Four Beasts?

[larry2]

Four beasts? Oh my.

Do we really want to be a part of that? Well Ezekiel saw them as a bit different, and called them Living Creatures.
Eze 1:5  Also out of the midst thereof came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance; they had the likeness of a man.
And Wow, Eze 1:14  And the living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning.

Rev 4:6 tells us that they are in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne. What a place of prominence with our Lord, and why do you suppose that is?

Next I want to bring attention to Jesus even using them in the judgment to come according to Rev 6:1  And I saw when the Lamb (I think this Lamb is Jesus  ) opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying (They speak also), Come and see.

Rev 5:10  And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on (over?) the earth (from heaven?). Joint heirs? Rom 8:17.
Did Jesus actuall reveal the following scripture to Paul? 2Ti 2:12  If we suffer (endure), we shall also reign with him . . .

They're called living creatures or living onesNOT beasts.

"the we shall reign on earth" is also the prayers of the saints (on earth).

All redeemed by Jesus' blood: in heaven, on earth, and under the earth beings.

All worship God and the Lamb.
