REVELATION CHAPTER 7
1 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.
2 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,
3 Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.
4 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.
5 Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand.
6 Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nepthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand.
7 Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand.
8 Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.
9 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;
10 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.
11 And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,
12 Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen.
13 And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they?
14 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.
15 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.
16 They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat.
17 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.

What meaning of this text?There were angels who held a great gale that had the power to destroy the whole earth, but was told them not to do anything bad to the earth before the elect of God were sealed on the forehead.And were sealed one hundred forty-four thousand of the tribes of Israel.This number may be symbolic.Anyway, people at John time believed that some people were marked for identification and were thus spared from destruction.But there were also other people who were in countless numbers, were ordinary people who were really killed by persecution promoted by religious and political intolerance management.It is important to understand that these aspects still happen today, many today, unfortunately washed their clothes in the blood of persecution and injustice.The text brings hope and shows the thirst for justice of those who suffer injustice and persecution.There is only one way to walk on;and it has nothing to do with making more war, nothing to do with fight back or revenge.The only way is to seek refuge fountain of water offered by the spiritual child of God.Jesus is the spiritual son, and as spiritual I also understand as conceptual descendent, the concept of being a child is the human nature cocept which was beaded by Jesus in his preaching.The water of life and its source is a world of peace, hope and positivity.This is the Kingdom of God, the kingdom of heaven, is that we hope will be built in the future on earth.It has nothing to do with a world inhabited by supernatural humans living forever as preach Jehovah's Witnesses and others.The reign of the conceptual descendant, the known spiritual son of Yahweh begins when this old world of the present time give place to a world transformed and new.Here there will be a new heaven and a new earth.
