Today we had a discussion about whether or not someone who is called in this age, but fails to be chosen at the 7th Trump (144,000 Saints of the better Resurrection) would they get a second chance to be in the family as part of the Innumerable Multitude. Obviously it's better to make it with repenting and overcoming, so Messiah can be fully formed in you by the Seventh Trump as it is the better resurrection.
I think everyone who is not called in this age or who has been called and failed to overcome or anyone that's not part of the 144,000 will have their physical life extended into the millennium. The Millennial Sabbath is when everyone will get to know our Creator perfectly without any interference from the adversary.
Most say that people who die in this age won't get a chance to be physically alive until the first hundred years of the last great day, based on Rev 20:5 and the following scriptures:
Rev 20: v1. And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.
V2. And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,
V3. And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years (Millennial Sabbath) should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season (first hundred years of Last Great Day).
A former prisoner I used to study with said he thought the bottomless pit may be in fact a black hole because not even light can escape a black hole. And Angels are described as light. Heb 1: v7. And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
The light you see in the black hole is the event horizon right before it’s absorbed by infinite gravity. It would take infinite strength to escape a black hole. Only the Father and Son have infinite strength. The rest of creation including Satan is regulated by the Son.
V4. 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 Messiah, and for the word of YahwehShua, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received [his] mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they (144,000 Saints in spiritual bodies) lived and reigned with YahwehZidkenu a thousand years.
V5. But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This [is] the first resurrection.
If our Creator is speaking physically, then they would be correct; however if our Creator is speaking spiritually there may be another interpretation. In verse 4 above it's clear our Creator just handed out 144,000 spiritual bodies to the Saints of the better Resurrection. Perhaps he is saying that he's not going to hand out any more spiritual bodies (or another spiritual resurrection) until after the millennium which is a true fact. So it could be saying that the rest of the spiritually dead don't have a chance for a spiritual body till after the millennium, but it does not preclude having their physical life extended into the millennium.
Others will quote this scripture noting that it's appointed for all men to die once and then the judgment.
Heb 9: v27. And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
Therefore, if he's speaking about physical death rather than the spiritual, have the scriptures contradicted themselves? Did Lazarus die physically twice contradicting the word of YahwehShua? Yahweh forbid!
The scriptures cannot contradict themselves. Our Creator appoints the day of your final physical death when he is done working with your mind in a physical body (see the paper titled Life & Death). Lazarus may have his physical life extended a third time during the millennium if he's not one of the 144,000 at the 7th Trump. Likewise, the two physical witnesses during the last 3 and 1/2 years prior to the Seventh Trump are likely Moses and Elijah who have had their physical life extended like Lazarus after 4 days or 4,000 years. Moses and Elijah are the only two besides our Creator who are able to fast for 40 days without food or water which is a human impossibility without the Holy Spirit.
1Ki 19: v8. And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the strength of that meat forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of Yahweh.
V9. And he came thither unto a cave, and lodged there; and, behold, the word of Yahweh [came] to him, and he said unto him, What doest thou here, Elijah?
Deu 9: v9. When I was gone up into the mount to receive the tables of stone, [even] the tables of the covenant which Yahweh made with you, then I abode in the mount forty days and forty nights, I neither did eat bread nor drink water:
Mat 4: v1. Then was Messiah led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.
V2. And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred.
Peter and others also had a vision of the Messiah and possibly Moses and Elijah in their glorified spiritual bodies.
Mat 17: v1. And after six days Yahshua Messiah taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,
V2. And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.
V3. And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.
V4. Then answered Peter, and said unto Messiah, Yahweh, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias (would Peter want to make a tabernacle to Moses and Elijah if they were just in physical bodies or is he just dumbfounded to see them physically living again after thousands of years?). Regardless, we know that Moses and Elijah will eventually be in spiritual bodies with the 144,000 and work with YahwehZidkenu during the Millennium and thereafter.
In the Millennial Sabbath (part of the New Coveanant) even the gentiles will come and worship our Creator at Ezekiel's temple (unlike the Old Covenant).
Zec 14: v16. And it shall come to pass, [that] every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, Yahweh of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles (see and understand the excellent article by Bob Bondurant, Fall Feasts truth and lies your salvation depends on it!).
What a loving Creator we have! Everyone who is not one of the 144,000 will get a chance in the flesh for a thousand years to know him perfectly (perfectly begotten) in the Millennial Sabbath.
Jer 31: v34. And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the El YahwehShua: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith YahwehShua: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
Then in the first hundred years of the Last Great Day all human creation who are not part of the 144,000 will get their chance to be in the family as part of the Innumerable Multitude if they can overcome the adversary at this point in time. If they fail, they'll still get a spiritual body and live outside the kingdom eternally. Remember death is swallowed up by life.
1Co 15: v54. So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
V55. O death, where [is] thy sting? O grave, where [is] thy victory?
Rev 20: v14. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
Also take a close look again at Revelation.
Rev 20: v10. And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast (people who fail to overcome in this age or the first hundred years or the Last Great Day) and the false prophet [are,] and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever (a period of time likely a few microseconds for a physical body, perhaps longer for a spiritual body that Satan and the fallen angels have, our Creator is not a terrorist!)
V15. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
Then later the same physical and spiritual bodies that were destroyed are living eternally outside the kingdom or outside the family.
Rev 21: v1. And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
V27. And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither [whatsoever] worketh abomination, or [maketh] a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb’s book of life (The 144,000 Saints of the better Resurrection{7th Trump)} and the Innumerable Multitude {later after 1st 100 years Last Great Day}).
Outside are the same ones that hit the lake of fire. Now they are purified in new spiritual bodies, even the adversary.
Rev 22: v15. For without [are] dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie (prior to being purified in the lake of fire).
Num 31: v23. Every thing that may abide the fire, ye shall make [it] go through the fire, and it shall be clean:
Mrk 9: v49. For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be salted with salt.
Remember he reconciles things in heaven and the only things in heaven that need rectifying are the adversary and fallen angels.
Col 1: v20. And, having made peace through the blood of his stake, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, [I say,] whether [they be] things in earth, or things in heaven.
Focus on the spiritual. What are the 4 spiritual resurrections? First, YahwehShua Messiah at the end of the weekly Sabbath during the Feast of Unleavened Bread 2000 years ago. Second, the 144,000 (better resurrection) at the 7th Trump following the 3 & 1/2 years of the 2 Witnesses. Third, the innumerable Multitude after the first 100 years of the Last Great Day. The fourth, includes everyone else who fails (even the adversary and fallen angels) will nonetheless get a spiritual body and live eternally outside the kingdom or outside the family.
Remember he loves all his creation. He just does not love our wrong thoughts or deeds. He loves all creation and will fix all creation including Satan and the fallen angels!
Run the race to win. Shoot for the 144,000. The better Resurrection at the Seventh Trumpet! There is no 2nd chance to be in 144,000 after the 7th Trump. You might get a shot at being in the Innumerable Multitude later.
HalleluYahwehShua!
