Special Studies - Revelation Chapter 5
The Scroll And The LAMB
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.
[
Note:
Notice that the Book is in HIS right hand. Your right hand is symbolic of your work. This Book is the Bible, it’s specifically the Book of Revelation in this case. Seven means Spiritual Completeness, the total sum. The work of these seven seals will bring about the consummation of this age.
]
Revelation 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?
Revelation 5:3 And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.
Revelation 5:4 And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.
[
Note:
At this point in time that the angel spoke, the book was sealed. There was none that could remove the seals to understand what was written in the Book.
]
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.
[
Note:
JESUS overcame the devil when HE died on the CROSS.
Hebrews 2:14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;
Hebrews 2:15 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
Therefore, HE was able to remove the Seals and place the Seal of GOD into our foreheads so that we can understand these Seals that bring about the end of the age. These are the seven seals of the book of Revelation.
Luke 8:10 And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.

Revelation 5:6 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.
[
Note:
Picture JESUS, after HIS resurrection, standing in the midst of GOD’S THRONE. The four living creatures are protecting the THRONE, and the twenty four elders are around the THRONE, as well as an uncountable number of angels around them. HE has overcome the devil. HE has paid the price for us and redeemed us back to HIM. HE has seven horns (all powerful), and seven eyes (all knowing), which are the seven SPIRITS of GOD sent forth into all the earth. These are the seven angels sent to the seven churches. These are HIS SPIRITS, which make up THE HOLY SPIRIT.
]
Revelation 5:7 And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.
Revelation 5:8 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.
[
Note:
GOD treasures our prayers. These vials full of our prayers are kept with the Book.
]
Revelation 5:9 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:
JESUS died for ALL. Every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation. That means ALL who accept HIM, HE will redeem to HIMSELF.
]
Revelation 5:10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.
[
Note:
The period of time that we will reign on earth with JESUS is the one thousand years of The LORD’S Day, that we call the Millennium.
]
Revelation 5:11 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;
[
Note:
These angels are GOD’S children. It’s your parents and grandparents, and mine. It’s our brothers and sisters that have passed away in the flesh. They loved JESUS and accepted HIM. They may not have known these things that we now know, but that does not matter. The devil was not due to show up during their time in the flesh. They did not have to worry about him deceiving them into thinking he is CHRIST. I believe that the one third that rebelled against GOD are in this generation. This is the generation of the fig tree. It’s the last generation. I believe that HE wanted us in this generation as well, whether for positive, or negative, or free will.
]
Revelation 5:12 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.
[
Note:
These are the Seven Spirits Of GOD. These Spirits make up THE HOLY SPIRIT, which is GOD’S SPIRIT. The LAMB is GOD which came to redeem HIS children. These Spirits are the seven angels sent to the seven churches. If you participate in the first six, then the Blessings follow. The Seven Spirits work through GOD’S seven thousand, the election. The election is the stone with seven eyes, which is the plummet stone in the hand of Zerubbabel as he finishes building The End Time Temple Of The LORD. Watch “The End Time Temple Of The LORD”, and see the note at the end of this chapter.

Revelation 5:13 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.
Revelation 5:14 And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.
[
Note:
JESUS is worthy. And HE did it all for us. Praise ye, The LORD. And as we are conformed to CHRIST, we begin to see beyond the veil as we are given eyes to see and ears to hear.

Note:
Zechariah 4:1 And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep,
Zechariah 4:2 And said unto me, What seest thou? And I said, I have looked, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and his seven lamps thereon, and seven pipes to the seven lamps, which are upon the top thereof:
Zechariah 4:3 And two olive trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.
Zechariah 4:4 So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my lord?
Zechariah 4:5 Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.
Zechariah 4:6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.
Zechariah 4:7 Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it.
Zechariah 4:8 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
Zechariah 4:9 The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you.
Zechariah 4:10 For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro through the whole earth.
Zechariah 4:11 Then answered I, and said unto him, What are these two olive trees upon the right side of the candlestick and upon the left side thereof?
Zechariah 4:12 And I answered again, and said unto him, What be these two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden oil out of themselves?
Zechariah 4:13 And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.
Zechariah 4:14 Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.
Note:
The two Olive trees are the two anointed ones, which are the two witnesses.
The great mountain that Zerubbabel levels to a plain is the one world globalist beast system of Revelation 13:1.
The headstone that Zerubbabel brings forth shouting Grace, Grace unto it is that Great Mountain that will fill the whole earth. It’s CHRIST’S Millennial reign.
The plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven is the stone with seven eyes. This is GOD’S seven thousand, the election.
And Zerubbabel is the 144,000 of Revelation chapter seven that are Sealed during the hour of temptation.
The House that Zerubbabel will finish is The End Time Temple Of The LORD. It’s those that wash their robes in the Blood of the LAMB as shown at the end of Revelation chapter seven. These are they who come out of confusion and repent. This results in the devil’s beast system crumbling to the ground. It’s the image in king Nebuchadnezzar’s dream with the toes mixed of iron and miry clay that crumbles and blows away like chaff in the WIND.
Matthew 21:38 But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.
Matthew 21:39 And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him.
Matthew 21:40 When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen?
Matthew 21:41 They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons.
Matthew 21:42 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
Matthew 21:43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
Matthew 21:44 And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
Matthew 21:45 And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.
Matthew 21:46 But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, because they took him for a prophet.
There is a lot of knowledge in these notes at the end. I included the part of the verses regarding the vineyard in the hope that you will remember and watch “These Little Ones” parts one and two again.

This concludes Revelation chapter five. In chapter six, we will begin to cover the Seven Seals.
