Rev. 4:5, 5:6-7a "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...And I beheld, and lo, in the midst of the throne...stood a Lamb as it had been slain.  And he took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne..."

Now we are going to find out what is in the book that is sealed with seven seals.

Before this,  John tells us that there was great lamenting because no one was worthy to open the book until the Lamb took it.  John says,  "I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book..."  Rev. 5: 4   But then, the Lamb appears, "And they sang a new song, saying you are worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for you were slain, and have redeemed us to God by your blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation..." Rev. 5:9

The purpose of redemption is to restore our relationship with God.  And Jesus is the only one, the only way to do it.  He alone restored our relationship with God.  He wiped away our sin.  When people tell you there are many paths to God, just know, they are wrong.  God accepts the blood of Christ and Him only as payment for sin.  "He is the way, the truth, and the life.  No man comes to the Father but by him." John 14:6

John then tells us why Jesus is worthy.  Rev. 5:11a-12 "And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne....saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing."  He repeats those qualifications in 7:12.  There are seven of them.

Now, we are going to break the seals and see what is in the book.  And, of course, there are seven seals.   Let's start breaking them............
