CONTINUED EVIDENCE OF THE OCCUPANT OF THE THRONE. Glory, honor and thanks bestowed upon < HIM > who sits on the throne. The ever living one, the one who is very life. Rev. 4:9 The twenty-four elders pay obeisance to < HIM > who is ever living. They also cast their crowns before the throne, showing their honor to Him and thereby are humbling themselves before Him. Rev. 4:10 In the midst, the middle, the very center, the heart of the throne is seen the slain LAMB of God. This is an evidence of the Lord Jesus in the throne. The witness and testimony of the mercy seat, the Lord Jesus will forever be seen in heaven. We will never forget the work of redemption that he accomplished for us. Nor the horrific price He paid to bring us unto Himself. His blood is in heaven, ever fresh and vital. The once for all sacrifice. NEVER AGAIN can God in anyway accept any other offering or sacrifice. If animal sacrifices were reinstated it would be an abomination to God. The blood of Jesus Christ Gods Son cleanseth us from all sin and unrighteousness. 1 Jn. 1:7
THE PREDOMINANCE OF THE LAMB IN THE THRONE. The status of the Lamb is indicated, not only by His location, but also by the seven horns and the seven eyes. We must remember that the book of Revelation symbolically represents certain circumstances and conditions. The number seven is a divine complete number representing fullness or perfect. Horns symbolize power and authority. Consider Hab. 3:4 Horns or beams, rays of light flashing from His pierced hand. Here is the source of His power. Jesus like wise stated that; < all power > was delegated to Him, in heaven and in earth. The eyes denote the fact that there is nothing hidden from the eyes of the Lord. The seven eyes, or the Spirit of the Lord covers the whole earth. Zech. 4:10 Better than < seven spirits > is the < seven fold > Spirit, this is the absolute fullness of the Spirit, without measure. Rev.5:6 AMP. Isaiah prophesied of the seven fold Spirit that would rest upon Him. Then he listed the seven fold Spirit of God that was to abide in the Lord Jesus. Isa. 11:2
THE THRONE OF THE FATHER, THE THRONE OF THE SON. The person who overcomes, in particular the bride, will be an occupant of the throne of heaven. In the mysteries of the person of God, we must always consider the unparalleled unity that exemplifies the Godhead. For this is the throne of the Father and also the throne of the Son of God, the Lord Jesus Christ. The presence of the Holy Spirit is represented in the Father, in the Son and also in the Spirit filled Bride. Rev. 3:21 It is very apparent that there will be a hierarchy in heaven, a government that rules from the throne of God. The twelve Apostles are to be given thrones from which they will judge the twelve tribes of Israel. Mt. 19:28 The redeemed have been given a status of kings and priests who will minister unto the Lord. Rev. 1:6 The one who overcomes will also have a part in assisting in the final judgments of the ungodly. Rev. 2:26-27
