Revelation 7:10
10 And[kai] cried[krazo] with a loud[megas] voice,[phone] saying,[lego] Salvation[soteria] to our[hemon] God[theos] which[ho] sitteth[kathemai] upon[epi] the throne,[thronos] and[kai] unto the Lamb.[arnion] KJV-Interlinear
10 and
they cry out with a loud voice, saying, "Salvation to our God who sits on
the throne, and to the Lamb." NASB
God and the Lamb both
identified as specific persons, are here identified as
one and the same person.
Just as you might toast
the host at a party, saying several descriptive things, all referring to the
host, so too, here the toast is of salvation, and it is ascribed to one person,
namely God, the Lamb, the Son, and as we all have come to know Him, Jesus
Christ.
And this is the cheer and
the praise, all belonging to one person, the unique person of the universe,
both God and man in one person, simultaneously.
As
it has been repeated over and over, again and again, Deu.
6:4, ‘The Lord is God, the Lord is unique.’
Salvation belongs to God,
and to God alone. There is no other source, no other alternate, no other
alternative, to the one and only salvation presented in the Bible.
No other religion, no
other belief system, no other philosophy, nothing else can replace or better,
that which comes from God, Jesus Christ.
And when all of these
people get to heaven, they (we), will all sing the same song of praise, and
acknowledge that there is but one truth, one Lord, one salvation, and that is
Christ.
Leaving behind the turmoil
of the world will be a blessing, regardless of what pain and suffering many
must endure before they are removed from the world.
And even though there are
many opinions and beliefs, even within the Christian faith on this earth, all
of those differences will fade away, and all will come to know the one and
perfect truth regarding life and reality, in heaven.
Now in heaven there exists five groups – God, angels, elders, others mentioned previously,
and those in white robes.Can you
identify the last three groups?
