  heathen: woman should be exempt from door2door work, but in heaven there are no genders. wait and see.

  There are 4 groups in the context of the Great Crowd, Rev.7:

  The Angels your pick.

  The 12 tribes in general all worshippers since Jacob/Moses

  the 144 000 OUT OF the 12 tribes and that are to be executed and rule closely to Christ

  wt has confused anointed with SEALED.
