啟示錄5:11-14

5:11 我又看見且聽見，寶座與活物並長老的周圍有許多天使的聲音；他們的數目有千千萬萬，

5:12 大聲說：曾被殺的羔羊是配得權柄、豐富、智慧、能力、尊貴、榮耀、頌讚的。

5:13 我又聽見在天上、地上、地底下、滄海裡，和天地間一切所有被造之物，都說：但願頌讚、尊貴、榮耀、權勢都歸給坐寶座的和羔羊，直到永永遠遠！

5:14 四活物就說：「阿們！」眾長老也俯伏敬拜。

Then I looked, and I heard around the throne and the living creatures and the elders the voice of many angels, numbering myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands,  saying with a loud voice,       

“Worthy is the Lamb who was slain,

to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might

and honor and glory and blessing!”

  And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying,       

“To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb

be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever!”

  And the four living creatures said, “Amen!” and the elders fell down and worshiped.

    在這裡看見基督如同上帝受到崇拜，除了祂本是與父同等，更因為祂所做的，因為祂順服了父上帝的旨意，為拯救世人脫離罪孽而死在十字架上。然上帝卻讓祂從死裡復活，重新獲得一切的權柄，並且被上帝高舉到與上帝同等。

    而耶穌被高舉，不僅自己被高舉，人性也被高舉。凡蒙耶穌基督拯救的人，將來也要與基督一同坐王，直到永遠！

    所以，將來上帝國的實現，是按照上帝形像被造的人，得榮的時候！
