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. And I saw a strong angel
proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open
the book, and to loose the seals thereof? (Revelations
5:1–2)
A strong angel? Michael or Gabriel comes to mind. Since
the scrolls are a message for mankind and Gabriel is the chief messenger angel, he would be my choice.
What John saw here was a scroll rolled up with seven
consecutive seals. You had to break the first seal and read it 58 |
before you could get to the second. Then break the second
before you could get to the third and so on.
This scroll was written at the foundation of the earth. It is a nexus in time that mankind would have to pass through to
get to the next stage of human evolution. Without the scroll, we couldn’t advance.
Let me explain. A nexus is an intersection in time and
space. No matter what route travelled, you will end up at this intersection. Let me give you an example of this. If a thousand ships were to sail across the Atlantic and their destination was the Pacific, sooner or later, they would have to enter through the Panama Canal. Or they would have to travel a very large
distance and go south under South America. But for this
illustration’s sake, let’s use the Panama Canal.
Now the thousand ships leave from many ports in Europe
and head west. All taking differing routes, some take the
southern route, some the northern, some the central route,
but sooner or later, they will all end up in the same place, the Canal. The Panama Canal is the nexus between the Atlantic
and Pacific oceans.
The seven sealed scroll is the nexus for mankind to leave
from our current age to the future golden age that awaits us.
It will be very painful but definitely worth it when the end results happen. Jesus described it in the Olivet discourse in Matthew 24 by calling it birth pains before a mother gives
birth to her child. The pains are intense, but when the child is born, the pain is forgotten.

And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under
the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look
thereon. And I wept much, because no man was found
worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look
thereon. (Revelations 5:3–4)
Staying with our illustration, none of the ships were able
to pass through the Panama Canal to cross and get to the
Pacific Ocean. All fell short; no one was there to navigate the ships through.
And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not:
behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of
David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose
the seven seals thereof. (Revelations 5:5)
Great news! Jesus has overcome the world and prevailed
to break the seals and open the scroll. The Lion of the tribe of Judah, the root of David, is symbolic of the royal bloodline of the greatest king in Israeli history. In both Joseph’s and Mary’s bloodline, as illustrated in the gospels, we find Jesus to be in that lineage. The Messiah had to be someone in that bloodline. When the Messiah returns, it will be someone
from the same bloodline again. The lion being the symbol
of royalty.
God, the Father or the Source, had to create God the son
or the body, in order to have a spotless sacrificial lamb so that the spirit of that lamb could be poured out to the whole 60 |
world in God, the Holy Spirit. This was the whole reason for the birth of Jesus, the event of all time. Not only could the Holy Spirit now be accessed to anyone who believed, but in
order for someone to be able to open the scroll, they had to be spotless and achieve the highest state of consciousness which was achieved by the man called Jesus from Nazareth.
Staying with our illustration, Jesus crossed the Atlantic
and purchased a visa to cross the Panama Canal so we could
all enter the Pacific Ocean. This visa was purchased in blood at the cross of Calvary. He navigated the canal and showed us all the way so that we could all cross. Before he came along, no one knew the way; now he has given each and every one of
us a visa to cross the canal and enter the Pacific.
All of us now have a way to enter the kingdom of heaven.
He showed us how to do it in the gospels written about him.
This is what he meant when he told his apostles, “Why do
you marvel at these miracles, these things and more shall you also do.” We are all capable of achieving this high level of consciousness, he showed us.
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. And he came and took the
book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the
throne. (Revelations 5:6–7)
| 61
Jesus, the son, taking the book from Jesus, the father. This is the greatest event in human history; without it, we’d all be lost with no direction. Purchasing the right to open the scroll in blood.
People have asked throughout history why Jesus had to
die. It’s simple, the first reason is so that the Holy Spirit could be poured out onto humanity. The second reason is so that
this scroll which will lift mankind into a new age could be
opened. We were all held into bondage until this event. The
enemy was the Lord of this world until a Friday afternoon in Jerusalem a long time ago.
This book of Revelations is packed with symbolism. One
symbol after another here is presented. We have a lamb with
seven horns and seven eyes. This is not to be taken literally, after all, have you ever seen a seven-eyed lamb with seven
horns? The lamb represents the sacrifice that God gave to
humanity, which is himself. The Jews would sacrifice a lamb
on the Day of Atonement for forgiveness. The lamb had to be
spotless without any imperfections. Thus, Jesus was a spotless sacrifice without sin or as the word I’d rather use, error.
Horns are represented as the symbol of power. The number
7 represents total or completeness. Therefore, seven horns
represent total or complete power. The seven eyes represent
all seeing and knowing. So we have a sacrifice here that is all powerful and all knowing. Nothing else would suffice to open the scroll.

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. 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;
And hast made us unto our God kings and priests:
and we shall reign on the earth. (Revelations 5:8–10)
Redemption is the theme here. Before the event which
happened at Calvary, humans were in bondage to demonic
forces. Concentrated beings of negative energy using mind
manipulation, advanced technology, dream sequencing,
deception, and all sorts of negativity to affect humanity to keep us from evolving into our true selves. Their sole mission being to destroy mankind and keeping the world for themselves.
Negative demonic forces have ruled this planet for a long
time. It was never the Lord’s intention for us to be at war
with each other, murder, steal, covet, commit adultery, and
accuse each other falsely and so on.
We are the children of the Creator, made in the image
and likeness of God. Jesus showed us what every one of us is capable of if we live in our highest estate. The Father wishes all his children to be fulfilled in power and glory.
I believe as a parent that we all wish our children to reach their utmost potential. It’s the same with the Creator and its
| 63
creation. In the beginning was the Soul or the Source, and
this spread to the spirit and mind and developed into the
body. We are all created in the same way. There is the soul in each of us, and if we tap into that potential, we can all truly become sons and daughters of the living God.
This was hijacked by the enemy in the beginning and now
the time for redemption is at hand.
Pride and jealousy are the enemy’s biggest liabilities.
They refused to bow down to the Creator’s children, which
was one of the reasons they were cast out of heaven. They
first tried to sabotage this creation by hybriding themselves with humanity, creating the Nephilim, but then along came
the flood. Next they have successfully so far denied us our
birthright through mind control. Tempting us with the flesh
rather than seeking the spirit which is our true home.
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; 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. (Revelations
5:11–12)
Ten thousand times ten thousand is one hundred million.
I’m not sure if this is a literal number or if it could be replaced by the term “great multitude.” This is the entire multitude of 64 |
angels who haven’t rebelled who are worshipping Jesus. Two-
thirds of all the angels created stayed loyal and faithful to the Creator. The number is a finite number, but it is in the millions. If one hundred million stayed faithful that means
fifty million didn’t. That is an enormous number to have as
our enemy.
The rebellious or fallen angels who followed Lucifer have
a very tough time worshipping Jesus, let alone when he was
in human form, and therefore refused. One-third of all the
angelic realm refused to bow down to Jesus and took up the
rebellion. Lucifer felt that he should be the chosen one in the flesh instead of Jesus and vowed revenge—we will get into
that later in this book. For now, just imagine this is a battle between Jesus and Lucifer for the soul of humanity.
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. And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four
and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that
liveth for ever and ever. (Revelations 5:13–14)
Nature in all its glory bowing down to the Creator of
nature. Giving thanks to the one living God which gave all
things life. Amen.
| 65
It bothers me that I’ve no idea who the twenty-four elders
are. I’ve read guesses that twelve of them are from the Old
Testament and twelve from the new. I’ll make a guess at their identity in a little while. The angels I’ve conversed with are silent as to their identity.
