Revelation 5:1

Good Morning! God is good all the time, all the time God is good! Let us go to Revelation 5:1 "And I saw in the right hand of Him who sat on the throne a scroll written inside and on the back sealed with seven seals."

In John's day, books were written on scrolls, which are pieces of papyrus or vellum up to 30 feet long, rolled up and sealed with clay or wax. The scroll that John sees contains the full account of what God has in store for the world. The seven seals indicate the importance of its contents. The seals are located throughout the scroll so that as each one is broken, more of the scroll can be read to reveal another phase of God's plan for the end of the world. Only Christ is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll.

History lesson: Romans sealed their wills seven times-on the edge at each roll-to prevent unauthorized entry. Hebrew title deeds required a minimum of three witnesses and three separate seals, with more important transactions requiring more witnesses and seals.

Thank you for reading. Love you all.

In Christ's Love and Grace
