    Rev.15.7-8 "The four beasts"

    And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever./ And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled.

    The 24 elders and four beasts are as one because they represent the body of saints of the world made to appear so this world is framed by the world of God and here faith is the one language. (Heb.11.3) The saints redeemed from among men indicates the natural world and nominal Christians are' the heathen' mentioned in Psa. 2.1. They have their 'kings and their MAGA agendas but just the same they are enemies to Christ as their BBB is to persecute His children. So where do their prayers go tto. It explains why God has kept them as memorial before the throne and on mount Sion.

    "The four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints." These elders and the beasts are the joint custodians of our prayers. The Golden vials full of our prayers explain they represent the twin aspects of our profession. They substitute for Melchizedek, the High Priest of our profession. Chapters 15-16 therefore is narrated from their POV thus we are looking heaven as the temple whereas Ch.5 set the proceedings from the throne.

    "And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever." These seven angels explains the wrath of God covering the list of martyrs from Abel to the point of time the two witnesses ascends to heaven ."And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them/ And the same hour was there a great earthquake,"(Rev.11.12-13) This earthquake marks the wrath of God taking effect and what seven angel signify what was in the will of God.
