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).
