Revelation Chapter 5
IN THIS LESSON
The 24 elders are holding two things in their hands: 1) a harp and 2) a golden bowl of incense. Why? These breathtaking songs of praise to God and the Slain Lamb represent one of the most dramatic scenes in the entire Bible, and they remain relevant to our daily and weekly worship and prayer life.
