Added to the ' church ' to preach the Gospel? with 144000 Jews? Where does it say they are sealed by the Holy Spirit until the day of redemption? . We know that being sealed is the indwelling Of the HS in Ephesians.

You are now running from the presented truth, the 144,000 (Servants) of God, are (Sealed) will you suggest that this is a (Different) seal than all servants of God, the Bible teaches only one seal, the Holy Spirit.

So everytime the word ' seal ' shows up ,its the Holy Spirit ?
1¶And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.
2And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof? here ?

So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and setting a watch. here ?

You have stated the Holy Spirit is removed during the tribulation, your claim is false.

The 144,000 preach the (Everlasting Gospel) you think they will do this without the Holy Spirit, Big Smiles!

Revelation 14:4-6KJV
4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.
5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.
6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,

You can only come to salvation by being born of the Holy Spirit, that includes during the tribulation.

John 3:5KJV
5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

Those seen below are saved believers, that have come out of the great tribulation.

Revelation 7:13-14KJV
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.

I'm pretty sure we are called believers in Scripture...

31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

This is why your not understanding. Your regeneration preceding faith belief ,'glasses' means you have to view certain texts a certain way . Do you think they are preaching 1cor 1.15 1-4 during the tribulation??

Unbelief condemns a person, not because it is an unforgiven sin, but because it is the exclusive point of access to the grace. (Rom. 5:2)

Christ’s life, not his death is what saves. (Rom. 5:10; 1 Cor. 15:17)
Sinner is saved by regeneration, not atonement. (Tit. 3:5)

Glorification is what’s limited, not atonement. (Rom. 3:23; 8:17-30)

When Christ said, “It is finished,” on the cross, everyone was still in their sins as per 1 Cor. 15:17.

Atonement is one component of many components in salvation. It alone is not what saves. (Tit. 3:5; Rom. 5:10)

Atonement is a prerequisite for salvation, not the execution of it. (Rom. 5, 8; 2 Cor. 5; Tit. 3:5).

The Atonement must be received. (Rom. 5:11, 17; Jn. 1:12; 1 Cor. 15:1-4)

The Atonement does not glorify anyone. (Rom. 8)

What Calvinists call “the golden chain of redemption” contains no direct reference to the atonement. (Rom. 8:29-30)

Belief that salvation for anyone was secured on the cross constitutes a denial of the necessity of the resurrection (1 Cor. 15:17)

Salvation is eternally secured by the sealing of the spirit, not “election.” (Eph. 1:13-14; 4:30; 2 Cor. 1:22)

There is no sealing of the spirit before Pentecost or after the harpazo of the church. (Eph. 4:30; John 14:17; Heb. 6:4-6; 10:26-29)

Belief is not the cause of being saved (delivered) but a product of already having been saved. In the new birth we are quickened together with Christ. Eph 2:5. We are in him, and he is in us. 2 Tim 2:13, If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful, he cannot deny himself.

Yet no verse says we are born again before we believe . Yes I know John 3 is stretched to fit ,but seriously this is Absent in the text . It comes as a huge shock to anyone who has read the bible that a certain group teaches ' regeneration precedes faith ' . R c Sprouls testimony is a great example . Calvinism should be rejected on this teaching alone . Let alone Lordship salvation.

In A Nutshell (y)

Romans 10:9-10KJV
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

Saved, salvation, in Greek = delivered, deliverance. We are delivered eternally, and we are delivered, as we sojourn here in this world.

For instance; When we have been born again, and commit a sin, we lose our fellowship, temporary, until we repent and God forgives us, which brings a deliverance that we receive, as we sojourn here in this world. The "believing", and "confessing" are the products of already having been born again, not the cause of being born again.

The natural man, 1 Cor 2:14, cannot discern the things of the Spirit, and would never believe, and confess, spiritual things, and even thinks them to be foolishness.

The passage he used says belief in the english, but In the greek. The word is used in the sense that one hs confidence in something, one trusts,one has faith it is not mere belief

but its ok. You all just go on and prove you believe in easy believism. That one can say a sinners pray void any. True repentance and faith and be saved
