JOHN SAW GOD SITTING ON THE THRONE IN HEAVEN

Revelation 4, As I looked, I saw a door standing open in heaven, and the same voice I had heard before, which sounded like a mighty trumpet blast, spoke to me and said, “Come up here and I will show you what must happen in the future!” And instantly I was in spirit there in heaven and saw oh, the glory of it! a throne and someone sitting on it! Great bursts of light flashed forth from him as from a glittering diamond or from a shining ruby, and a rainbow glowing like an emerald encircled his throne. Twenty-four smaller thrones surrounded his throne, with twenty-four Elders sitting on them; all were clothed in white, with golden crowns upon their heads. Day after day and night after night the kept on saying, “Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty the one who was, and is, and is to come.” And when the Living Beings gave glory and honor and thanks to the one sitting on the throne, who lives forever and ever, the twenty-four Elders fell down before him and worshiped him, the Eternal Living One, and cast their crowns before the throne, singing, “O Lord, you are worthy to receive the glory and the honor and the power, for you have created all things. They were created and called into being by your act of will.” FRIENDS, JOHN WAS A WITNESS THAT THERE IS A HEAVEN. THE 24 ELDERS WERE SITTING ON THRONES NEXT TO GOD AND EVERYONE WORSHIPPED GOD ! Luke 2:14-16, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us. And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.
