Conclusion When we worship God in our assembly, we are worshipping the same God of this text. Our worship is to be reverential. With this peak into the Throne Room we see the Majesty of the Almighty, and His Son. You can acknowledge the Lamb of God now, or you can acknowledge the Lamb of God later! (cf. Romans 14:10-12)
