In Revelation 5, Jesus takes a scroll from GOD's hand and removes it's seals (Jesus is the only one who can open the scroll) this begins a series of events that end Satan's rule on this earth and it ends with the GOD's Kingdom coming and GOD's will being done on earth as it is in Heaven. does anyone know who wrote the scrolll or when it was written or why?
Rev 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.
Rev 5:2 And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?
Rev 5:3 And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.
Rev 5:4 And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.
Rev 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.
The Bible says that Jesus is the beginning of creation, God manifest in flesh, the man Christ Jesus, and the firstborn among the creatures.
For God already had the plan to come in the future in flesh before He started creation, and God calls things that have not happened yet, as though they already happened, for if it is a plan of God to happen in the future it is the same as if it happened in the beginning, for it will surely come to pass with no hindrance.
Which the Lamb was slain from the foundation of the world, and the prophets blood shed from the foundation of the world, and all the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
Which John 1:1, 3, is translated like this.
In the beginning was the plan of God to come in the future in flesh, and that plan was with God before He laid down the foundation of the world, and that plan was God manifest in the flesh.
All things were created with the plan of God to come in the future in flesh, and without that plan God would of never created anything that He created, for Jesus is the reason creation is successful, eternal life, and to judge the angels and people.
Adam sinned, and by one man all are sinners in need in salvation, and by one man, the man Christ Jesus all are saved who accept the truth.
John wept for there was no man worthy to open the book, which means worthy to be able to give eternal life to people, and open heaven up to them to be able to dwell with God, and be reconciled unto Him.
But the angel told John do not weep for Jesus is worthy to open the book, give eternal life to people.
So the book is written by God, and was a plan of God to provide salvation before He started creation, and Jesus is the only one worthy to open the book, and read it, for He is the only one that can provide salvation.
So although the book is written by God, and nobody is worthy to open it, and read it, and look upon it, it mainly means that Jesus is the only one that can provide salvation.
But we know of what of salvation so we would know of what that book would be about, for that is what it is about salvation, the book being opened representing salvation.
But nobody would not know of salvation, and could not of had it if Jesus did not relate that to us, and provide it for us.
But it is the first plan God had before He created anything, so that salvation was sure to come, and God would not change His mind about it, and could not change His mind about concerning His nature that does not change.
God is not like us for He is holy, and cannot change His mind once He promises something that he declares is iron clad, for His nature would not allow it, like we can change our mind about a promise being in the flesh.
The book was already established before God laid down the foundation of the world, for salvation was already a plan of God to give mankind before He laid down the foundation of the world.
It was all made for people starting with the man Christ Jesus, and the saints will have a higher position in heaven than that of the angels, for they will have glorified bodies, and the angels are ministering spirits, and assist the saints in salvation, and last in the authority structure of God, and the angels desire to look in to the salvation of the saints.
