Thoughts from Revelation 5

In the Most Holy Place (also where the Judgment [1844] and the Marriage happen), there is a sealed book. At the end of the Redemption plan, the book’s seals will be broken, and the contents revealed. In 1798, the time of the end begins, and the seals are opened. God the Father is sitting on the Throne, and He asks who is worthy to open the Book. This saddens John, who is observing all of this, because he knew that there was no one worthy enough to open the book. Jesus, however, claims His innocent blood as worthiness, and takes the book from His Father. This book is about redemption, and has to do with the heart. The heart, we know, is a transcript of character.

The book was sealed because the Last Days portion of it had not yet happened. The message of the First angel, “Fear God and give glory to Him, for the hour of His judgment is come,” (Revelation 14:7) had not yet been announced. From 1798 on, it was unsealed for the entire world to see. Since prophecy had been fulfilled, it could now be proclaimed to all. The book fulfils the first, second, and third angels’ messages. It covers the part of history from the Advent Movement (1840-1844) to the Second Coming of Christ. It talks about the marriage, the second coming, and the judgment. Everything after 1798 is covered here.

The book is written on the front and the backside. Since this book is a book of the heart, the front side stands for being written in our hearts. The back side stands for the time in which it was, not the place. This will be most clearly seen by the fact that some get light before others do. We all are in different places in our Christian walk.

Revelation chapter four speaks about an open door. This is the year 1844, when the Judgment began. The First Angel’s message was preached everywhere, but people misinterpreted it to mean that Jesus was coming back, not that the Judgment was beginning. Because we have never actually experienced these messages in actual time, we are either in front of or behind them. This would be written on the back side of this Book.

So in conclusion, our characters are very impressionable, and we need to make sure they are molded properly before the Judgment. The nearly fulfilled prophecy in Daniel 8:14 inspire the message of the three angels. They call for a heart transformation which we can choose to accept or reject. It’s our choice.
