Week 6 Seals 5, 6, 7 Who is Able to Stand?

Published on: 2nd May, 2025

In this episode of the Friday Night Bible Study, the focus is on the unveiling of the last three seals in the Book of Revelation, specifically the fifth and sixth seals. The discussion begins with a recap of the first four seals and their relevance to the sanctuary scenes in Revelation chapters four and five. The study then delves into the significance of the fifth seal, which reveals the souls of martyrs slain for their faith under the altar, symbolizing their call for divine justice. The notion of resting until the final judgment and the symbolic nature of blood crying out for justice is explored. Emphasis is placed on the need for Christians to remain faithful, even in persecution, akin to the historical martyrs. The sixth seal is described through cosmic disturbances, historical events like the Lisbon earthquake, and other celestial phenomena that signal the eventual second coming of Christ. The interlude between the sixth and seventh seal involves a detailed explanation of the 144,000 being sealed, interpreted as a symbolic representation of those faithful to God. The concept of the seal of God, its connection to the Sabbath, and the ultimate reward for believers who remain true to God's commandments are discussed. The session concludes with a reflection on who will be able to stand in the end times, highlighting the importance of being sealed by God and adhering to His laws.
