The Bible has many incredible Revelations waiting to be discovered by the Student of the Word. One of the easiest ways to learn about said Revelations is to simply follow the instructions laid out for us in the Book of Matthew...
Matthew 6:33
"But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you."
The first thing One should do when learning the Bible is to seek the Kingdom of God. Sounds good, but where does One look to find it?
Luke 17:21
"Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you."
The answer lies Within.
Let us test this out by analyzing the Throne Room in the Book of Revelation using the Kingdom of God Within method. We will compare the Throne Room to basic Human Anatomy to see if there is a special message waiting for us.
Revelation 4:2
"And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne."
Christians are often told that God sits on the throne of their Hearts. Let us try that...
Heart = Throne of God
If the Throne represents a Heart, then what would the Slain Lamb represent?
Revelation 5:6
"And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth."
Christians should know this one by Heart. The Slain Lamb represents the Blood of Jesus. Naturally, we find Blood in the Heart. Thus...
Blood = Slain Lamb
The above verse mentions Elders. What would the Twenty-Four Elders represent?
Revelation 4:4
"And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold."
This one is easy. Our Hearts are surrounded by twenty-four Ribs. Thus...
Ribs = Twenty-Four Elders
Hearts make thundering sounds and are powered by Electricity. Is there a verse describing this? Yes...
Revelation 4:5
"And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God."
Electrical Signals and Heart Beat = Lightning and Thunderings
If we keep going, we find more and more correlations...
Breath/Lungs = Seven Spirits
Four Heart Chambers/Four Forces of Nature = Four Beasts
DNA/Genome = Book with Seven Seals
Nitrogenous Base = Lamb with Seven Eyes/Seven Horns
Etc. etc.
When we put all of the clues together, we discover that the Throne Room is a picture of a Bosom. Who's Bosom?
Luke 16:23
"And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom."
Abraham's Bosom! That is where the Saved are resting until the Marriage Supper. That is where the Thief went after he died. Abraham's Bosom is Paradise...
Luke 23:43
"And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise."
So, in conclusion, seeking the Kingdom of God Within has revealed much about the Book of Revelation and the Bible.
