God's Throne

Sermon by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

Modern Bible readers often have difficulty relating to ancient metaphors, including agricultural, weights and measures, idioms, and government—especially monarchy and the extensive throne room episodes used to illustrate God's supreme authority. We see a dramatic contrast between Solomon's opulent throne surrounded by 14 carved lions, symbolizing immense earthly power, with Almighty God's heavenly throne in Revelation 4-5 surrounded by majestic angelic beings including the 24 elders, 7 spirits, and 4 living creatures, worshiping Him continually, demonstrating the purity of His presence, as well as the perfection of His heavenly government. As God's called-out saints, we must humbly express awe, praise, and worship of His incomparable sovereignty, power, and might.
