All we need is 144,000 in ONE generation to be SEALED and the world ends! The time has arrived for the end to come. We are now going for that specific number that was revealed in Revelation 7:4. We have a spread sheet where we keep track of all people who study, accept, and teach the message that seals the 144,000. You can look at the spread sheet to see how many more people we need before the 144,000 are sealed.

"I heard the number of the sealed, 144,000, sealed from every tribe of the sons of Israel." (Revelation 7:4 ESV)

This is the number that was revealed in Scripture. So all we need is 144,000 sealed and the world ends and Jesus can resurrect the righteous of all ages.

Everything is held in check until Christ seals the 144,000. This is what everything in the closing work of the plan of salvation is hanging on. The make of the beast, the time of trouble, the close of probation, the second coming of Christ, and the end of the world, ALL DEPENDS ON 144,000 living people being sealed! This is the last and closing work for the Church.

"The true people of God, who have the spirit of the work of the Lord and the salvation of souls at heart, will ever view sin in its real, sinful character. They will always be on the side of faithful and plain dealing with sins which easily beset the people of God. Especially in the closing work for the church, in the sealing time of the one hundred and forty-four thousand who are to stand without fault before the throne of God, will they feel most deeply the wrongs of God's professed people." (Testimonies Volume 3 p. 266)

Do you see how the Spirit of Prophecy shows us clearly that the closing work for the Church is the sealing of the 144,000? When the time came for the work of the Church to close we entered into the sealing time of the 144,000.

This is also shown in Revelation 7:2-4.

"Then I saw another angel ascending from the rising of the sun, with the seal of the living God, and he called with a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm earth and sea, saying, “Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, until we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.” And I heard the number of the sealed, 144,000, sealed from every tribe of the sons of Israel." (Revelation 7:2‭-‬4 ESV)

UNTIL they're sealed, NOTHING regarding the hurting of the earth or time of trouble can happen. Without this special and closing work accomplished, THE WORLD CANNOT END AND JESUS CANNOT COME! But once this special work of the sealing of the 144,000 is accomplished, the world will end and Jesus will come.

The pioneer said, that the sealing of the 144,000 is the last work of the gospel and after this happens the Christian era and probation closes.

“The sealing implies protection and salvation. It is a work of the gospel through which all who effectively share in it will secure everlasting life. The threatened condition that is restrained in order that the sealing work may be accomplished is such that when it takes effect, no further work of the gospel can be accomplished; hence, with the sealing of the 144,000, probation ends; the winds of destruction blow from every quarter, and the great whirlwind of God’s indignation, His last testimony in this mortal state against sin, will sweep the world into its final aspect of ruin and desolation.” {Uriah Smith A Study of the 144,000 pg. 4,5}

Did you hear that? With the sealing of the 144,000 PROBATION ENDS! Therefore the goal is to get 144,000 living believers SEALED in THIS GENERATION! THIS IS OUR WORK! THIS IS THE WORK OF THE THIRD ANGEL! THIS IS THE CLOSING WORK FOR THE CHURCH!

This is the only reason why the world has been going on this long. Jesus never intended us to be in this world of sin so long. He entered into the most holy place of the heavenly sanctuary in 1844 at the termination of the 2300 days of Daniel 8:14 to accomplish the sealing of the 144,000 so He can blot out sins and close probation.

"Unto 2300 days then shall the sanctuary be cleansed." (Daniel 8:14)

This prophecy pointed to His closing work of ministration and the judgement of the dead and living. It was His purpose to go into the most holy place, judge the dead, judge the living, seal the 144,000, send them through the time of trouble, and then return! This was supposed to be accomplished in the first generation of Seventh-day Adventist. What happened?

They rejected the 1888 message of righteousness by faith! This is the very message that seals the 144,000. Later we will explain this in a deeper way, but for now we must give you an overview of why we have been in this world so long and how to get out of here IN THIS GENERATION!

Yes, every generation past 1844, ALL HAD THEIR SHOT AT BEING AMONG THE 144,000 AND BEING TRANSLATED! Being translated means being taken to heaven without death. Jesus wanted to translate the first generation of Seventh-day Adventist. That generation went from 1863 when we were organized as a body to 1903. A Biblical generation is 40 years.

“A GENERATION denotes a particular class of people that have arrived at an age to know between good and evil, at the commencement of a certain period, and who are connected with the history of the events of that period. The children of Israel that came out of Egypt are an example. “Surely there shall not one of those men of this evil generation see that good land, save Caleb and Joshua; they shall go in hither. And the Lord made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until all that generation that had done evil in the sight of the Lord was consumed.” {Advent Review and Sabbath Herald December 9, 1858}

Do you see how long it took for a generation to go off the scene? It took forty years for a generation to pass off the scene. So a Biblical generation is forty years.

God was seeking to get 144,000 righteous in the first generation of Adventist, BUT THEY DID NOT LET HIM DO IT SO THAT ENTIRE GENERATION HAD TO DIE, INCLUDING THE FEW RIGHTEOUS.

Then God sought to get 144,000 righteous in the second generation of Seventh-day Adventist. This generation went from 1903 to 1943. Did they let God produce 144,000 righteous? No, and that generation had to die.

Then the third generation of Seventh-day Adventist came on the scene in 1943. This generation went from 1943 to 1983. Did they as a generation allow God to produce 144,000 righteous or were they an unbelieving generation? Sad to say, they were unbelieving AS A GENERATION and had to die.

Then the fourth generation of Seventh-day Adventist came on the scene from 1983 and it terminates in 2023. Are we going to be the generation that finally allows God to seal 144,000? This generation terminates in 2023. As there are Adventist from the third generation still alive today in the fourth, so there will be Adventist alive at the beginning of the fifth generation. Are we with this generation going to be translators? This is the most important question?

The goal is to get 144,000 LIVING righteous. The reason we need them to be LIVING is so the judgment can pass from the judgement of the dead to the judgment of the living. The judgment of the living is when Jesus seals the 144,000!

What are the 144,000 sealed with?

"Bind up the testimony, SEAL THE LAW among my disciples." (Isaiah 8:16)

We are sealed with the law of God. The law is the righteousness of Christ.

"But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness." (Romans 9:31)

Do you see how the law is the righteousness of Christ? Therefore, when the Holy Spirit seals the 144,000, He seals them with the RIGHTEOUSNESS OF CHRIST!

Once Christ's righteousness is sealed upon the 144,000, they are prepared to stand up against the beast, his image, and his mark. It will be impossible for anybody sealed to receive the mark of the beast which is Sunday worship. Why? Because the fourth commandment of the law is SEALED upon them!

Also all the Ten Commandments are sealed upon them and this makes it impossible for them to worship the beast, his image, or receive his mark. The law says, "thou shalt have no other gods before me," and that precept is SEALED upon them.

Can you now see why we NEED to be sealed in order for the closing scenes to take place? All we need is 144,000 to receive the righteousness of Christ and the sealing will be accomplished and we can go home!

Are you willing to receive the righteousness of Christ? To make it as simple as possible, to receive the righteousness of Christ all you need to do is REPENT. Confess all your sins to God and believe that He has forgiven you, then He puts the righteousness of Christ upon you! That simple.

We will later go into more detail on how to receive the righteousness of Christ when we introduce you to the 2-10-10 justification technique. For now make sure ALL OF YOUR SINS ARE CONFESSED AND FORGIVEN!
