4. ANGELS JOIN IN PRAISE Revelation 7:11-12 11 And all the angels were standing round about the throne, and about the elders and the four living creatures; --In: verse 11 we learn that there were many angels round about the throne. As the place of the visions has not been changed, doubtless they are the angels referred to in this paragraph. The elders and living creatures are also mentioned in both texts. and they fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God, 12 saying,--Jesus said, "there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth." (Luke 15:10.) In the words of this paragraph we have, in a symbolic picture, a demonstration of their rejoicing with the saved, which indicates the final joy when all the redeemed shall get home. Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honor, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen.--The "Amen" affirms that the things to be said are most certainly true. Being repeated at the end of the sentence adds emphasis to the assertion. God has glory, wisdom, power, and might and deserves to be thanked for his wonderful blessings; in short, all things good can be ascribed to God as their source, both by angels and men.
