    No, only 36K of them will be Jews-those of Judah, Benjamin, & Levi. The rest will be Israelis of the other tribes.

    Preterists lump all anti-preterism with dispies, as part of the false pret doctrines.

    Yes, Jesus shall reign from Jerusalem with His saints, over mortal men for 1K years while Satan is banished. But there'll be a rebellion by mortals against Him when the millenium ends & Satan if freed. But Jesus will swiftly end it & Satan shall be cast into the LOF.

    If you understand the Covenant nature of salvation, and what happened at the fall, you would come to understand the blessing of biblical election which is as much a mystery to you as eschatology is to th OP.

    The genre of “apocalyptic” literature is full of symbolism by its nature. It is an aspect of that genre that scholars have acknowledged for centuries.

    Concerning the 144000, it is clearly symbolic. It is found in Rev 7 and refers to the number of the “Sons of Israel” that have been sealed. Each tribe has 12,000 that are sealed. 12 tribes of 12,000 equals 144,000.

    The number 1000 is considered a very large number too large to count in Hebrew culture. This number cannot be taken literally.

    Peace to you

    This is ridiculous, if you are asserting that the Israelites could not count to a thousand. Many times, the Israelites numbered the people in the census and counted large numbers to a level much smaller than a thousand. For example,

    Num. 26:51 These were the numbered of the children of Israel, six hundred thousand and a thousand seven hundred and thirty.

    The Israelites were not some kind of "primitive stone-age Neanderthals" who could not count to a 1000.

    Scripture does not reveal that there is a so-called genre named "apocalyptic" that is "full of symbolism by its nature." The so-called scholars who espouse that notion incorporate their biases into their teachings.

    The gospel is freely offered to all. Using the word whosoever does not change a thing.

    what exactly is this Good News, that is "offered" to all?. that only a very small number will be saved, and the greater majority will sadly end up in eternal punishment? Would you tell anyone that you have Good News for them, that they are probably going to hell, because Jesus Christ probably did not die for them? If not, why not, as this is your Gospel!

    Symbolism running amok tells us that those were neither actual numbers nor really Jewish people, but refers to saved Christians?

    So God is wrong to judge those who demand to not have Jesus save them from their sins?

    Brother, have you ever studied out the number of verses in relation to that subject?
    I did not just invent that statistic. I tried to prove it. Please watch just a couple of minutes beginning at the 44:30 time-mark. The section is not about 2nd coming verses, but nevertheless helpful.
