Your Heaven, Part 2

Shawn McCraney discusses his ongoing project of producing a new version of the New Testament, focusing on a verse-by-verse translation and analysis of the book of Revelation, which includes creating interpretative cover art for each chapter that captures its essence. He explores the topic of "Your Heaven" by pondering on what scriptural insights reveal about our eventual perception of heaven, particularly regarding Yeshua's position at the right hand of God, and how this is depicted in Revelation chapter 4, known as the "throne" chapter.

In Shawn's teaching, it is emphasized that in Revelation 4, the One on the throne, referred to as "the Lord God Almighty," is a significant title highlighting the unity and identity of God, reflecting both His essence as the Father and Yeshua's humanity and sacrifice through symbolism such as jasper and sardine stones. The repetitive acclamation "Holy, holy, holy" by the living creatures before the throne parallels Isaiah's vision, underscoring the timeless and unique nature of God's identity throughout scripture, recognized as "the Lord God Almighty" — a term used exclusively in Revelation and once by Paul, showcasing the culmination and revelation of God's authority and presence.

Yeshua of Nazareth, embodied as the Lord God Almighty, is fully God and fully man, occupying the throne as a singular entity encompassing the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The vision of the one on the throne represents Jesus in His resurrected body, emphasizing His role in creation and His worthiness of worship, as affirmed by the twenty-four elders in Scripture.
