Living Creatures:

as represented by Ezekiel (Eze 1-10) and John (Rev. 4, etc.), are the cherubim. They are distinguished from angels (Rev 15:7); they join the elders in the "new song" (5:8,9); they warn of danger from divine justice (Isa 6:3-5), and deliver the commission to those who execute it (Eze 10:2,7); they associate with the elders in their sympathy with the hundred and forty-four thousand who sing the new song (Rev 14:3), and with the Church in the overthrow of her enemies (19:4).

They are supposed to represent mercy, as distinguished from justice, mercy in its various instrumentalities, and especially as connected with the throne of God, the "throne of grace."
