The Seal of God
God’s people, brought through tribulation,
Had God’s seal upon their foreheads
In Ezekiel the man with the inkhorn
Marked the forehead of those faithful.
Eastern kings wore a signet ring,
A seal to mark their personal
Documents and property.
Here, the mark of the seal indicated
They belonged to God’s power and
His authority. Paul wrote about
Being sealed with the gift of the
Holy Spirit meant belonging to God.
The number 144,000 stands for
Completeness of the Church of God
Which is the new Israel. It includes
Jews and Gentiles who are saved.
The number 144,000 means the
Number of the saved will be
Very, very great. It stands for
Completeness and perfection.
