In Revelation 6, who opens the first seal?
The Lamb of God, God the Son, the Christ, opens the first seal in Revelation 6. John sees the scroll has been taken, and when the Lamb opened one of the seals, He begins the process of paying off the mortgage with its seven seals.
Les explains that in Revelation 6, the first thing introduced is the four horsemen of the apocalypse. John sees that the scroll has been taken, and when the Lamb opened one of the seals, the Lamb of God opens the first of the seven seals. Les emphasizes that God the Son, the Christ, the Lamb of God, is the One opening the seals. He had taken the mortgage with the seven seals, and now He opens it and begins the process of paying it off. These seals take us up to the midpoint of the tribulation, and Revelation contains a whole series of sevens.
And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
