Revelation 5:1 And I saw in the right hand of him
that sat on the throne a book written within and on the
backside, sealed with seven seals.
-
Notice, ''Him that sat on the
throne'' is God, not Christ
-
The ''book'', which is the truth,
is in His hand But it is sealed.
-
Ezekiel 2:9 And when I looked, behold,
an hand was sent unto me; and, lo, a roll of a book was therein;
-
Ezekiel 2:10 And He spread it before
me and it was written within and without and there was written
therein lamentations and warnings and woe''.
-
Now, ''within and without'' means
it was abundantly complete and contained all truths and all facts.
-
Ezekiel 3:1 Moreover He said unto me
Son of man eat that thou findest; eat this roll and go speak unto
the house of Israel.
-
Ezekiel 3:2 So I opened my mouth, and
he caused me to eat that roll.
Ezekiel 3:3 And he said unto me, Son
of man, cause thy belly to eat, and fill thy bowels with this roll
that I give thee. Then did I eat it; and it was in my mouth as honey
for sweetness.
-
In a way we find that this is the
way the Identity message is a first.
-
When we partake of it, it is bitter
to the stomach.
-
It changes a lot of things we have
already been taught by the churches we have attended.
-
However, when we finally understand
it, it becomes sweetness to us to understand the full plan of God
and the salvation He has for all mankind.
-
Ezekiel 3:13 I heard also the noise of
the wings of the living creatures that touched one another, and the
noise of the wheels over against them, and a noise of a great
rushing.
-
You will see the same four
creatures mentioned in Revelation 4:6
-
Revelation 4:6 And before the
throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst
of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of
eyes before and behind.
-
And again in this chapter, how the
''book'' relates to the book of Revelation.
-
What is in this ''book'' we are
reading about?
-
The
''book'' pertains to the tree of life, Which is Jesus Christ.
-
It is through Him that we receive
eternity.
-
If we understand the ''book'' we
understand the plan of God.
-
Sealed = having been sealed up
2 And I saw a strong
angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the
book, and to loose the seals thereof?
-
I saw a strong angel proclaiming
with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the
seals thereof?
-
Jesus, is the only One without
blemish
-
Strong = mighty
-
Loud = great
3 And no man in
heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open
the book, neither to look thereon.
-
No man = no on
-
Heaven = the heaven
-
Revelation 3:12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the
temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon
him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is
new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I
will write upon him my new name.
-
You know the seals and know God's Plans
-
No one was worthy to open the
''book''. But Jesus, the only One without blemish
4 And I wept much,
because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book,
neither to look thereon.
5 And one of the elders saith
unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the
Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the
seven seals thereof.
-
These descriptions refer to Jesus
Christ.
-
He has prevailed.
-
John was seeing the last day
-
When the trump is sounded. Christ
has already been crucified
-
Tribe = same as "kindred"
-
Prevailed = at Calvary = same word as "overcome"
-
Revelation 4:4 And round about the throne were
four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty
elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their
heads crowns of gold.
5 And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and
voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the
throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.
6 And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal:
and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were
four beasts full of eyes before and behind.
7 And the first beast was like a lion, and the
second beast like a calf, and the third beast had a
face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle.
8 And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they
were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying,
Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to
come.
9 And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to him that
sat on the throne, who liveth for ever and ever,
10 The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the
throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast
their crowns before the throne, saying,
11 Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power:
for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and
were created.
-
These descriptions refer to Jesus
Christ. He has prevailed.
-
John was seeing the last day
-
When the trump is sounded. Christ
has already been crucified
-
Tribe = same as "kindred"
-
Prevailed = at Calvary = same word as "overcome"
-
As the next verse proves
6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the
midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of
the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven
horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent
forth into all the earth.
-
This shows the crucifixion had
already taken place.
-
These are the same seven spirits
that were sent unto the churches.
-
The seven spirits are all linked
together by the Holy Spirit.
-
If Jesus Christ is the only one.
-
Who has the authority and power to break the seals and look into the
book?
-
How can
we look into the book?
-
Because Christ is in us.
-
The Kenites can not see this.
Because they reject Christ.
-
Zech 4 Seven Eyes are God's Seven Thousands
Very Elect
-
These are the eyes that can see with understanding.
-
They study with
understanding, they are hungry for God's words not man words.
-
Horns = indicating His power
-
2 Samuel 22:3 The God of my Rock; in him will I trust: He is
my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my
refuge, my saviour; thou savest me from violence.
4 I will call on the Lord, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I
be saved from mine enemies.
-
Beasts = the zoa (Rev 4:6)
-
Lamb = little Lamp = Feed my lambs
-
Stood = Lamb = a lamb standing
-
John 21:15 So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter,
Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto
him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him,
Feed my lambs.
7 And he came and took the book
out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.
8
And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and
twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of
them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the
prayers of saints.
-
Psalms 148:14 He also exalteth the horn
of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of
Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye the LORD.
-
Odours
= incense = represents The prayers of
the saints.
-
Even of the children of Israel, a people near unto Him.
-
Vials = bowls
-
Are = symbolize
9 And they sung a new song, saying,
Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof:
for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood
out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
-
Note it says a New song.
-
Psalms 149:1 Praise ye the LORD. Sing
unto the LORD a new song, and his praise in the congregation of
saints.
2 Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the
children of Zion be joyful in their King. 3 Let them praise his
name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel
and harp. 4 For the LORD taketh pleasure in his people: he will
beautify the meek with salvation. 5 Let the saints be joyful in
glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds. 6 Let the high
praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their
hand; 7 To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments
upon the people; 8 To bind their kings with chains, and their
nobles with fetters of iron; 9 To execute upon them the judgment
written: this honour have all his saints. Praise ye the LORD.
-
New = Matthew 9:17 Neither do men put new wine into old bottles:
else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles
perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are
preserved.
-
Hast redeemed = didst purchase
-
Redeemed = Greek wood = agorazo. Always "buy", except here and
(redeem).
-
Revelation 14:3 And they sung as it were a new song before the
throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could
learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which
were redeemed from the earth.
-
Us = "them"
-
Revelation 5:10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and
we shall reign on the earth.
-
Revelation 20:6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in
the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power,
but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign
with him a thousand years.
-
Kindred = tribe
-
Revelation 5:5 And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not:
behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath
prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.

and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.

They Reign with Christ - on the earth = This is the Millennium
-
Revelation 20:6 Blessed and holy is he
that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death
hath no power, but
they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and
shall reign with him a thousand years.
-
This is the time of teaching, all will know God's laws and His word
-
Hast made = madest
-
Unto = to or for
-
King = a kingdom
-
Priests = a priestly kingdom
-
Hebrew 12:28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved,
let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with
reverence and godly fear:
-
We = they
11 And I
beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the
throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was
ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;
-
Ten thousand = myriads
-
Daniel 7:10 A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him:
thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten
thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were
opened.
-
Daniel 7:10 tells of
these same thousands upon thousands that are before the throne.
-
There are a few that he is going to
collect right now.
-
The rest will have to wait for the
''short season'' the Bible mentions
-
Until the end of the millennium
12 Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was
slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength,
and honour, and glory, and blessing.
-
Loud = great

God

It's a thunder order

When God speaks it's thunder
-
Psalms 29:1 Give unto the LORD,
O ye mighty, give unto the LORD glory and strength.
2 Give unto
the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty
of holiness. 3 The voice of the LORD is upon the waters: the
God
of glory thundereth: the LORD is upon many waters. 4 The voice of
the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty. 5
The voice of the LORD breaketh the cedars; yea, the LORD breaketh
the cedars of Lebanon. 6 He maketh them also to skip like a calf;
Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn. 7 The voice of the LORD
divideth the flames of fire.
-
Divideth = Control
8 The voice
of the LORD shaketh the wilderness; the LORD shaketh the wilderness
of Kadesh. 9 The voice of the LORD maketh the hinds to calve, and
discovereth the forests: and in his temple doth every one speak of
his glory. 10 The LORD sitteth upon the flood; yea, the LORD sitteth King for ever. 11 The LORD will give strength unto his
people; the LORD will bless his people with peace.
-
Kadesh = Holy
-
The LORD will give strength unto
his people
-
The LORD will bless his people with
peace
13 And every
creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the
earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them,
heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be
unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for
ever and ever.
14 And the four beasts said, Amen. And the
four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth
for ever and ever.
-
A quick recap of the chapter would
show that the sealed book is the truth that you know.
-
It is the very thing you are holding
in your hands, the Holy Word of God.
-
It is what will come to pass in our
lifetime
-
We are in the last generation
