Hello jiggyfly,
Christian, as a person which truly accepts Christ's sacrifice on the cross.
The term "Christian" was first put forth in derision by those who were referring to the disciples of John and the Lord that were of the house of Israel. It has been gradually inclusive of the nations, and has taken on a less offensive form, and now has become the moniker of the gentile believers as well.Are the 144,000 (12,000 from each tribe) Christian?

No, they are sealed in that they are protected as they travel accross Europe to "the appointed place" the British Isles and coastlands of W Europe.Are the 144,000 (12,000 from each tribe) Christian?

No, they won't be christians. They will be Jews who have understood that Yeshua was and is their Messiah. Christianity is for us gentiles.

Dan doesn't need to be protected from the Romans or Barbarian hordes as that tribe was sea-faring.
12000 & 144000 symbolises perfect government - of God in the affairs of man.
Each of the 7 "times" since the fall of Jerusalem marks a significant point in the history of these tribes and their opponents.
The RobsterWhat are they going to the British Isles for? To grab a guinness?

Hello Hammerstone,
You stated: What is the seal of God in their foreheads? If you know the answer to that, then you know the answer to this question.
My response: I believe that the seal is given to the 144K as divine protection against the remaining trumpet and vial plagues. This would imply that the 144K are the only Christians alive at that time. If there were any other Christians alive at that time, then those unsealed Christians would also be affected by these plagues designed to affect the rest of the world and humanity.
What are your thoughts on this special seal?

if there was only room in heaven for 144,000 then the quota would have been filled years ago and we wouldn't have a chance at salvation. There are probably more peopelw tih St in front of their names than 144,000. So no, they are the first to be resurrected, the other dead are judged later.
