I think some of you actually think eternity and heaven is going to look and be exactly like what you see on earth. We have been trained this way by our mentors.
But this "glimpse" of the things seen in heaven, cannot be brought down to our human reasoning always.
Once in a while, we must simply realize that the Lord has the power to change in appearance as we see in scripture.
Rev 1:13 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
14 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.
17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:
Rev 5:6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth
The "carnal" man cannot fathom this, so they must invent concepts to rationalize the so called, "bizarre" visions of heaven as see by John.
John would be the first one to admit what he saw was real....why cant we?
