The 144,000 are rapture zealot preachers who have some odd distinctions that set them apart from the world...They are virgins as they have never had sexual intercourse and they have never lied from from birth. They come different cultures and they will be a witness for Christ when anarchy occurs during the rapture. As far as I can tell, these preachers will be a witness of Christ when every Christian is taken out of a world in anarchy. If you have ever uttered a lie or have ever had sex...ur out.
