The LORD is on His throne in Heaven, the location before which God's resurrected saints will occupy on the Sea of Glass.

Unlike tumultuous waves, the sea of glass before God's throne is tranquil and serene. Before we can stand on this sea of glass, we must be set apart and cleansed.

Stephen's early martyrdom stands as a striking example of faith and commitment, to the extent that even Christ stood as He witnessed the deacon's sacrifice.

Stephen's martyrdom and his compassion on his persecutors, followed by the reaction against his brutal murder, resulted in a rapid spreading of the Gospel.
