John sees a scroll in heaven in the right hand of the one sitting on the throne. This scroll was sealed with 7-seals. No one was worthy to take the scroll. This truth crushed John as he thought that some man should be worthy, whether it is Enoch, Noah, Moses, Daniel, Job, or even himself. But none were worthy—no man could take the scroll. Only the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the one who conquered sin and death, and who is imaged as a Lamb having been slain, was worthy to take the scroll. This lamb has seven eyes, or complete sight provided by the Spirit of God, and seven horns. This gentle lamb who gave up His life for all, is now ready to fight and conquer all who stand in opposition to Him.
