A Lamb stood on the Mount Sion..." The Lamb is Christ, and Mount Sion, is the Elects, or the Church of Christ. These are the Elects: both in Heaven, and on Earth. Not the Organization that is called the Church of Christ. But this Church: Mount Sion, are the Redeemed Elects of God. A LAMB STOOD ON MOUNT SION: Sion, is the Elects, or the Church of Christ. These are the Elects: both in Heaven, and on Earth.
This Church Mount Sion, is the Church of Christ: Mount Zion. These were the first to be redeemed under the New Testament: the Elects of God. The Children of God symbolically Speaking: We are Mount Sion, or Zion. As in Hebrews 12:22 " But you are come unto Mount Sion. You are come unto the city of the living God, and the heavenly Jerusalem..." Hebrews 12:23 " To the general assembly, and Church of the firstborn..." You are come to Mount Zion: these having their names written in the Book of Life. WE ARE THE SPIRITUAL MOUNT SION: with Our Names Written in Heaven. We are come unto the City, which is the Church, unto the assembly of the Church of the Firstborn.
NOW BACK TO THE HUNDRED FORTY AND FOUR THOUSAND: Revelation 14:1 " ... And with him an hundred forty and four thousand..." The hundred forty and four thousand, are the twelve Tribes of Israel, and the City of the living God, and the Heavenly Jerusalem. As in Hebrews 12:23 " To the general assembly, and Church of the firstborn..."
You are come to Mount Zion: these having their names written in the Book of Life. THE SPIRITUAL MOUNT SION: with our names written in Heaven. We are come unto the City, which is the Church. Unto the assembly of the Church of the Firstborn. Revelation 14:1 " And with him an hundred forty and four thousand.
The Hundred Forty and Four Thousand, are the First to be redeemed. The First to be Redeemed under the new testament covenant under Jesus, and his Disciples Personal Ministry. We read in history that the Jews excepted Christ as personal savor for over a century. For over a century this was the time the hundred 44,000 were redeemed. These hundred forty four thousand, were the first to be redeemed under the New Testament Covenant.
Having their Father's name written in their foreheads." The Father's Name is the Seal of the Father. The Seal of God is the Holy Spirit of Promise, as in Ephesians. Ephesians 1:13 "... After that you believed, you were sealed with that Holy Spirit of Promise." As in Revelations 7:3 " Saying, Hurt not the earth. Hurt not the earth... till we have sealed the servants of our God. Hurt not the earth, until we seal the servants of our God in their Foreheads." The Seal or the Father's Name is the Holy Spirit of Promise. The Father's Name or Seal is in the Forehead, meaning in the Mind.
THE VOICE OF MANY WATERS: Revelation 14:2 " I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters. I heard as the voice of thunder. I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps." The Voice of many Waters is those that were awaken in the Fifth, and Sixth Seal. These were they that went through the Great Winter Tribulation of Martyring.
The Great Winter Tribulation of Martyring: up to and after the thirty-year War. (You can find these things explained in Revelation 6:9...12 in this Book.)
THE HUNDRED AND 44,000 THAT LEARNED THAT SONG: Revelation 14:3 " They sung as it were a new song before the Lamb. They sung a new song before the Throne, and before the Four Beasts. Before the Four Beasts, and the Elders. No man could learn that Song but the Hundred and 44,000. The Hundred and 44,000, which were redeemed from the earth." The Hundred and 44,000 could learn that Song. This was the Song of Redemption under the Saving Grace of Christ Jesus. The Hundred and 44,000 were the Redeemed. These were Redeemed under Jesus, and His Twelve Disciples Ministry. These, being the First Fruits unto the Lamb, and unto God. The Hundred 44,000 were able to learn that Song. This was because they were so Close to that Day and time. (This is explained in the next Verse 4 and 5.)
THE FIRST FRUITS UNTO GOD AND THE LAMB: Revelation 14:4 " These are they which were not defiled with Woman; For they are Virgins. These Virgins, which followed the Lamb were-so-ever he goes. These were redeemed from among men, being the First Fruits unto God and to the Lamb." The First Fruits of God, and to the Lamb was the Hundred 44,000. These were not defiled with woman. The Word Woman is used symbolically meaning Church. As in Revelation 12:1 "...A woman clothed with the Sun, and the Moon under her feet... This Woman was the Old Testament Church as it went from the Old Testament Church to the New Testament Church.
