WE ARE THE SEALED BOOK
The 24 elders and 4 beasts thanked the lamb for
redeeming them to God by His blood. And due to
that redemption, they were to return to their
former and rightful position of dominion as Adam's
children should have enjoyed. Kings and priests.
As Adam was thrust out of the Garden and lost his
dominion of kingship to become a gardener, Ruth
was likewise left to glean the fields to survive.
However, Boaz redeemed her deceased husband's name.
And Jesus Christ redeemed Adam's name and dominion.
Mankind's children would once again rule!
So the title deed, or the evidence in the form of
the seven sealed scroll represents us! We are redeemed!
That title deed represented the property which was
bought back. Since we were bought back, we know that
the seven-sealed scroll must represent us!
The 24 elders and cherubims are the scroll. They were
redeemed. All creation was bought back! And mankind
was once again its head! Jesus Christ was the last man
Adam! The Son of God.
In Revelation 10, we see a mighty angel descend and
stand on the land and sea holding the opened title
deed in His hand! The scroll was totally unsealed
between the time He first took it and the time He
descended to stand on the possession. This is a picture
of Christ having "unsealed" us and opened us. (More
about this later.) The "evidence" was opened by the
Lord. We are the redeemed! He redeemed us from sin.
Since sin brought death, He could only redeem us
by paying death (Ro. 5:12).
