JD: --   I see myriad's of creatures  (including human creatures) worshipping Him  (Rev. 5:9-14).   In Rev 7:9,10  I have this reading  : After these things I looked and behold, a great multitude, which no one could count  (what  ??!!!!)  from every nation and all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in which robes and palm branches were in their hands and the cry out with a loud voice, saying, "Salvation is to our God who sits on the throne and to the Lamb."   Do you understand why I disagree with the notion that salvation is for only a few.  Perhaps "the few" of which you speak  (and it is definitely there in the biblical text)   is a reference to the Poeple of Israel  --  I don't know but I will say that heaven will be chucked full of people like you and me.      JD, Jesus said “few are those who find it.”  Why do you continue to disagree with Him?  The throngs you see pictured here in Revelation are the accumulation of ALL believers over the ages (a relatively small percentage of all who ever lived), plus all the “creatures” God has made including seraphim, cherubim, etc.  Of all the people walking on the earth today, only a small (few) percentage (from every nation) will be among that throng. You are grasping at straws, by using one scripture to deny another one, to defend your rebellious theology.  Salvation is not for “a few”—it is available to everyone, but “few there will be who find it.”  Izzy  (Matt 20:16,  Matt 22:14)
