The seal of God And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads. (Revelation 9:1-4) Who are those that have the seal of God in their heads? Lets take a step back in the book of Revelation and find out what the seal of God is and who it will effect. This is what John the revelator had seen. 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. 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, Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. 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. (Revelation 7:1-4) Many believe these 144,000 are the only ones to be saved. Are there more that will be saved? Let's read down a few verses and find out what the Bible says. And After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb. (Revelation 7:9-10) There was a number to big to count that will be clothed in white robes and will be saved. And they are from all nations and races. So... Exactly who are those in the white robes and how did they get there? We need to take a few steps back again to Revelation 3 and we will find out who they are. He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels. (Revelation 3:5) These are the ones that overcame the false messiah in the tribulation period. They did not follow Satan and his deceptive ways and stood true to Christ. He And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they? And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them. They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes. (Revelation 7:13-17) These are the ones who have the seal of God in their foreheads and overcame the mark of the beast. Do you have the seal of God?Keep The Faith,Pastor Bart>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.I have posted many times that the Mark of the Beast is the oppisite of the Mark/Seal of God perhaps this Study on Gods seal will help those who are trying to understand see more clearly ...
