Summary

"Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne" declares the psalmist (89:14). The writer of 1 Timothy 6 reminds finite men that the brightness of His seated glory makes it very difficult for such mortals to dare approach His Majesty's universal throne of grace. Isaiah the prophet was commissioned inside this radiant throne room. He described the experience as fearful to behold for both mortals and immortals. Isaiah was overwhelmed with his own personal impurity and asked for angelic help to burn his lips, cleansing them from their impurities with a hot coal (6:6-7). The same Seraphim (who also required tongs to touch such a hot coal) are also described by Isaiah as needing to shield their own faces with two of their six wings (6:2) so as to dim the inexplicable radiance of Father God seated upon it. Despite all the splendor and trembling properly caused within His thundering throne room, the writer of Hebrews tells every Christian that he should boldly enter this place to obtain mercy and grace in a time of need. What is one to do who has read all these things about such a spectacle as the throne room of God Almighty? The moderns can often be heard suggesting that a believer need merely kick open the doors and waltz in with confidence, but do they tell a half-truth? If they do, then Pastor Gordon gives the whole in this exciting message. Do you fear God? Do you need to obtain mercy? Do you need to find grace? Do you have a time of need? Then you need this sermon in your heart and mind.
