BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 10, Day 5: Revelation 5:11-14

by atozmom, posted in BSF Revelation: The Hope 2024/2025

Summary of Revelation 5:11-14

Millions of angels encircled the throne, the living creatures, and the elders. They were saying how Jesus is worthy to receive power, wealth, wisdom, strength, honor, glory, and praise. All the creatures in heaven and earth gave God and Jesus praise,  honor, glory, and power. The four living creatures around the throne said “Amen,” and the elders fell down and worshiped. 

BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 10, Day 5: Revelation 5:11-14

10a) Jesus is worthy to receive power, wealth, wisdom, strength, honor, glory, and praise. Jesus is worthy because he was slain for us.

b) Worship is all-encompassing. It’s about praise, honor, and glory. It’s important to God and Jesus. It shows I need to be more purposeful in my praise and worship.

11a) John saw all the creatures in heaven and earth gave God and Jesus praise,  honor, glory, and power. The four living creatures around the throne said “Amen,” and the elders fell down and worshiped. Everything in heaven and earth praised the Lamb. This is appropriate because God/Jesus is creator over all things. Without them, we’d be nothing.

b) God created mankind in his image and He created all of the animals. He gave man dominion over the earth. God is the Creator of the universe, and we should honor him and give him all of the glory. We also need to care for what God has given us and that includes all of the animals of the earth. We all need to care more about all of God’s creatures.

Conclusions BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 10, Day 5: Revelation 5:11-14

Heaven seems like such an amazing place, doesn’t it?! What a sight to see — thousands of angels surrounding God and Jesus!

End Notes BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 10, Day 5: Revelation 5:11-14

Note that only the elders are singing the song of the redeemed. (This is the 2nd song of praise we see here). Nowhere in the Bible do we see angels redeemed. So, as far as we know, only mankind is redeemed.

Worship in Greek means “to fall down” and “to prostrate.” The elders literally did this.

The entire Bible is a chronicle of God’s plan to redeem His children aka us. How amazing!

Then, we see all of Creation join in for the 3rd song of praise here. Jesus will carry out God’s redemptive plan! Amen!

BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 10, Day 4: Revelation 5:8-10

by atozmom, posted in BSF Revelation: The Hope 2024/2025

Summary of Revelation 5:8-10

The elders and the four living creatures worshipped the Lamb when he took the scroll. They praised Jesus for purchasing for God believers who will reign on earth forever.

BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 10, Day 4: Revelation 5:8-10

7a) They fell down before the Lamb and worshipped him with a new song.

b) The Lamb was worthy because he was slain and purchased for God persons from all over the world and made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve God and reign on earth.

c) That the Lamb/Jesus sacrificed himself so we could be purchased for God. This means everything to me as now I can spend eternity with God, worshipping him, too.

8 ) I know that Jesus has purchased me because I’ve prayed for Jesus to come into my heart and be my Lord and Savior. God has chosen me to be with Him forever. The Holy Spirit lives inside of me. He has purchased us from a life of hell and eternal damnation.

9a) Humans/believers in Christ. Praising the Lord and serving Him all the rest of my days. Telling others of Christ, our Lord and Savior. Living a Godly life so that others may see and believe.

b) This is a tough one. I would be more Godly and do more things Jesus would do. I think what I deem important would not be as much.

Conclusions BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 10, Day 4: Revelation 5:8-10

I love this image of Jesus and those worshipping him and how we one day will as well!

End Notes BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 10, Day 4: Revelation 5:8-10

Fun Fact: This passage is where harps in heaven come from!

No doubt there will be music in heaven!

This “new song” is the first of 3 hymns we’ll see from the elders and the living creatures.

Golden bowls full of prayers. What an image!

Incense usually smells good, it flows upwards towards heaven, and it requires fire! Amazing! Incense in the Bible is seen as carrying the people’s prayer up to God.

Vere dignus is Latin for “you are worthy.” The Roman emperors used this as a greeting. However, there’s only one who is worthy!

Our kingdom is heaven as we reign as kings with Jesus. Jesus is our mediator, allowing us to be priests.

Fun Fact: “New song” appears 9 times in the Bible.

BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 10, Day 3: Revelation 5:6-7

by atozmom, posted in BSF Revelation: The Hope 2024/2025

Summary of Revelation 5:6-7

John sees a Lamb, looking as if it had been slain, standing at the center of the throne, encircled by the four living creatures and the elders. The Lamb had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth. He [Jesus] went and took the scroll from the right hand of him who sat on the throne.

BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 10, Day 3: Revelation 5:6-7

5a) Jesus. Jesus looked like a Lamb, looking as if it had been slain. The Lamb had seven horns and seven eyes.

b) The Lamb was slain to cover our sins, so believers can be with God for all of eternity. This means everything to me, for I know where I’m going and where I belong and who I belong to.

6a) God and Jesus are one.

b) It symbolizes completion. Jesus fully sees and understands (omniscient). The horns represent power, so we see Jesus’ absolute authority (omnipotence) over all. The seven spirits are the Holy Spirit both the Spirit of God and the Spirit of Christ.

Conclusions BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 10, Day 3: Revelation 5:6-7

What a great picture! We see God’s plan coming to fruition with Jesus opening the scroll. How amazing!

End Notes BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 10, Day 3: Revelation 5:6-7

Since the Lamb looked like it had been slain, it probably bore the marks of crucifixion.

Only Jesus can take the scroll.

BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 10, Day 2: Revelation 5:1-5

by atozmom, posted in BSF Revelation: The Hope 2024/2025

Summary of Revelation 5:1-5

John sees God holding a scroll sealed with 7 seals. There was no one worthy to open the scrolls. John wept because no one was able to open the scrolls. Then, one of the elders said that the Lion of the tribe of Judah (Jesus) is able to open the scroll.

BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 10, Day 2: Revelation 5:1-5

3a) John saw God holding a scroll with writing on both sides and sealed with seven seals. The angel asked, “Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll?”

b) He wept. He was so overwhelmed with grief cause he knew the scroll needed to be opened since the angel was seeking someone worthy. He may have thought the future lay on it and he wanted to know it. Or, he thought that the world would end if it were not opened. Whatever John thought, it was profound enough to make him cry.

4a) The elder said, “Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.”

b) These are messianic titles or titles for Jesus. Judah is compared to a lion’s cub, and it is from the tribe of Judah that Jesus will come. Jesus will come from the line of David. He will establish the forever kingdom.

c) Jesus overcame sin to save all of humanity with his blood. He purchased us for God. It is encouraging and gives me hope when I am down.

Conclusions BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 10, Day 2: Revelation 5:1-5

I love how Jesus is worthy!

End Notes BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 10, Day 2: Revelation 5:1-5

Most scrolls at that time only had writing on one side. There were 7 strings that were sealed with wax creating the 7 seals on this one scroll.

No one knows what is on this scroll, and only Jesus can open it. Many Bible scholars say this seal holds the history of the world and is God’s final will because wills in Roman times had 7 seals on them.

The Messianic title Lion of the tribe of Judah comes from Genesis 49:9-10, Isaiah 31:4, and Hosea 11:10. Root of David comes from Isaiah 11:10 and is also used in Revelation 22:16.

The scroll is most likely God’s redemptive plan for mankind come to fruition, as well as His purposes for the world. If it’s not opened, none of it will be fulfilled.
