This short answer took two full Bible Studies at the calvary Bible Baptist church to give the many scripture references necessary to support the answere given hear. The cherub are supernatural celestial beings, there were five of them there are now four of them. This whirl wind is a cyclone like occurrence with lightening coming out of it and it comes out of the north the direction to the throne of God in heaven. The whirl wind is the Lords advanced scientific supernatural method of travel. The lords voice as well as his person the Lord Jesus Christ will travel through this supernatural whirl wind.
Now what you are seeing here is advanced revelation on space time travel that present day physics according to our modern scientific knowledge, hold inpossiable, that is the making of an absolute vacuum is not obtainable. Quantum theory sets limits for the best possible quality of vacuum, predicting that no volume of space can be perfectly empty.
In spite of the fact that the technology for the creation of a “perfect vacuum” is fundamentally forbidden, theoretical physicists will tell you that the creation of an absolute vacuum will allow space travel to far exceed the speed of Light! Today many experimental Physicist are embracing the possibility of developing an absolute vacuum hole seeking to bring forth a demonstration of absolute vacuum that may ultimately allow the following scientific possibilities that are currently “forbidden” by today technologies: The scriptures reveal to us that advanced space and time travel through vacuum holes is a reality that we do not yet understand! Theoretical physics now allows for the:
1. Creation of the perfectly isolated systems by enveloping an object with closed hole surface (consisting of vacuum holes). Such hole sphere able to shield even gravitation and neutrinos.
2. The absolute vacuum allows teleportation of matter at distance of 13 billion light years and, probably, time travel;
3. The absolute vacuum allows the creating the artificial gravitation.
4. The absolute vacuum may be used for destruction of the very durable materials.
This mysterious supernatural event that we see hear is very similar to Elijah's translation! What you are beholding in Ezekiel is a certain form of a chariot of the Lord, but it is a special vehicle in which he will bring his judgment on the earth!
This coming in the clouds that you see hear is the picture of tribulation Judgment and the return of the Lord in the clouds. The vision of God that Ezekiel sees hear by the river of Chebar in the captivity is the lords return at the second advent! The lord returns to reap the earth in the tribulation! This chariot or UFO is not of the Gods but of God!
Eze 1:1 ¶ Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river of Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God. And the supernatural creatures the cherub carries the Lord about! Since Satan is found to be the fifth cherub the lord beheld him as lighting falling! Their is no definitive artist conception drawn as this is the appearance of the supernatural object lifted up by the cherub! However this unidentified flying object as you will see is a inorganic object that is alive! That is what brought my attention to the science article on minerals and the statement that looking at the mineral kingdom through the lens of deep time leads to a startling conclusion: most mineral species owe their existence to life! The mineral beryl is a hexagonal crystal, beryl may be very small or range to several meters in size. Terminated crystals are relatively rare. Pure beryl is colorless, but it is frequently tinted by impurities; possible colors are green, blue, yellow, red, and white. Now it appears that what the creatures are lifting up is a threshing sled with a throne on it with the Lord sitting as he is carried about by the creatures!
The fifth cherub now after the fall represents amphibian reptile class and is now missing as he is fallen from his exalted position covering the throne. The cherub represents the bruit creation: the wild beasts, the flying beasts, the domesticated beast and man. They are connected to the throne of God. They are also connected with this unidentified flying object that we have identified and it will appear the second Advent of Jesus Christ.
This connects to the Lords appearance during the tribulation just before the battle of Armageddon where he reaps the earth! What is visualized is the living God coming to the earth in flaming fire and Judgment as prophesied through the scriptures. Some people during the tribulation will see this great light! This was representative of the Lord Jesus Christ at his first coming! And it is representative of his coming to Armageddon!
The vision is the supernatural vision of the Lord riding on a object appears to be like a flat sled that was a threshing sled. You can call it a chariot if you wish, but it is a sled with living wheels and living creatures that are supporting the lord on his throne on his threshing sled!
They the cherubim used four and six wings alternately, when they are stationary they have six wings; when they are moving they use four wings. The cherubim, as well as the Seraphim and the Angels have no blood; however, even the animals need mercy, so we find their representatives kneeling over the mercy seat where the blood is sprinkled for the sins of man.
and thanks to you all for share and discussing about this topic it's blessing for me ... GOD BLESS YOU.
