What are the 7 Spirits of God? What are the 4 beasts? I have examined the identity of the 24 elders who I believe to be a picture of the newly raptured church and the 4 beasts who are Seraphim.
Although chapter 4 is relatively short and straightforward, it comes with a lot of questions who are the 24 elders?
ISAIAH 11 SEVEN SPIRITS OF GOD FULL
Lastly, he describes 4 “beasts”, “And in the midst of the throne, and around the throne, were four living creatures full of eyes in front and in back” (Revelation 4:6). He sees seven lamps around God’s throne which represent the 7 Spirits of God (Revelation 4:5). Next are the 24 elders, “Around the throne were twenty-four thrones, and on the thrones I saw twenty-four elders sitting, clothed in white robes and they had crowns of gold on their heads” (Revelation 4:4). We have to keep in mind that John is using limited human language and understanding to describe things that are beyond human comprehension. And He who sat there was like a jasper and a sardius stone in appearance and there was a rainbow around the throne, in appearance like an emerald” (Revelation 4:3).įrom the throne was lightning, thundering, and voices while before the throne he sees a sea of glass resembling crystal (Revelation 4:5-6). We first get a description of God’s throne and the appearance of God himself, “…and behold, a throne set in heaven, and One sat on the throne. Chapter 4 is largely him describing what he sees. After John writes the letters to the 7 churches, he suddenly finds himself in the throne room of heaven in the spirit.
