Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on Revelation 4:2-5

2At once I was in the Spirit, and I saw a throne standing in heaven, with someone seated on it.
3The One seated there looked like jasper and carnelian, and a rainbow that gleamed like an emerald encircled the throne.
4Surrounding the throne were twenty-four other thrones, and on these thrones sat twenty-four elders dressed in white, with golden crowns on their heads.
5From the throne came flashes of lightning, and rumblings, and peals of thunder. Before the throne burned seven torches of fire. These are the seven Spirits of God.
