Series: The Revelation of Jesus Christ Behold, He is Coming
Revelation 5:1-14
Worthy is the Lamb!
As we continue our exegetical study through the book of Revelation, we come this Sunday to chapter 5. We have gone through the initial vision of the Son of Man in chapter 1, Christ’s messages to the seven churches in Asia Minor in chapters 2 & 3, as well as a wide-angle view of the throne in heaven in chapter 4. Now the camera, as it were, zooms in on the right hand of the One seated on the throne, and we observe there a scroll, sealed with seven seals. The opening of this document will bring about the final judgment and redemption of mankind. But only one Person was found worthy to open this scroll. What follows is quite possibly the greatest worship service in all of Holy Scripture.
