Throne
Wilson's Dictionary of Bible Types
or Psalm 94:20 (a) No doubt this refers to the power of evil purposes and desires, as well as the tragic influence of it.
Isaiah 14:9 (a) This seems to teach that in hell thrones are erected for evil and wicked monarchs who have fallen, and who in mockery are given a place on a throne in hell among the people he cursed. It would be a terrible punishment to have such a position and under such conditions.
Isaiah 22:23 (a) CHRIST is the throne, the power, the authority for the universe. GOD has made Him so. Christians are glad to have Him as their Lord, and the unsaved will be forced to bow the knee to Him.
Jeremiah 17:12 (a) We may understand that this represents GOD's great purposes and plans for men. He has the knowledge and wisdom necessary to make such plans, and He has the power to execute them.
Colossians 1:16 (a) These probably represent places and positions of power among men, as well as among demons. CHRIST JESUS has power to control every force and every kind of authority. He is Lord of lords, and King of kings.
Hebrews 4:16 (a) Grace does rule and reign in the heart of GOD, and the lives of His people. There is power in that grace, power to forgive and forget, power to overcome temptation and to be conquerors in the Name of the Lord.
