>>They are not in heaven<<
Oh really?
Revelation 8:2 And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets. 3 And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.
Revelation 9:13 And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God,
I suppose in your world God is not in heaven either? Following that guy who changes scripture is not making you look intelligent.
Again, you insert your own non-scriptural placement of “under” the altar.
Your interpretation creates a vast number of contradictions in scripture, thus must be discarded as false.
