Did You Know That Mermaids Are Actually Biblical? - Demons, Aliens And Mysterious Beings

The most mysterious beings in the Bible number one did you know that mermaids are actually biblical many people fail to see that the Bible shows an example of mermaids mythical creatures that have fascinated and intrigued Humanity for centuries hold a significant place in various cultures around the world but what does the Bible say about these enchanting Beings in this article we will explore the biblical meaning of mermaids through the lens of scripture and spiritual interpretation mermaids are often represented with their mesmerizing Beauty and lore is this what the word of God says mermaids are typically

represented as Temptations and distractions that can lead individuals away from their faith and towards sin however mermaids in the Bible do not appear to be friendly beings who are Friends with the children of Christ it is quite the opposite the First mermaid we see in the Bible is an evil God that opposed Jehovah called deeon the Bible describes deeon also known as Dean as one of the oldest deities in Mesopotamia with evidence dating back to 3000 BC he was represented as a half man half fish creature the god Deon was regarded as the father of

all other gods so he was Widely worshiped in what we call the cradle of civilization where farming is thought to have first started also the area some call the Fertile Crescent deon's statue resembl a giant man some depictions show him as a merman with human features above the waist and fish features below Scholars have referred to him as a fish God which is fitting considering his connection to the Philistines who live along the coast in ancient texts from the region deeon is Connected as the father of Bal another false god highlighted through later Old Testament

history deon's son Bal was worshiped in various ways across the entire land indicating that he was a widely revered deity the gods of the Old Testament were nothing more than demons masquerading as gods and all idolatry is ultimately devil worship 1 Corinthians 10:20 no I imply that what pagans sacrifice they offer to demons and not to God I do not Want you to be participants with demons deeon was similar to many other idols and that he personified natural forces that were believed to have created all things throughout history humans have always been fascinated with gods

and demons that appear to perform extraordinary Feats this Fascination is not limited to those who do not know God but is also affected those who once loved and worshiped The God Who created the Visible and invisible world the desire to seek out Gods often arises from greed Rebellion or impatience with the perceived slowness of God in bringing about supernatural change Psalm 16: 2 through 5 I say to the Lord you are my Lord apart from you I have no good thing I say of the Holy people who are in the land they are the noble

ones in whom is all my delight those who run after other gods will suffer more and more I will not pour out Libations of blood to such gods or take up their names on my lips Lord you alone are my portion and my cup you make my lot secure the boundary lines have fallen for me in Pleasant places surely I have a delightful inheritance there are two primary passages in the Old Testament that make reference to deeon the story can be found in Judges chapter 16 as a component of the Samson narrative now the Philistine

Lords gathered together To offer a great sacrifice to deeon their God and to celebrate for they said our God has given Samson our enemy into our hands when the people saw Samson they praised their God for they said our God has handed over our enemy to us the ravager of our country who has killed many of us when Nations went to war in polytheistic cultures it was also understood that their gods fought and the Old Testament confirms this in many passages with Israel and other cultures With Samson the Philistines were making a statement due to

the capture of Samson they believed deeon had beaten Jehovah Samson's God and therefore deeon was stronger than the god of Israel now when they were high in spirits they said call for Samson so that he may amuse us so they called Samson out of the prison and he entertained them they made him stand between the pillars then Samson said to the boy who held him by the hand let me feel the pillars on which the roof of The house rests so that I may lean against them now the house was full of men and women

all the Philistine Lords were there and on the flat roof were about 3,000 men and women who looked on while Samson was entertaining them then Samson called to the Lord and said oh Lord God please remember me and please strengthen me just this one time oh God and let me take Vengeance on the Philistines for my two eyes Samson took hold of the two Middle support pillars on which the house rested and braced himself against them one with his right hand and the other with his left and Samson said let me die with the Philistines

and he stretched out with all his might collapsing the support pillars and the house fell on the Lords and on all the people who were in it so the dead whom he had killed at his death were more than those whom he had killed during his life judges 16: 25-30 Samson's plead to God to help him destroy the Philistines makes sense God's assistance was not about Samson so much as proving which God was Stronger 1 Samuel 5 is where we find the next instance of deeon being dealt with the sons of Eli the priest and

the commander of Israel were Wicked religious men and despite the fact that the Ark of the Covenant went into battle with Israel against the Philistines God handed Israel a defeat as punishment the Philistines succeeded in stealing the Ark of the Covenant from its previous owners in a manner identical to that which had occurred with Samson the Philistines brought the ark into the temple of one of their city states ashdod 1 Samuel 5: 1-7 Amplified Bible then the Philistines took the Ark of God and they brought it from ezzar to ashdod they took the Ark of

God and brought it into the house of deeon and set it beside the image of God Deon their Chief Idol when the people people of ashdod got up early the next day behold deeon had fallen on his face on the ground before the Ark of the Lord so they took Deon and returned him to his place but when they got up early the next morning behold deeon had again fallen on his face on the ground before the Ark of the Lord and his head and both Palms of his hands were lying cut off on the

threshold only the trunk portion of the idol of deeon was left on Him this is the reason neither the priests of Deon nor any who enter deon's house step on the the threshold of deeon in ashdod to this day then the hand of the Lord was heavy on the people of ashdod and he caused them to be dumbfounded and struck them with tumors both ashdod and its territory when the men of ashdod saw what had happened they said the Ark of the god of Israel must not remain with us for his hand is heavy on

us and on deeon our God as a mark of Their success they displayed The Arc by placing it at the base of their massive statue of deeon deeon had beat Jehovah right it didn't last long then they sent the ark to the city of erron you guessed correctly more people developed tumers and passed away as a result the people of philistia pleaded with their officials to return the ark to Israel and their leaders complied with their request pointing out that They shouldn't be as obstinate as Pharaoh had been in Egypt they loaded the ark onto

a cart that was driven by two animals and then they set it out the oxen eventually made it back to Israel even though there was no one driving them despite the worldview of the Philistines the defeat of Israel wasn't a defeat of their God God didn't need the army of Israel to fight for him he won all on his own it seems as if God has a sense of Humor when we read the story of deeon in the Bible deeon was worshiped in temples that could be found all over Mesopotamia according to the Bible the

cities of birth Deon Gaza and ashdod were home to some of the most important temples he was worshiped by offering offerings and participating in Feasts even though he is not specifically named by name deeon plays an important role in the Book of Jonah the ninevites who were of Assyrian origin primarily honored Aon The god of fish as well as nansi a goddess associated with fish when they had a prophet approached their Gates who had lived in a fish for 3 days only to have been brought to them to tell them to repent of their ways

they were ready to listen his Temple is destroyed his image is laid prostrate before the Ark of God with his hands and face cut off demonstrating that he is power poweress to resist the god of the Israelites and his creature which is a fish complies With the will of God by swallowing and spitting out a prophet who is on his way to deon's people to tell them to repent and turn back to the true God the Bible doesn't really mention if the Israelites engaged in deon's worship however we know they dabbled with deon's Gods Beal

and ashra so we can assume that they threw a little Deon in there the seemingly innocuous can turn out to be Insidious so we must exercise Extreme Caution In the ancient times people used to worship gods associated with natural elements such as Wind Fire and Water however in today's world we Face various distractions that lead us away from spiritual values our contemporary Society is characterized by a desire for immediate gratification convenience and a dependence on technology amidst these influences it is effortless to overlook our spiritual roots and prioritize other aspects of Life over our connection

with God here are a few things that the Bible warned us to beware of money the pursuit of wealth seeking security and Status can sometimes become all consuming when money takes Center Stage IT can lead to feelings of discontent and selfishness as Jesus widely said where you invest your treasure that's where your heart will be Matthew 6:21 pleasure our society places a significant emphasis on seeking pleasure Often through activities like partying and shopping however relying solely on these Pursuits may bring only temporary satisfaction and can potentially lead to harmful behaviors the Bible reminds us that

there's a right time for every activity Ecclesiastes 3 1 power the desire for power to feel important or control others can have detrimental consequences including oppression and Corruption true strength As the Bible tells us comes from God especially when we are at our weakest second 2 Corinthians 12: 9-10 New American Standard Bible and he has said to me my grace is sufficient for you for power is perfected in weakness most gladly therefore I will rather boast about my weaknesses so that the power of Christ May dwell in me therefore I Delight in weaknesses in insults

in distresses in persecutions and difficulties in behalf of Christ for When I am weak then I am strong Pride putting too much emphasis on personal achievements or appearance can foster a false sense of superiority the Bible encourages humility before the Lord assuring that humility leads to Elevation throughout the Bible the theme of God's Supremacy emerges emphasizing the inadequacy of false gods when measured against the almighty's power in Deuteronomy 4: 35-36 a profound declaration unfolds underscoring yahweh's exclusive status as the singular true God the verses vividly recount instances where Yahweh revealed himself to through extraordinary manifestations

from his voice resonating from the Heavens to the manifestations of his great fire on Earth these experiences served as unequivocal proof that there is no deity beside Yahweh further reinforcing the Significance of exclusive Devotion to Yahweh Exodus 203 explicitly commands you shall have no other gods before me this commandment serves as a fundamental principle urging adherence to the singular worship of the one true God the gravity of this command is reiterated in Deuteronomy 6:14 where a Stern admonition is delivered against following the gods of the surrounding Nations the passage warns that Yahweh being a jealous

God demands undivided Allegiance and straying from this commitment May incur his wrath leading to potential consequences even expulsion from the promised land idolatry can be defined as the worship of Idols or excessive Devotion to or reverence for some person or thing according to Webster's Dictionary in other words an idol is anything that replaces the one true God during bible times the most common form of idolatry was the worship of images that were believed to embody Various Pagan deities some religions still practice idolatry by bowing before statues or icons despite it being forbidden in God's word

this is reflected in the first of the Ten Commandments idolatry is not only limited to the worship of statues images or false gods in modern times we have created our own Idols these include Pride self-centeredness greed gluttony and an excessive love of possessions ultimately this leads to Rebellion Against God it is no surprise that God despises it why is idol worship such a powerful Temptation the answer to this is sin we worship modern Idols because of our sinful nature resisting the glorification of Idols is a battle of the redeemed when we hear the word Idol

we usually think of statues and things reminiscent of those glorified by pagans in age scriptures however the idols of the modern world often bear no Likenesses to the artifacts used thousands of years ago in today's society many people's Ashera has been replaced by an unquenchable desire for Acceptance in the eyes of the world in the end it doesn't matter what empty pleasure we chase after or what Idol or false God we bow down to the result is the same this is because there is only one God and all other gods are false understanding contemporary Idols

can help us understand why they are a Powerful Temptation anything we place ahead of God in our lives can be an idol clearly some of the things we idolize are sinful as we vigorously pursue our Idols we often push God aside we rarely spend time with God because we spend so much on these idolatrous Pursuits we sometimes also turn to Idols seeking Solace from the hardships of life and the termoil present in our world behaviors may be used to temporarily escape a challenging situation or the Rigor of daily life we need to place our trust

in the Lord who will keep us from all harm and who has promised to supply all of our needs when we trust in him we also need to remember the words of Paul who teaches us not to be anxious about anything but rather to pray about everything so the peace of God which surpasses all understanding can guard our hearts and Minds the good things of this world are Gifts from God meant to be enjoyed with a thankful heart in submission to him and for his glory nevertheless when the gift replaces the GI or the created

replaces the Creator we have fallen into idolatry no Idol can give us Eternal hope or meaning in our lives in pursuit of Idols we will be left empty unsatisfied and eventually on the road that leads to destruction God despises idolatry completely it brings God's Wrath down on those involved idolatry Brings curses upon the people and the land Exodus 20 5 idolatry incites God's Wrath it defiles and pollutes people in the land so to answer the question why are Idols dangerous specifically God's Wrath is falling on idolatry nothing is more terrifying than the wrath of an

all powerful all righteous God and according to Paul God's Wrath is coming on idolatry God's Wrath falls on the idolator because God is jealous there are two kinds of jealous righteous and Holy jealousy and unrighteous weak and insecure jealousy what exactly is an idol and how does it appear today first and foremost in the heart covetousness which is idolatry Paul says thus idolatry today is the activity of the human heart this is not a bodily act then there's a fruit on the branch it all starts in the heart craving wanting enjoying and being Satisfied by

anything other than God this is what Paul calls covetousness a disordered love or desire Loving more than God what should be loved less than God and only for God's sake a disordered lover or desire loving more than God which should be loved less than God and only for God's sake but this disordered heart is in a state of covetousness which is an act of loving too much which should be loved less that is how idolatry appears today idolatry begins in the heart craving wanting enjoying and being Satisfied by anything more valuable than God finally what

exactly is an idol that is the issue it is the thing or person that was loved more than God desired more than God treasured more than God and enjoyed more than God it might be good grades it could be other people's approval it could be a commercial success it could be a hobby a musical group a sport or your meticulously maintained yard your own appearance could be an idol anything can happen so Paul puts it like this in Romans 1:25 they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature anything

that is created rather than the Creator Jesus who delivers us from the Wrath to come number two the orphan him in the Old Testament angels are referenced 108 times in the book of Exodus Moses also encountered Angels during the Wilderness wandering what are the ofm the term ofm in ancient Hebrew refers to Wheels but of particular Interest are the wheels of the Throne of god mentioned in ezekiel's Vision God chooses to open the heavens in front of ezekiel's temporalized the description of ezekiel's inaugural vision is one of the most difficult passages to translate in the

whole Old Testament Ezekiel first tells where he was when he saw the vision he tried to put into words something that couldn't be explained clearly he used similes to describe it comparing it to other things in order to Give an idea of what it was like Ezekiel notices a forboding dark cloud of lightning and fire approaching from the north within the cloud there are four lighted beings that shine brightly before witnessing the orphan Ezekiel Saw creatures that were later identified as cherubim after seeing the cherubim Ezekiel Saw the wheels like The Chariot Wheels the best

object for imagining what Ezekiel Saw is a gyroscope Ezekiel was describing Something that could move in any direction without needing to turn keep in mind that Ezekiel was describing the Indescribable now as I looked at the living beings behold there was one wheel on the ground beside the living beings for each of the four of them the appear an of the wheel and their workmanship was like sparkling topaz and all four of them had the same form their appearance and workmanship being as if one wheel were within another whenever they moved They moved in any

of their four directions without turning as they moved as for their rims they were high and awesome and the rims of all four of them were covered with eyes all around whenever the living beings moved the wheels moved with them and whenever the living beings Rose from the earth the wheels Rose also wherever the spirit was about to go they would go in that direction and the wheels Rose just as they did for the spirit of the living Beings was in the wheels whenever those went they went and whenever those stopped they stopped and whenever

those Rose from the earth the wheels Rose just as they did for the spirit of the living beings was in the wheels Ezekiel continued to describe the constant interaction between the wheels and the cherubim wherever the cherubim went the wheels went he reported that the spirit of God manifested in all that was happening Ezekiel was also seeing God's omniscience the multiple eyes he saw represented God's complete awareness he sees and knows everything this great book begins with a vision Ezekiel receives a revelation from God of four Angelic figures in this Vision God calls the prophet

to be his spokesmen and Watchmen to the Hebrew Exiles this vision is the first of four in the book it can be challenging to visualize what Ezekiel Saw or expressed in this passage The is of excellent knowledge and intelligence ofanim are also mentioned similarly in Ezekiel 10 Ezekiel was meant to understand that God's Chariot or Chariot Throne was on the move the image seems bizarre to the modern reader but one must remember that this is a Visionary experience and Sur realistic features May overwhelm realism number three the Behemoth imagine a fearsome 7 ton African elephant

charging towards you with its Trunk outstretched eyes dilated and massive post likee legs pounding the Earth there is nothing between you and him but flat grass and your heart is beating wildly how do you escape what do you do did you know animals far more fearsome and mighty than a afan elephants once roamed the Earth the Behemoth we see this great beast in the Book of Job it all started with a wealthy man named job residing in us with his extended family and vast flocks He is blameless and upright always striving to live a moral

life he had a very disciplined relationship with God God extols job's virtues to Satan but Satan counters that job is only righteous because God has lavished him with favor Satan dares God that if given the approval to inflict suffering job will change and curse God God allows Satan to torment job to test this bold claim yet he stops Satan from taking job's life job receives four reports in One day each notifying him he his sheep servants and 10 children have all died due to thieving Invaders or natural disasters amid his suffering job rips his clothes

and shaves his head but in his prayers he continues to praise God Satan reappears in heaven and God gives him yet another chance to prove job's worth by testing him job curses his birthday comparing life and death bre to light and darkness he wishes that he had never been born and that his birth had Been veiled by Darkness feeling that life just adds to his Agony he wonders why God assesses People based on their actions when God can quickly amend or pardon their actions job is perplexed about how a human being May fully satisfy God's

justice given that God's ways are mysterious and Beyond human comprehension job is driven to his Breaking Point by the ordeal and as a result he becomes resentful anxious and terrified he laments the Injustice that God lets evil people thrive while he and many other honest people suffer job wants to face God and protest but cannot physically find God he thinks wisdom is hidden from Humanity but resolves to pursue it by fearing God and avoiding evil in the end God decides to intervene in 36 instances job prayed to God to have a conversation with him his

wish has been granted at this point both occasions on which God communicates with job Ur in the middle of a storm there is Much humor in the way that God addresses him God reminds job that he is the creator of everything he runs through his excellent activity of creating and sustaining the world asking job whether he could match this work he finishes by asking whether job is able to judge telling him that it is impertinent for job to believe that God should explain himself to him job is made to feel very small eventually job replies

I am unworthy how can I reply to you I put my Hand over my mouth they spoke once but have no answer twice but I will say no more in the second round God doesn't talk about himself as Creator but about his creatures the discourse is full of humor once more he asks job for his thoughts on the Behemoth as though these Fantastic Beasts hold the answers to Life's significant issues job 40: 15-19 behold be chemoth which I made as well as you he eats grass like an ox Behold his strength in his waist and

his power in the muscles of his belly he hangs his tail like a cedar the tendons of his thighs are knit together his bones are tubes of bronze his limbs are like bars of iron he is the first of the ways of God let his maker bring his sword near previously the focer was more on the mystery of the animal creation however now the focus has shifted to the fear and yet the magnificence of God's Creations the identity of the Behemoth the Behemoth is one of a handful of Bible creatures that historians have argued about

for quite a while the scholarly Community is still trying to come to a consensus on many aspects of this creature but they do know two things he was enormous and had a belly button the evidence of a belly button shows that it is not an animal that lays eggs we read he eats grass like an ox his power is in his stomach Muscles God seems to take pleasure in describing the Marvel of this extraordinary creature pointing out its size appetite and behaviors along the way the picture is clear if job cannot contend with his fellow

creature how could he ever contend with the God who created the Behemoth the Hebrew word behemoth has the same form as the plural of the Hebrew noun beema meaning Beast is it possible that such a beast used to roam The Earth with people was Behemoth The Hippopotamus many people think God had in mind what we would call the hippopotamus one of the world's largest most powerful and most dangerous land creatures the hippopotamus was definitely known in biblical times particularly in Egypt the Romans reduced their population due to the harm they caused the crops even though

it's called a river horse the hippopotamus is more closely related to pigs than horses the Gaping jaws of the hippo provide a compelling picture or was Behemoth an elephant according to most Bible apologists Behemoth in Hebrew refers to a four-legged Beast which they believe to be an elephant those who favor hippopotamuses do so because job 40:23 talks about the behemoth's huge mouth drinking up the gushing Jordan River based on verse 19 it's seems that the creature described in job's story was too large for the people living During his time to defeat these descriptions cannot be

attributed to any present day animals throughout recorded history humans have hunted and killed elephants and domesticated them for various purposes such as work and warfare for thousands of years when the Book of Job described the Behemoth as the chief of the ways of God so powerful that only he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him it was no Exaggeration number four the Leviathan compared to the terrifying and unconquerable power of the Leviathan man's pride and Grandeur were nothing to write home about how much more humble this man in God's presence and

that's the point neither job nor anyone else else has the right to criticize God's work the Leviathan is a large aquatic creature of some kind the Bible describes it as a fearsome Beast with monstrous ferocity and great power the Hebrew word for Leviathan has the root meaning of coiled or Twisted Isaiah 27:1 speaks of the Leviathan Isaiah 27:1 on that day the Lord will will punish Leviathan The fleeing serpent with his Fierce and great and mighty sword even Leviathan The Twisted Serpent and he will kill the dragon who lives in the sea whatever this monster

of the sea is or was its strength and wild nature were Well known the beasts in the sea glorify God the Old Testament contains several mentions of the Leviathan according to most of these passages the Leviathan is a real creature that people knew of although they kept their distance and only knew of it by reputation rather than sight in Psalm 104: 25 to 26 God is praised as the one who created the habitat for the Leviathan in order to combat job's inflated image of himself God desired to Demonstrate to this man how small he was

in the overall scheme of things by using job as an example job 41 gives the most detail about Leviathan as an actual sea creature in that chapter God describes Leviathan emphasizing the animals size strength and viciousness Job 41: 1 to5 New American Standard Bible can you drag out Leviathan with with a fish hook and press down his tongue with a rope can You put a rope in his nose and Pierce his jaw with a hook will he make many pleas to you or will he speak to you gentle words will he make a covenant with

you will you take him as a servant forever will you play with him as a bird and tie him down for your young girls this creature was first mentioned in job 3:8 May those curse it who curse the day who are prepared to disturb Leviathan in that context job refers to How Sailors and fishermen would curse the menacing creature known as Leviathan similarly with intense emotion job cursed the day he was born usually a leviathan is considered to be a mythical sea monster or dragon that terrorizes Sailors and fishermen yet in the context of job

41 God does not seem to consider Leviathan to be mythical at all there are differing opinions regarding the description of Leviathan some suggest that it could be an ancient dinosaur Similar to a dragon that may have survived until the time of job or remained in the memory of humanity serving as an example for God to refer to on the other hand some believe that Leviathan is simply a powerful crocodile in this context the purpose of God providing job with this account of Leviathan is to demonstrate to job how helpless he is in the face of

this creature there is nothing that job can do to stop this powerful creature job Has no chance number five the cherubim the cherubim are a group of celestial beings created by God they are the first of the Angelic hierarchy to appear in the Bible immediately following Adam and Eve's Fall From Grace Genesis 3 records the events in the Garden of Eden having violated God's commandment not to partake of the tree of the knowledge of Good and Evil it would have been likely for Adam and Eve To reach out their hands and take also of the

tree of life and eat and live forever as a result they were forced to live their Earthly Paradise but what would have stopped Adam from going back to the garden and disobeying God again the answer is given in this verse Genesis 3:4 so God drove the man out and at the east of the Garden of Eden he permanently stationed the cherubim and the sword with the flashing blade which Turned round and round in every direction to protect and guard the way entrance access to the Tree of Life from those two sources in the Bible it

appears as though that cherubim's major responsibility may be to declare man's sinfulness and protect the presence of God from sinful men as much as Adam yearned to return to the Garden of Eden the Jobim reminded him that he had broken God's law the high priest of Israel would be allowed into the holy of Holies once a year to gaze upon The Mercy Seat I'm sure he must have felt on each occasion I don't belong here in the Holy presence of God for I am a sinner cherubim are real and Powerful beings however the cherubim in

the Bible were often representative of heavenly things they were integrated into the design of the Ark of the Covenant and the Tabernacle at God's command the cherubim as shown in Ezekiel 10 as Having not only wings and hands but also being full of Eyes encompassed by Wheels within Wheels however aiel also paints a gloomy tone in chapter 10 and the cherubim provides a hint the cherubim did more than protect God's Most Holy place from those who had no right to be there they also assured the high priest's right to enter the holy place with blood

as the people's mediator with God cherubim will not refuse the humblest Christian access to the throne They assure us that we can come boldly because of Christ's work on the cross the veil in the temple has been rent The Morning Star the book of Isaiah 14 introduces us to a being known as Lucifer Lucifer literally means the one who delivers light in Latin the word is translated as Dawn star in Hebrew Lucifer was depicted as a brilliant shining and wonderful deity in all languages number six Melchisedek now we discuss the only human on our list

there is no character in the Bible that is more mysterious than in the person of melchisedek when we first meet him he is living in the time of Abraham even the name itself melchisedek carries with it an air of mystery he makes a quiet entrance into the cannon of scripture who is he why is there much discussion about him he is mentioned in both the Old and New Testaments why our epic Story begins with a man called Abra Abraham the true meaning of his name many of us are unfamiliar with how names operate in Hebrew

and the Bible names in the Bible are not only descriptive they also carry Authority in them for example the name God gave to Adam meant of the Earth this described what Adam was produced from a name can sometimes relate to the nominees role in the biblical narrative as in the case of nabal a foolish man whose name means Fool names in the Bible can represent human hopes and divine Revelations or are used to illustrate prophecies so what does the name MDC mean the name mzc has a significant meaning in Hebrews 7:2 it means king of

righteousness or the king is righteous this name implies that the person with this name is just and fair in his dealings it is a fitting name for a ruler or leader who upholds Justice and righteousness in his kingdom melkisedek is used to explain the Mysteries of Jesus just as melchisedek is the king of Peace Jesus is also the king of Peace in Isaiah's prophecy about the coming Messiah he says the second piece of information about mized that can be discovered in Genesis 14 that he presented Abraham with Bread and Wine priest of the most high

God Genesis 14:8 tells us that he was a priest of God most high according to the holy scriptures there is only one God who is most high this title belongs to The God Who Abraham worshiped he alone ruled over all all gods and was the one to whom all gods were to bow to their knees the priesthood that melchisedek held came before the priesthood that Aaron and the Levites held melkisedek blesses Abraham by God most high melkisedek acknowledged in Genesis 14:20 that the most high God had given Abraham the capacity to defeat Abraham's foes the

order and mystery of mzc is used to explain Jesus the man that had No beginning and no end the interesting insight into melchisedek is that he is never given a beginning or an end this priesthood of mized was a priesthood that would continue until the end of time melchisedec in the New Testament the reference to melchisedek in the New Testament is in Hebrews this chapter draws comparisons between the priesthood of the Old Testament and the priesthood that the Lord Jesus holds now Hebrews 6: 20 where Jesus has entered as a forerunner for us having become

a high priest forever according to the order of melchisedek the tithe to malized Hebrews 7 provides us with more information about melchisedek than any another passage in the Bible the writer Narrows our Focus to a specific incident during Abraham and mdc's encounter Hebrews 7: 1-4 for this melchisedek king of Salem priest of the most high God met Abraham As he returned from the slaughter of the Kings and blessed him and Abraham gave him a tenth of all the spoil he is first of all by the translation of his name king of righteousness and then he

is also king of Salem which means king of peace without any Accord of father or mother nor ancestral line without any record of beginning of days birth nor ending of Life death but having been made like the Son of God he remains a priest without interruption and without Successor now pause and consider how great this man was to whom Abraham the patriarch gave a tenth of the spoils Abraham is considered to be the father of the Israelites the people of God held him in high regard because of his role in spite of this Abraham submitted

to malized Authority and gave him a tenth of the plunder from the battle as great as Abraham was he bowed the knee to melchisedek his Genealogy we learn in verse three that melchisedek was without a father mother or genealogy having neither beginning of days nor end of life you should also take note of the fact that melkisedek resembled the Son of God this is a very significant point to make it demonstrates to us that he is a type of an even greater priest the Lord Jesus his city the city of Peace prophetically pictured in Lord

Jesus's work that Brought us peace Abraham demonstrated his acceptance of melchisedec's priesthood by presenting the tenth of all that he had to God it is clear from verses 9 and 10 that Abraham was a type of the future levitical priesthood that is about to be established number seven the Death Angel The Death Angel we may have heard of the angel of death but what about a death angel is there a distinction between the two we see this chapter Appear in Exodus for those knowledgeable about the angel of death because the Egyptians declined to set free

the enslaved Israelites God sent several plagues upon them the worst of which was the last plague the last plague involves the angel of death Exodus 11: 1-2 then the Lord said to Moses I will bring yet one more plague on pharaoh and on Egypt after that he will let you go when he lets you go he will most certainly drive you out Of here completely speak so that all of the people of Israel may hear and tell every man to ask from his neighbor and every woman to ask from her neighbor articles of silver and

articles of gold Moses returned to the Royal Chambers for one last interview with the King Exodus 11: 4 to5 then Moses said thus says the Lord at midnight I am going out into the midst of Egypt and all the firstborn in the land The Pride hope and joy of Egypt Shall die from the first born of pharaoh who sits on his throne to the firstborn of the slave girl who is behind the hand Mill and all the firstborn of cattle as well there had been wars in the past and there would be wars in the

future Egypt had just experienced nine plagues and more national disasters were on the way but there would never be another shock wve of grief like this one as in previous disasters the Hebrew po po ation would be spared there will be an Exodus I am going to visit Egypt God said tonight I will invade every home where there is no blood on the door but There Will Be Blood on my people's doorways and they will be spared that night history was made because the people believed God's man and followed God's plan as a result the

Lord told them Pharaoh refused to comply as a result he exposed himself and his Nation to the Lord's wrath the night nobody slept Exodus 12: 29-30 now it happened at midnight that the Lord struck every firstborn in the land of Egypt from the firstborn of pharaoh who sat on his throne to the firstborn of the prisoner who was in the dungeon and all the firstborn of the cattle pharaoh got up in the night he and all his servants and all the Egyptians and there was a great Cry Of Heartache in sorrow in Egypt for there

was no house where there was not someone dead he keeps his word the destroying Angel overlooked no one who wasn't prepared not even the king the slimy Fingers of Death plagued like an awful Affliction but it didn't touch one of God's people the word of God tells us there wasn't a residence in Egypt where someone had not died think of it what a shattering night that was my mind cannot fully conceive it what a night a large crowd marched through the streets toward the Border while the muffled whales and cries of the bereaved Egyptians echoed

Through the darkness the angel of death is another name for the destroying Angel God used Angelic beings Heavenly messengers of some kind on numerous occasions to bring judgment to Sinners on Earth this being is referred to as a destroying angel in various Bible translations there is no clear biblical evidence that any one Angel was designated as a destroying angel or an angel of death the most we can say is That references to a destroying angel in the Bible B are to a Heavenly being or beings who came to destroy those under God's judgment instead of

Destroyer some translations use Angel of Death Or Death Angel in Hebrews 11:28 this being is referred to as the destroyer of the firstborn surprisingly the original Hebrew text of Exodus 12:23 makes no Mention Of An Angel Simply states that the Destroyer the spoiler or the one who causes harm will slay Egypt's firstborn Psalm 78 describes the plagues in Egypt and summarizes them as God's unleashing a band of destroying Angels the Hebrew word for Angel is used here but it does not refer to a specific Angel God also sent a destroying Angel a Heavenly messenger who

brought destruction to judge the Israelites as a result of David's sin in numbering the People from that morning until the end of time allotted the Lord sent a plague on Israel and 70,000 people died from D to basiba when the angel stretched out his hand to destroy Jerusalem the Lord relented concerning the disaster and said to the angel who was afflicting the people enough with withdraw your hand the angel of the Lord was then at the threshing floor of Aruna the jebusite when David saw the angel Striking down the people he said to the Lord

I have sinned number eight seraphim what are seraphim seraphim are Divine beings who were created by God to serve and worship these six wied Angelic creatures are constantly present at God's Throne the prophet Isaiah tells us that the seraphim are six-winged fiery Angels who surround God as he sits upon his exalted throne and who worship God continually Isaiah 6 the seraphim also Ministers to the Lord and serves as his agents of purification as demonstrated by their cleansing of Isaiah's sins before he began his prophetic Ministry the prophet Isaiah tells us that the seraphim are six-winged

fiery Angels who surround God as he sits upon his exalted throne and to worship God continually Isaiah 6 the seraphim also ministers to the Lord and serves as his agents of purification as demonstrated by their cleansing of Isaiah sins before he Begins his prophetic Ministry the term sarim appears in the Bible only in Isaiah chapter 6 Isaiah 6 is the only passage in the Bible that uses the term seraphim which means the fiery ones Isaiah describes his intense vision of God's Heavenly Court in that biblical chapter the prophet specifically saw God Seated on an exalted

Throne surrounded by flying angels known as sarim the implication is that these attendant angels are enamored with God the Seraphim appeared to be humanlike as Isaiah describes them as having faces feet hands and voices Isaiah 6: 1-2 Amplified Bible in the year that King Uzziah died I saw in a vision the Lord sitting on a throne high and exalted with the train of his Royal robe filling the most holy part of the temple above him seraphim Heavenly beings stood each one had six wings with two Wings he covered his face with two Wings he covered

his feet and With two Wings he flew these angels may appear to be burning flames the term sarap is derived from the Hebrew verb sarap which means to literally burn with fire or more specifically to destroy with fire the name may also allude to the the seraphim's function as purification agents God created seraphim as sinless creatures but they are not to be confused with God the significance of the seraphim's close proximity to God Combined with their revelatory praise cannot be overstated when the seraphim says the whole earth is full of his glory they are giving

a firsthand account of what they see from Heaven's Apex we can see from the seraphim's supernatural perspective that God's glory is infinite indescribably valuable and so powerful that it cannot be contained in a single realm his glory bursts through Heaven unfolds through the spiritual realm and overflows into The entire Earth this revealed Glory allows us to catch a sacred glimpse of a holy God to be holy means to be distinguished and revered this Thrice invocation of the word holy to describe God's sacred nature appears only twice in the Bible both times by angels to someone

transported in a vision to God's throne and if the pure and holy seraphim show such reverence in the presence of the Lord how much more should we sinful creatures approach him the Angel's Reverence for God should remind us of our own arrogance when we rush thoughtlessly and irreverently into his presence as we frequently do because we do not understand his Holiness in Revelation 4 John's vision of God's Throne was similar to that of Isiah in reverence and awe of the Holy One living creatures gathered around the throne Cried Out holy holy holy is the Lord

God Almighty the seraphim also ministered to God and serve as his agents of Purification when Isaiah noticed the Heavenly seraphim covering themselves before God to admit their unworthiness before the Lord he became aware of his own mortal sinfulness and feared for his life at that point one of the seraphim took a burning coal with tongs from the altar brought it to Isaiah and placed it on his lips the Sara assured Isaiah that his guilt is taken away and his sin atoned for as a result of this act number nine Demons demons are personal beings it

is clear that demons have the attributes of Personality both Christ and the demons themselves use the firsters pronouns I me and your when referring to one another the Demonic Spirit within the possessed man not the man himself was responsible for this demonic possession occurs when a demonic Spirit resides in a human body and Exhibits its own personality through the host body's personality fortune telling supposedly Harmless occult practices spiritism and other practices open the door to deception for believers and real demonic danger for unbelievers people frequently become involved in the occult or demonic things because something

there appears to work unfortunately it is not something at work but someone at work a demonic Spirit we can say that demons want to occupy bodies for the same reason the desecrator wants a spray can a body is a Weapon they can use to attack God demons also attack men because they despise the image of God in man so they try to Mar that image by desecrating man and making him hideous demons have the identical purpose in Christians which is to wreck the image of God but their tactics are limited in regard to Christians demonic

spirits were disarmed by Jesus's work on the cross though they can both trick Christians binding them with Unbelief demons also have personal names Jesus asked the demon what is your name Luke 8:30 Amplified Bible then Jesus asked him what is your name and he answered Legion because many demons had entered him Jesus most likely asked the name of the demon so that he could understand the full scope of the problem knowing that man was filled with many demons not just one we should note that Legion is not a name it was evasive threatening And intimidating

number three speech in communication speech demonstrates personality demons conversed with Christ and Christ spoke with the demons They begged him not to send them into the abyss the demons who inhabited this man did not want to be imprisoned in the abyss which is the bottomless pit described in Revelations 9:1 it appeared to be a place of confinement for certain demonic Spirits Demons exercised will in appealing to Christ not to cast them into the abyss but to permit them to enter the swine Christ's authority to them is essentially a demand of his will over theirs an

order they had to obey demons have intelligence demons were aware of the identity of the Lord Jesus one of them acknowledged Paul and the ministry he was leading to a slave girl the spirit also allowed her to determine Confidential information through fortune telling or divination acts 16: 16 to 17 New American Standard Bible it happened that as we were going to the place of prayer a slave woman who had a spirit of divination met us who was bringing great profit to her Masters by fortune telling she followed Paul and DUS and cried out repeatedly saying

these men are Bond Servants of the most high God who are proclaiming to you a way of Salvation demons are Spirit beings demons are disembodied Spirits they are utterly devoid of any kind of material shape whatsoever demons belong to the spirit world and their only manifestation is the problems they cause some are eviler than others the Bible speaks of grades of wickedness among Ong the demons Jesus said Jesus was driving out a demon when the demon left the word of God tells us that Though Satan had bound people Jesus revealed his authority by conquering his

evil forces freeing captives and dividing Satan's plunder number 10 Lucifer a personality referred to as Lucifer appears in Isaiah 4 Lucifer's Latin root means one who brings light while the Hebrew translation is morning star Lucifer was depicted as a radiant shining and Majestic being in any language he was a High ranking Angel Lucifer was one of the God's main angels and Michael and Gabriel in God's Heavenly hosts however at some point Lucifer made a grave error he challenged God Luke 10:8 he said to them I watched Satan fall from Heaven like a flash of lightning

as a master of slander or taale bearing he continues to seek to undermine various forms of authority that God has established in both the church and the world when Lucifer was Cast out of Heaven he did not stop his Rebellion but he continued it by setting up a kingdom of his own in opposition to God's kingdom Lucifer's heart was lifted up in Pride because of his Beauty and this was the reason that he was cast out of the Mountain of God what was Lucifer's initial motivation what was the original sin Pride the original sin was

done in heaven not on Earth it wasn't alcohol intoxication it wasn't adultery it Wasn't even lying it was a matter of Pride it is still the most lethal of all sins many churchgoers would never dream of committing adultery or getting drunk but they are readily seduced into Pride without recognizing how harmful it is Lucifer was so lovely that he got proud of himself his pride finalized the transformation from Lucifer to Satan God gave Lucifer his Power Authority Beauty and wisdom all those were gifts from God yet Lucifer's wrong attitude turned them Into instruments for his

own destruction I am shocked to realize that men and women called and equipped by God are still today making the same tragic error that Lucifer made in Isaiah 14: 12 to5 the prophet analyzes the motive behind Lucifer's Rebellion Lucifer's desire was to be on the same footing with God he imagined himself to be so intelligent beautiful and Majestic that he allegedly thought to himself I could be God according to scripture Lucifer Undermined the Loyalty of one-third of God's angels and lured them into his rebellion and fall biblical Scholars generally agree that Lucifer was in charge

of orchestrating Heaven's worship he was a musical master who continues to utilize music and enchant people to this day Lucifer had been in charge of God's sanctuary in heaven he was in charge of the religious Services he was the Cherub who guarded the location where God's presence showed itself he was in charge Of the music he was an artist he had a lot of success he then rebelled and fell Pride the battle line are drawn he was sent down from God's presence after becoming prideful of his wisdom and beauty and after devising his plotted Rebellion

against God his treacherous Angels were also cast down with him Lucifer was perhaps the wisest and most beautiful of all God's creatures but scripture says his heart was lifted up the fall of Lucifer Satan Started From Within before it led to his fall Satan's Counterattack Satan the already fallen angel the enemy of God and of man retaliated he had particular enity against man for two reasons first of all he could attack God's image in man you see man visibly represented God to the rest of creation Satan could not touch God himself but he could make

war against the very image of God within man his his Delight was to defile that image To destroy it to humiliate it and to that end he worked tirelessly the three beings at the Throne of God the most holy place in the universe number one cherubim ezekiel's prophecy tells us about The Throne of Heaven the Lord Of Glory sat on a throne above the firmament inside the temple was the Ark of the Covenant which was a copy of the true and it had a mercy seat where God's presence would appear the four living Creatures are

also found in Revelation Revelation 46-9 Amplified Bible and in front of the throne there was something like a sea or large expanse of glass like the clearest crystal in the center and around the throne were four living creatures who were full of eyes in front and behind seeing everything and knowing everything that is around them the first living creature was like a lion the second creature like a calf or Ox the third Creature had the face of a man and the fourth creature was like a flying eagle and the four living creatures each one of

them having six wings are full of eyes all over and within underneath their wings and day and night they never stop saying holy holy holy is the Lord God the almighty the omnip potent the ruler of all who was and who is is and who is to come the unchanging Eternal God whenever the living creatures give glory and honor and Thanksgiving to him Who sits on the throne to him who lives forever and ever the scriptures that describe these beings do not hint that they are figurative rather they present them as real beings rather they

are presented as real actual beings the four living creatures are Celestial beings highest and most holy order this is made abundantly clear by the proximity of these beings to the throne of God according to Ezekiel 1 it seems as though they are continually moving Around the throne Ezekiel 13-14 Amplified Bible among the living beings there was something that looked like burning coals of fire like torches moving back and forth among the living beings the fire was bright and lightning was flashing from the fire and the living beings moved rapidly back and forth like flashes of

lightning Revelation 5: 6 through 14 explains the functions of responsibility of the four living creatures they prostrate Themselves before the lamb who is Jesus Christ and offer the same reverence to him as they did to the father proof positive of the deity of Jesus Christ along with the 24 Elders they have Harps and golden vials full of incense which are the prayers of the Saints they have Harps and golden vials full of incense which are the prayers of the Saints and 24 Elders accompany them in the Old Testament harp are frequently associated with worship Harps

are also associated With prophecy Additionally the four living creatures play a role in the execution of God's justice in some fashion these beings are all exalted order of angels whose purpose is primarily worship later Ezekiel discerned that the amazing beings surrounding God were Angels called cherubim these angels have their distinct power and Glory before he was cast down Satan was one of the that guarded the Throne of God since the Ark Of the Covenant represented the presence of God among Israel Yahweh was sometimes called he who dwells between the cherubim the cherubim are a group

of celestial beings created by God they are the first of the Angelic hierarchy to appear in the Bible immediately following Adam and Eve's Fall From Grace Genesis 3 records the events in the Garden of Eden having violated God's commandment not to partake of the tree of knowledge of Good and Evil it would Have been likely for Adam and Eve to reach out their hands and take also of the tree of life and eat and live forever as a result they were forced to leave their Earthly Paradise but what would have stopped Adam from returning to

the garden and disobeying God again we don't know Adam's reaction to witnessing those glorious cherub for the first time in human history perhaps all fright and wonder all come to mind in Exodus 25 Moses was given specific Specific and detailed instructions on how to make several articles of furniture that would be used in the Tabernacle the article of the Covenant in The Mercy Seat where God promised to meet and commune with Moses were the first to be detailed what did God want to go over or on top of The Mercy Seat he chose representations of

the cherubim in Gold what an awesome site that must have been the cherubim associated with the very Presence of God from those two sources in the Bible it appears as though the cherubim's major responsibility may be to declare man's sinfulness and protect the presence of God from sinful men the cherubim are associated with God's Splendor this chapter is one of the Bible's most cryptic yet evocative passages about God's grander and involves Angelic beings they constantly glorify God but as wonderful as Angelic and Heavenly beings are they pale in Comparison to our Heavenly lamb the Lord

Of Glory before whom all powers in heaven and on Earth bowel in holy worship and breathless adoration cherubim will not refuse the humblest Christian access to the throne they assure us that we can come boldly because of Christ's work on the cross the veil in the temple has been rented number two 24 Elders who are the 24 elders within the Heavenly realm stands a Circle of 24 Elders robed in white with gold crowns sitting on Thrones surrounding the main Throne who are these figures and why are they present but who are these 24 what role

do they play in judgment and Redemption and what can their presence teach us about our place in the grand Narrative of existence Deep dive with us into the mysteries of the Book of Revelation as we seek to understand the significance of the 24 Elders their role in The Heavenly realm and the final chapters of human history Apostle John tells us about the 24 Elders John was exiled to the island of Patmos by the Roman authorities for his unyielding faith in Relentless efforts to spread the message of Jesus Christ despite his challenges he received profound Visions

from God during this trying time which led to the writing of Revelation In his writing he described himself as a fellow sufferer for Christ emphasizing the importance of preservation in faith John found himself standing in what appeared to be the very throne room of God he saw God Seated on a magnificent Throne surrounding the throne were 24 other Thrones and on each of these Thrones sat an elder these Elders were wearing white robes with golden crowns on their heads John has an encounter with 24 Elders if we could ask an angel who could interpret for

us who are the elders it would be very useful there are at least 13 views of their identity from the 24 ruling stars or judges in the Heavens to a straightforward representation of completeness and comprehensiveness the elders are always associated with the four living creatures the entire scene was one of unimaginable Splendor worship and adoration the Eld ERS along with the Four living creatures around the throne fell before God casting their crowns before him and declaring 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 Revelation 4:11 The Book of Revelation does not provide a detailed account of the 24 Elders identities nevertheless it is widely believed that they represent the church although some think they might be Angels this is not very probable the elders are seated on Thrones indicating that they reign with Christ it is proclaimed again and over again that the church rules and reigns with Christ Revelation 510 you have made them to be a kingdom of Royal subjects and Priests to our God and they will reign on the earth in addition the

Greek word that is has been translated here as Elders is never used to refer to Angels rather it is only ever used to refer to men and More specifically men of a certain age who have reached maturity and are capable of ruling the church Angels do not experience the effects of Aging hence we cannot use the term Elder to describe them although angels can be seen wearing white white is more frequently associated with Believers because it represents the righteousness of Christ ascribed to us at Salvation the elders are wearing golden Crowns which is another indication

that they are not angels angels are never given crowns and no evidence has ever been found of Angels wearing them the term that is translated here as Crown alludes to the Victor's Crown which is worn by those who have contended effectively and won the victory as Christ promised the cherubim living creatures serve as a motivation for the 24 Elders to engage worship because the cherubim worships God at all hours of The day and night the elders do as well the elders symbolically presented the prayers of the Saints on the other hand they did not act

as mediators for the people of God in 1 Timothy 2:5 the Bible informs us that there is only one God and that the only one who may mediate between God and people is Jesus Christ Elders are seen as representatives of God's people particularly in the Old Testament role in Responsibilities the 24 Elders as described in the Book of Revelation have distinct roles in responsibilities primarily centered around worship and service to God here's a breakdown of their duties worship one of the primary roles of the 24 Elders is to worship God continually they are often depicted

falling Before the Throne of God in reverence and adoration the 24 Elders fall down before him who sits on the Throne and worship Him who lives forever and ever they lay their crowns Before the Throne and say you are worthy our Lord and God to receive glory and honor and power for you created all things and by your will they were created and have their being Revelation 410- 111 the 24 Elders honor God by laying their crowns before his throne this act represents their recognition that God is worthy of all credit and honor not the

elves the importance of the 24 Elders The Eternal and Majestic nature of God's Throne Room the 24 Elders are found in the throne room of God which is an exalted and a inspiring place they are mentioned only in the context of worship and reverence their presence is a testimony to God's domain's Grandeur and eternal nature number three ofanim why is it important for Christians to know about the supernatural realm Ephesians 61-12 put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the Ws of the devil for we do not wrestle

against flesh and blood but against principalities against Powers against the rulers of the darkness of this age against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the Heavenly places in Ephesians 6:12 we're told that our struggle is not against flesh God desires Believers to be aware of the world beyond what our temporal eyes can see so that we in the Lord's Mighty power can be prepared to take on whatever scheme the enemy has in store Ezekiel LED out of vision and God's constantly provided him with unusual visions that drove him to speak in unusual ways from hands and

Scrolls descending from Heaven to four Abominations committed in the temple to Vines Eagles Lions dry bones and fires Ezekiel trafficked in strange but memorable pictures with this we learn a lot about God's Throne God's Throne is a place of power and authority in 2 Chronicles 18:18 the prophet Mika relates his vision of God's throne room where Spirit beings attend two Chronicles 1818 then Mika said therefore hear the word of the Lord I I saw the Lord sitting on his throne and all the host of Heaven standing on his right hand and his left God's Throne

is a place of majesty And honor the Bible says that When Jesus ascended to Heaven he sat down at the right hand of the Throne of God Hebrews 12:2 there is no higher place than Heaven God is the king of heaven and Jesus holds the place of honor at God's right hand God's Throne is a place of perfect Justice he has prepared his throne for judgment Psalm 97 the final judgment described in Revelation 20 is held before a great white Throne Revelation 2011 then I saw a great white throne and him who sat on it

from whose face the Earth and Heaven fled away and there was found no place for them God's Throne is a place of sovereignty and Holiness god reigns over the Nations God is Seated on his holy Throne Psalm 478 he does whatever he pleases and all he does is good God's Throne is a place Of Praise John envisions a scene in heaven where a new song is sung to the one on the throne Revelation 14:3 they sang as it were a new song Before the Throne before for the four living creatures and the elders and no

one could learn that song except the 144,000 who were redeemed from the Earth around the throne the praise of God is surely glorious Psalm 662 God's Throne is a place of Purity only the redeemed those who have been Granted the righteousness of Christ will have the right to stand before his throne Revelation 145 Revelation 145 New King James Version and in their mouth was found no deceit for they are without fault Before the Throne of God God's Throne is a place of eternal life God is the source of life in heaven John sees the river

of the Water of Life as clear as Crystal flowing from the Throne of God and of the Lamb Revelation 22:1 God's Throne is a place of Grace not only does the Throne of God represent judgment for the unbeliever but it also represents mercy and Grace for his children let us then approach God's throne of grace with confidence so that we may receive mercy and find Grace to help us in our time of need Hebrews 4:16 one day all creation will bow to the Majesty of God's Throne Philippians 29 through 11 New King James Version therefore

God also has hi highly exalted him and given him the name which is above every name that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow of those in heaven and of those on Earth and of those under the Earth and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father the Regal beings surrounding the Throne of God will lay their crowns Before the Throne and say you are worthy our Lord and God to receive Glory and Honor and Power
