.. New Apostolics are extermely millenarian. They firmly believe we live in the end time and that Christ's glorious return is imminent. The only thing holding back this event is that the last soul comprising the elect 144,000 firstlings has not yet been found and sealed with the Holy Spirit. When that happens the firstlings, also known as the Bride of Christ (who, incidentally, will be taken only from the ranks of the New Apostolics), will be resurrected into heaven for the wedding feast while the horror that is Armageddon will commence on earth for three years, resulting in the death of approximately one-third the world's population. New Apostolics not virtuous enough to have made it as firstlings will be saved the horrors of Armageddon by being divinely transported into a safe place in a desert.
