16 And [kai] the four [tessares] and [kai] twenty [eikosi] elders, [presbuteros] which [ho] sat [kathemai] before [enopion] God [theos] on [epi] their [autos] seats, [thronos] fell [pipto] upon [epi] their [autos] faces, [prosopon] and [kai] worshipped [proskuneo] God, [theos] KJV-Interlinear

16 And the twenty-four elders, who sit on their thrones before God, fell on their faces and worshiped God, NASB

The twenty-four elders were first introduced in Rev. 4:4, and are representative of the Raptured Church Age believers, who were taken up into heaven at the Rapture. This is from the perspective of Johns vision of these future events. The Rapture from our perspective, of course, has not yet occurred.

But it will occur at some point in the future, and when we are all in heaven, and while the world is undergoing its massive judgments during that future Tribulation period, we will be fully aware of the events that are taking place, as they are taking place.

And even though we will already have our resurrection bodies, and our evaluation before Christ will have been completed, and we will already have received our eternal rewards, or at least the formal notice of them, along with our crowns for being a part of the Royal Family, we will all still give honor and proper respect and worship, to Christ.

Our crowns and honors and recognitions will be set aside and we will all know and understand the truth perfectly, and every one of us, will of our own volition, voluntarily kneel before Christ.

For were it not for Christ, none of us would even exist. For from dust, He gave humanity the ability to perpetuate biological life, and from nothing Christ created our individual human life.
