Revelation 7:10
DailyBibleStudy.Org
10 And [kai] cried [krazo] with a loud [megas] voice, [phone] saying, [lego] Salvation [soteria] to our [hemon] God [theos] which [ho] sitteth [kathemai] upon [epi] the throne, [thronos] and [kai] unto the Lamb. [arnion] KJV-Interlinear
10 and they cry out with a loud voice, saying, "Salvation to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb." NASB
God and the Lamb both identified as specific persons, are here identified as one and the same person.
Just as you might toast the host at a party, saying several descriptive things, all referring to the host, so too, here the toast is of salvation, and it is ascribed to one person, namely God, the Lamb, the Son, and as we all have come to know Him, Jesus Christ.
And this is the cheer and the praise, all belonging to one person, the unique person of the universe, both God and man in one person, simultaneously.
As it has been repeated over and over, again and again, Deu. 6:4, ‘The Lord is God, the Lord is unique.’
Salvation belongs to God, and to God alone. There is no other source, no other alternate, no other alternative, to the one and only salvation presented in the Bible.
No other religion, no other belief system, no other philosophy, nothing else can replace or better, that which comes from God, Jesus Christ.
And when all of these people get to heaven, they (we), will all sing the same song of praise, and acknowledge that there is but one truth, one Lord, one salvation, and that is Christ.
Leaving behind the turmoil of the world will be a blessing, regardless of what pain and suffering many must endure before they are removed from the world.
And even though there are many opinions and beliefs, even within the Christian faith on this earth, all of those differences will fade away, and all will come to know the one and perfect truth regarding life and reality, in heaven.
Now in heaven there exists five groups – God, angels, elders, others mentioned previously, and those in white robes. Can you identify the last three groups?
