Hugo: 144000 Jehovah's Slaves

在哈米吉頓大戰(Harmagedon)的前夕,烏鴉問螢火蟲,“經上說,‘And I saw, and, look! the Lamb standing upon the Mount Zion, and with him a hundred and forty-four thousand having his name and the name of his Father written on their foreheads.’(Rev 14:1)與‘And they are singing as if a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders; and no one was able to master that song but the hundred and forty-four thousand, who have been bought from the earth. These are the ones that did not defile themselves with women; in fact, they are virgins. These are the ones that keep following the Lamb no matter where he goes. These were bought from among mankind as firstfruits to God and to the Lamb, and no falsehood was found in their mouths; they are without blemish.’(Rev 14:3-5),那麼這十四萬四千人是誰呢?”

螢火蟲提出了意見,“主耶穌基督說,‘If YOU were part of the world, the world would be fond of what is its own. Now because YOU are no part of the world, but I have chosen YOU out of the world, on this account the world hates YOU.’(John 15:19; Mt 24:30-31) ,你能理解這話的真義嗎?”

“主耶穌基督又說,‘If anyone observes my word, he will never see death at all.’(John 8:51; Mt 16:24-25; Mt 5:10; Jn12:25; Mt 10:39) 與‘Who really is the faithful and discreet slave whom his master appointed over his domestics, to give them their food at the proper time? Happy is that slave if his master on arriving finds him doing so. Truly I say to YOU, He will appoint him over all his belongings.’(Mt 24:45-47; Jn 21:15-19; Mt 25:1-2; Mt 25:29; Mt 25:31-40; Lk 12:37-38:Mt 24:40-44) 與‘I am the resurrection and the life. He that exercises faith in me, even though he dies, will come to life; and everyone that is living and exercises faith in me will never die at all.’(John 11:25-26; Jn 6:47; Lk 13:24; Jn 6:44; Mt 13:47-50; Jn 3:3; Jn 3:15;Jn 3:16;Jn 4:13-14; Mt 19:29),他們都是認真遵守‘Jehovah's Commmandments’(《Ten Commandments》)的Jehovah's Slaves,不是嗎?”

“經上說,‘And they sing a new song, saying: You are worthy to take the scroll and open its seals, because you were slaughtered and with your blood you bought persons for God out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation, and you made them to be a kingdom and priests to our God, and they are to rule as kings over the earth.’(Rev 5:9-10) 與‘And they are singing as if a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders; and no one was able to master that song but the hundred and forty-four thousand, who have been bought from the earth.’(Rev 14:3),這些144000 Jehovah's Slaves將與主耶穌基督一同在天上作王(Rev 20:4),不是嗎?”

“經上說,‘After these things I saw, and, look! a great crowd, which no man was able to number, out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes; and there were palm branches in their hands. And they keep on crying with a loud voice, saying: Salvation [we owe] to our God, who is seated on the throne, and to the Lamb.’(Rev 7:9-10),這些非144000人的Jehovah's Slaves將與耶和華(Rev 21:3)一同安居在New Earth(Rev 21:1-4; Is 35:6; John5:28-29; Is 33:24; Ps 72:16),不是嗎?”
