Seeing Heaven open Seeing what is unseen 56 “Look,” Stephen said, “I see heaven open and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God.

We “see” someone who is unseen in flames of fire from within a bush, which did not burn up. In a voice which calls us by name, “Moses! Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.” Sinai

16 On the morning of the third day there was thunder and lightning … 18 Mount Sinai was covered with smoke, because the Lord descended on it in fire. The smoke billowed up from it like smoke from a furnace. 19 Moses spoke and the voice of God answered him. (Exodus 19) Arc

17 “Make an atonement cover of pure gold 18 and make two cherubim out of hammered gold at the ends of the cover. 20 The cherubim are to have their wings spread upward, overshadowing the cover with them. The cherubim are to face each other, looking toward the cover. 21 Place the cover on top of the ark and put in the ark the tablets of the covenant law that I will give you. 22 There, above the cover between the two cherubim that are over the ark of the covenant law, I will meet with you and give you all my commands for the Israelites. (Exodus 25) Temple

He placed the cherubim inside the innermost room of the temple, with their wings spread out. The wing of one cherub touched one wall, while the wing of the other touched the other wall, and their wings touched each other in the middle of the room. (1Kings6:27) Eden

We “see” someone who is unseen So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. Summary

Seeing Heaven open Seeing what is unseen & describing it Past Descriptions: Power: a fire which does not consume Relational: Hearing the voice of God Living Creatures – Cherubim Like a human being New descriptions

4 faces: all seeing straight legs no turning Lion: Strength boldness. Ox: Diligence patience, Eagle: Speed, piercing sight, soaring high; Sprit: Wherever the spirit would go, they would go, without turning as they went Heaven+Earth

The Ground, the vault and the Throne Wheel intersecting a wheel connect the beings with the earth (in any direction, full of eyes) Their wings connect them to the vault and to the throne – the likeness of the glory of the Lord History

Heaven opens in crisis moments 1976 Patriarchs Abram, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph 1686 Egypt + Desert Moses 1405 Conquest Joshua 1000 United Kingdom David, Solomon 951 Split: Israel sins Elijah, Amos, Hosea 721 Israel falls Assyrians Judah sins Isaiah, Jeremiah 600 Deportations Babylonians, Daniel, Ezekiel 587 Judah in Exile Zechariah, Haggai Joel 538 Return from exile Cyrus, Ezra, Nehemiah Thirtieth year : It actually happened, but only 3 times in a lifetime among the exiles: it happened in community Kebar River, exile of King Jehoiachin: in bad circumstances Ez1

1 In my thirtieth year, in the fourth month on the fifth day, while I was among the exiles by the Kebar River, the heavens were opened and I saw visions of God. 2 On the fifth of the month—it was the fifth year of the exile of King Jehoiachin— 3 the word of the Lord came to Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, by the Kebar River in the land of the Babylonians. There the hand of the Lord was on him.

4 I looked, and I saw a windstorm coming out of the north—an immense cloud with flashing lightning and surrounded by brilliant light. The centre of the fire looked like glowing metal, 5 and in the fire was what looked like four living creatures. In appearance their form was human, 6 but each of them had four faces and four wings. 7 Their legs were straight; their feet were like those of a calf and gleamed like burnished bronze. 8 Under their wings on their four sides they had human hands. All four of them had faces and wings, 9 and the wings of one touched the wings of another. Each one went straight ahead; they did not turn as they moved.

10 Their faces looked like this: Each of the four had the face of a human being, and on the right side each had the face of a lion, and on the left the face of an ox; each also had the face of an eagle. 11 Such were their faces. They each had two wings spreading out upward, each wing touching that of the creature on either side; and each had two other wings covering its body. 12 Each one went straight ahead. Wherever the spirit would go, they would go, without turning as they went. 13 The appearance of the living creatures was like burning coals of fire or like torches. Fire moved back and forth among the creatures; it was bright, and lightning flashed out of it. 14 The creatures sped back and forth like flashes of lightning.

15 As I looked at the living creatures, I saw a wheel on the ground beside each creature with its four faces. 16 This was the appearance and structure of the wheels: They sparkled like topaz, and all four looked alike. Each appeared to be made like a wheel intersecting a wheel. 17 As they moved, they would go in any one of the four directions the creatures faced; the wheels did not change direction as the creatures went. 18 Their rims were high and awesome, and all four rims were full of eyes all around.

19 When the living creatures moved, the wheels beside them moved; and when the living creatures rose from the ground, the wheels also rose. 20 Wherever the spirit would go, they would go, and the wheels would rise along with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels. 21 When the creatures moved, they also moved; when the creatures stood still, they also stood still; and when the creatures rose from the ground, the wheels rose along with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.

22 Spread out above the heads of the living creatures was what looked something like a vault, sparkling like crystal, and awesome. 23 Under the vault their wings were stretched out one toward the other, and each had two wings covering its body. 24 When the creatures moved, I heard the sound of their wings, like the roar of rushing waters, like the voice of the Almighty, like the tumult of an army. When they stood still, they lowered their wings.

25 Then there came a voice from above the vault over their heads as they stood with lowered wings. 26 Above the vault over their heads was what looked like a throne of lapis lazuli, and high above on the throne was a figure like that of a man. 27 I saw that from what appeared to be his waist up he looked like glowing metal, as if full of fire, and that from there down he looked like fire; and brilliant light surrounded him. 28 Like the appearance of a rainbow in the clouds on a rainy day, so was the radiance around him. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. When I saw it, I fell facedown, and I heard the voice of one speaking. Thank God for his written Word to us
