO CAST INTO HELL; YEA, I SAY UNTO YOU, FEAR HIM-Lk 12:5. The word “fear” means exactly what it says. In a few scriptures, the words denoting “fear Yah” can be translated as “reverence.” However, at most, it means to “be afraid.” In some, it means to “tremble.” Many people, in this lukewarm church age, want to make Yah appear smaller than He really is; they want to elevate or magnify themselves.

AND GIVE GLORY TO HIM; FOR THE HOUR OF HIS JUDGMENT IS COME. The Tribulation is a time of Yah’s judgments and wrath. The world is also being admonished to glorify and worship Yahweh of heaven. The judgment is at hand. Note, “glorify Him” and “judgment” are connected.

AND WORSHIP HIM THAT MADE HEAVEN (or the heavens), AND EARTH, AND THE SEA, AND THE FOUNTAINS (or springs) OF WATERS-Rev 14:7. In the Laodicean church age, the teaching that Yah is the Creator has been supplanted by Satan’s lie ofevolution.

There are four items that are referred to as being made—heaven, earth, the sea, and the fountains—are also mentioned many times in the Revelation during the Tribulation period. The first four trumpet judgments and other judgments affect three of these as well. The angel is confirming that Yah made these things. The devil did not make them.
One-third of Israel will be refined as silver is refined. They will go through many judgments and trials. However, two-thirds of the house of Jacob will not turn to Yahweh Sadly, they will ultimately be cut off and die.


AND IT SHALL COME TO PASS, THAT IN ALL THE LAND, SAITH Yahweh, TWO PARTS THEREIN SHALL BE CUT OFF AND DIE; BUT THE THIRD SHALL BE LEFT THEREIN. AND I WILL BRING THE THIRD PART THROUGH THE FIRE, AND WILL REFINE THEM AS SILVER IS REFINED, AND WILL TRY THEM AS GOLD IS TRIED: THEY SHALL CALL ON MY NAME, AND I WILL HEAR THEM: I WILL SAY, IT IS MY PEOPLE:

AND THEY SHALL SAY, Yahweh IS MY EL, lst Zech 13:8,9. THEREFORE THUS SAITH YAHWEH ; BECAUSE YE ARE ALL BECOME DROSS (or scum on molten metal – rubbish), BEHOLD, THEREFORE I WILL GATHER YOU INTO THE MIDST OF JERUSALEM-Ezek 22:19. AS THEY GATHER SILVER, AND BRASS, AND IRON, AND LEAD, AND TIN, INTO THE MIDST OF THE FURNACE, TO BLOW THE FIRE UPON IT, TO MELT IT; SO WILL I GATHER YOU IN MINE ANGER AND IN MY FURY, AND I WILL LEAVE YOU THERE (in the midst of Jerusalem) AND MELT YOU-Ezek 22:20.

YEA, I WILL GATHER YOU, AND BLOW UPON YOU IN THE FIRE OF MY WRATH (as silver is refined to make it pure, so the children of Israel will be refined). AND YE SHALL BE MELTED IN THE MIDST THEREOF. AS SILVER IS MELTED IN THE MIDST OF THE FURNACE, SO SHALL YE BE MELTED IN THE MIDST THEREOF; AND YE SHALL KNOW THAT I Yahweh HAVE POURED OUT MY FURY UPON YOU

Ezek 22:21,22.


ESAIAS ALSO CRIETH CONCERNING ISRAEL, THOUGH THE NUMBER OF THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL BE AS THE SAND OF THE SEA, A REMNANT SHALL BE SAVED Rom. 9:27. AS Yahweh HATH SAID, AND IN THE REMNANT WHOM Yahweh SHALL CALL-Joel 2:32.

The following verses are not concerning the 144,000, as they were taken in the first resurrection, but a generation to come before the 2nd coming, as It is written, BUT BEFORE ALL THESE, THEY SHALL LAY THEIR HANDS ON YOU, AND PERSECUTE YOU, DELIVERING YOU UP TO THE SYNAGOGUES, AND INTO PRISONS, BEING BROUGHT BEFORE kings and evil rulers.

The Bride and the Bridegroom are waiting on the children of the marriage AT the marriage supper many will be hated for his name sake and killed, as was the bride and bribegroom! our father and our mother are in the holy city waiting for the children to come home.

Rev 14:1-AND I LOOKED, AND, LO, A LAMB ( Yahwehshua) STOOD ON THE MOUNT ZION. The following may be noted, a voice from heaven-v.2, harpers-v.2, before the throne-v.3, the four beasts-v.3, the elders-v.3, and the 144,000 which were redeemed from the earth-v.3. Collectively, these indicate that this is a heavenly Mount Zion.

There is also an earthly Mount Zion, the temple site. It is a hill in Jerusalem. It is mentioned in the Bible approximately 156 times. There are times when “Zion” appears to represent Jerusalem, such as in Isa. 1:26,27 and Ps 126:1. The verse continues, AND WITH HIM ( Yahwehshua) AN HUNDRED FORTY AND FOUR THOUSAND (144,000). The 144,000 are now pictured with Yahwehshua on Mount Zion. HAVING HIS FATHER’S NAME WRITTEN ON THEIR FOREHEADS. Note, 144,000 (12,000 from each of the twelve tribes of Israel) are also mentioned in Rev 7:1-8.

The one exception is the tribe of Dan. It was left out. In Rev 7:3, the 144,000 are called THE SERVANTS OF OUR GOD. They are SEALED…IN THEIR FOREHEADS-Rev 14:3. Here, we are told, they have the name of the Father in their foreheads. It appears the 144,000 are pictured before the heavenly Mount Zion.

Mat 22:3 And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come.

Mat 22:8 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.

Mat 22:10 So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.

Mat 22:11 And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:

Mat 22:12 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.

Luk 12:36 And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.

Luk 14:8 When thou art bidden of any [man] to a wedding, sit not down in the highest room; lest a more honourable man than thou be bidden of him;

What wedding, who, when, where? I hope you see the big picture now how the Scriptures specify how they got there.

They were all beheaded! They were raised and translated into heaven after Yahwehshua was raised from the dead and came out of the graves to appear with the bridegroom on mount Zion in heaven as a bride type. They were all killed, during the 1st part of the Tribulation; being beheaded by Herod all males under 2 years old!

Some consider that Rev- 14 verse one is the earthly Mount Zion after the return of Yahwehshua but this can’t be so ! WHY? Because this is a heavenly scene. as v.3 appears to portray the 144,000 in heaven singing. still those that have a lack of understanding consider that the 144,000 HAVE not died yet, but are upon the earthly Mount Zion singing. Here we see this is not true!


rev.14- 2 And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps: 3 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 redeemed from the earth. who were they these that sang a new song ?.

The 144,000 children became the BRIDE, chosen to shed their blood for the lamb in the days that herod sent out his men to slay all the male children two years and down these 144000 became the first fruits of the lambs resurrection.

Again, we may note the harp in heaven. The harpers are identified. as only those that sang the song of Moses again look in the word of Isaiah 26-19 -20 these are the 144,000 saints that were martyred during Herod’s Tribulation. Harps and singing are mentioned again in Rev 15:2.


Rev 14:3-AND THEY (the 144,000) SUNG AS IT WERE A NEW SONG BEFORE THE THRONE. Here they are before the throne of God in heaven. AND BEFORE THE FOUR BEASTS (or living creatures), AND THE ELDERS: AND NO MAN (or no one) COULD LEARN THAT SONG BUT THE HUNDRED AND FORTY AND FOUR THOUSAND, WHICH WERE REDEEMED (or ransomed, or purchased) (or, we might say, were paid for and taken) FROM THE EARTH, It is noted that Yahwehshua had risen to heaven. The 144,000 have fulfilled their mission upon the earth during the first part of the Tribulation. Isa. 26-19 Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.


Rev 14:4 THESE ARE THEY (or the ones) WHICH WERE NOT DEFILED WITH WOMEN; FOR THEY ARE VIRGINS (or they kept themselves pure). These appear to have never been married and never had been intimate with a woman. Some consider the virginity mentioned here is not of a sexual nature but is referring to spiritual purity. However, the fact that women are mentioned, in connection with this, indicates this means exactly what it says. THESE ARE THEY WHICH FOLLOW THE LAMB (which is Yahwehshua) WHITHERSOEVER HE GOETH. THESE WERE REDEEMED (or ransomed, or purchased) FROM AMONG MEN, BEING (offered as) THE FIRSTFRUITS UNTO Yahweh (or as firstfruits for Yahweh AND TO THE LAMB.

This verse signifies that they were originally the first to be saved after the 1st resurrection and taken into heaven as the bride.

In the 2nd coming resurrection the children will be raised to join the bridegroom and the bride!


Rev 14:5-In an age when cursing and blaspheming Yahweh is commonplace, it is interesting to note in this verse, AND IN THEIR MOUTH WAS FOUND NO GUILE (or lie): FOR THEY ARE WITHOUT FAULT (or defect, or blameless) BEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD.
These 144,000 are alive right now in heaven with Yahwehshua they are his bride waiting for the fruit [her children] at the 2nd coming! hope to see you there!
