144000
So who are the 14400 that are referred to in Revelation 7? Do they represent the church? They are not Jacob's sons as Dan is not included and Manasseh is included. They are not the tribes that inherited the land in Canaan as Levi is included and Dan is excluded as well as Joseph is listed rather than Ephraim. So is the 144000 ethnic Israel who are converted after the Lord returns? Why is this group on the earth while the great multitude in the rest of the chapter are around the throne in heaven? Help me, I am confused. How do we interpret the 144000?

Chapter 6:17 says that the people are terrified and realize that the great day of wrath has come and wonder who can stand against it and voila God provides a mighty missionary army of 144000 jews, 12000 from every tibe to give a testimony and witness of the salvation that god can provide during the tribulation. That's how I read it?
