"Around the throne were 24 thrones, and seated on the thrones were 24 elders, clothed in white garments, with golden crowns on their heads." Revelation 4:4 It is believed that the 24 elders who sit around Gods throne and worship him continually are saints of some kind. They are examples of humans who have prevailed and become co-heirs along with Christ in his kingdom. The reason it is widely believed that they are saints instead of angels is that each of them are wearing golden crowns.It is promised to every believer that when we prevail in our Christ-mission for God behind enemy lines, here in the devils territory on earth, we will receive a crown of glory in heaven.
Another reason it is believed that these 24 elders are not angels is that angels though ministering spirits will never receive crowns on their heads because they are not co-heirs in Jesus' kingdom. Angels will never be given crowns on their heads like us humans. The 24 elders are also clothed in pure white garments which the bible also says we will receive when we get to heaven. Though life may be hard here behind enemy lines, fight for your blessed crown and for Gods kingdom. Fight to one day be like the 24 elders in heaven in Revelation.
