“God Sitting Upon His Throne”
This is a heavenly council scene. Joseph Smith and Sidney Rigdon recorded a similar experience in the vision of the degrees of glory.
“We beheld the glory of the Son, on the right hand of the Father, and received of his fulness; and saw the holy angels, and them who are sanctified before his throne, worshipping God, and the Lamb, who worship him forever and ever”
(D&C 76:20-21).
John the Revelator describes a similar experience thus:
“I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter. And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne.... And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold.”
(Revelation 4:1-4.)
