I remember doing a
Bible study on Revelation one time.
After reading the following passage I made the off hand comment that if
that was really what Heaven is like it sounds pretty boring. From the looks I got I thought they might
stone me. :)
Revelation 4:6-11(NKJV)
6Before the throne there £was a sea of glass, like
crystal. And in the midst of the throne, and around the throne, were four living creatures full of eyes in
front and in back.
7The first living creature was like a lion, the second living creature
like a calf, the third living creature had a face like a man, and the fourth
living creature was like a flying
eagle.
8The
four living creatures, each having six wings, were full of eyes around and
within. And they do not
rest day or night, saying: “Holy,£ holy, holy,
Lord God Almighty, Who was and
is and is to come!”
9Whenever the living creatures give glory
and honor and thanks to Him who sits on the throne, who lives forever and
ever,
10the twenty-four elders fall down before Him who sits on
the throne and worship Him who lives forever and ever, and cast their crowns
before the throne, saying:
11 “You are
worthy, £O Lord, To receive glory and honor and power;
For You created all things, And
by Your will they £exist and were created.”
So let me see if I
have this right. The creatures say their
thing 24/7, they never take a break.
When the elders hear the creatures the elders then fall to the floor
worshipping and saying their thing. So
it is basically stand up, sit down 24/7.
So here is my
question. How the heck does anything
ever get done in Heaven? :)
