The Sealed Scroll and Revelation
What is the sealed scroll and what is revelation?
The
Lord Jesus said in Mt 11:27, “All things have been handed over to me by my
Father. No one knows the son except the Father, and no one knows the Father
except the son and anyone to whom the son decides to reveal him.” He is saying
that only the one who receives the revelation is able to know the Father. He
also stated in Jn 17:3, “Now this is eternal life – that they know you, the only
true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you sent.”
According
to the prophecies in Is 29:9-13, pastors are blind because the revelation is
nothing but a sealed scroll to them. This is why pastors preach the teachings of
men; this is why those who learn the teachings of men from them say “Lord!
Lord!“ paying mere lip-service to God. Despite their outward confessions of
faith, their hearts are far from God. Habakkuk said that the revelation’s
fulfillment awaits an appointed time (Hb 2:2-3). The book of Ezekiel explains
that the revelation is opened at the appointed time when God’s chosen people are
seized by gentiles. According to the prophecies in Ez 1-3, Jesus came into the
world when the Israelites were under the control of gentiles. Jesus received the
revelation from God and delivered it to the people (Mt 15:24; Mt 11:27). In the
midst of this situation, Jesus proclaimed that no one knew the son except the
Father, and that it was only the son, who had received the revelation, that knew
the Father. He also proclaimed that eternal life was to know the only true
Father and his son, Jesus.
“The
revelation of Jesus Christ” is again mentioned in Rv 1:1. This revelation is
passed down to God’s people in a very specific way. First, Jesus takes the
sealed scroll from God’s hand in Rv 5. He begins to break the seals in Rv 6 and
fulfills the prophecies according to what is written in the scroll. Beginning in
Rv 8, the seven trumpets are sounded to proclaim the fulfillment. Then, in Rv
10, Jesus gives the opened scroll to one pastor and tells him where to go to
deliver the message. Before the revelation is made known, it is only the
teachings of men that are being taught; no one knows the true revelation.
Although those who lack knowledge of the revelation draw near to God with their
lips, their lives of faith are inadequate because their hearts are far from
God.
No
one knows God, Jesus, and the one who overcomes except those who have received
the revelation of Jesus Christ (i.e. the book of Revelation) through SCJ today.
For this reason, no one truly has eternal life except these people in SCJ (Rv
1:1-3; Rv 7; Rv 10). Those who receive the revealed word from above will be able
to know the only true God, Jesus, and the one who has come in the name of the
Lord—the one who overcomes within whom the spirit of the Counselor dwells (Jn
14:26; Jn 17:3). Knowing these entities is eternal life. Today, God has granted
everything to SCJ where the one who overcomes is (Rv 2-3; Rv 21:1-7). Among all
the nations of the world, it is only SCJ that has mastered the book of
Revelation. Just as Apostle Paul and Apostle John taught the revelation (Gal
1:11-12; Rv 10), people should forsake the teachings of men and learn the
revelation from heaven in SCJ. I sincerely pray that everyone will obtain
salvation by doing so.
