so i’m confused, 0:42 he reads that virgins were the only ones to learn the new song and were redeemed from the earth, so does that mean if you are not a virgin you can’t be redeemed from earth?
I’m not a preacher, but to me it is a metaphor for the 144,000 who have not worshiped the anti-christ. Some preachers think these are Jews who have accepted Jesus as messiah during the last days. Some think it’s a metaphor for the church, the body of believers who are saved during the tribulation. (By metaphor they mean it’s not literal, but rather a symbol of what is to come. Like if you say we are entering a “day of salvation” it doesn’t mean just one literal day, but it’s a metaphor for a period of time. This is my humble answer to your question.
Look into Mary of Egypt. Just because this group are virgins doesn't mean only virgins throughout time are consideredfor heaven. That would go against God's command to marry and have children.
