The bible says that 144000 people will go to heaven (in revelation I think) and all of them are from the tribes of israel. Thes people will rule over the new earth.That is not fair. Why does he like jews the best?

All of the Western religions and Islam come from the same tradition. So far as the specifics go...God doesn't "love" the Jews...Christians don't understand that the Jews were chosen to do living penance for the sins of humanity. In the end the Jews for suffering that penance will be the gatekeepers of heaven...the 144000 people you refer to. PEACE!

He does not love Jews the best;He loves them equally. They are the Chosen race as the tool to bring all the peoples (as many among the population as are willing) back unto Him. There are theories that when the tribes of Israel were scattered, much of the blood got mixed among the Gentile races. It is likely that most of us have at least a thin amount of Israelitish blood. Plus, most of the Jews today have at least a little Gentile blood mixed into them. So you see, it is not a matter of blood. The arms of Jesus Christ are open to all.

That is not what the 144,000 reference means. God loves all people the same and wants all to come to him. The New Testament clearly says that all who put their faith and trust in Jesus Christ will be with him for eternity.
The interpretation I understand is that this represents a group of Jewish people that will come to faith in Christ in the last days.
However - we need to be aware with prophecy that God will do this in his time and in in the manner he chooses. Like the ancient prophecies of Christ.
We cannot exactly how but do know that it will all be fulfilled.

stay on the same church as long because of fact the doctrine remains biblical. do not difficulty while you at the instant are not chosen all or maybe a brilliant sort of the time for specific stuff. undergo in techniques the myth of the employees. additionally, do not forget each and all of the biblical characters who stayed in the same place doing God's could even while the human beings mistreated them, like Daniel, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Paul, and Jesus Himself. so a techniques as not including the hot beats or making a track louder, do not difficulty approximately what the human beings will think of if God has referred to as you to do it (otherwise, maybe your pastor meant another skills or utilising your song to minister in a clean way). by ability of the others "bringing revival," could your pastor meant it as in by way of them, God had laid on his heart to do some thing new (like how God chosen Paul because of fact the 1st missionary to the gentiles quite of Peter or John; or how Jesus chosen "sinners" quite of Pharisees (like Nicodemus or Joseph of Arimathea; i don't recommend like Caiphas) to be his disciples).

first off, god loves everyone equally, says so in the biblie, secondly, that is a myth, all people have open access to the "new earth," because god forgives aka redemption
