The Worthy One: Part I
Pastor Ty Neal
Jesus, save the lost and guide the saved.
“I’m not very optimistic. When I look at history, I discover man has not treated man very well. When I look at the contemporary world, I discover not much has changed. I’m not hopeful about the future. I believe the future holds for mankind certain destruction and potential annihilation. I have no reason to be encouraged about the future.”
We cannot claim to know the end and goal of history. Therefore, the question of meaning in history has become meaningless.
Rudolf BultmannRevelation 5:1Revelation 5:2
The destiny of John, of the church, and of the universe itself hangs in the balance over the question of whether someone can open the scroll.
Vern PoythressRevelation 5:3Revelation 5:4
You will understand the meaning of these tears if you constantly bear in mind that in this beautiful vision the opening of the scroll by breaking the seals indicates the execution of God’s plan. When the scroll is opened and the seals are broken, then the universe is governed in the interest of the Church. Then, God’s glorious, redemptive purpose is being realized; His plan is being carried out and the contents of the scroll come to pass in the history of the universe. But if the scroll is not opened it means that there will be no protection for God’s children in the hours of bitter trial; no judgments upon a persecuting world; no ultimate triumph for believers; no new heaven and earth; no future inheritance.

By his death and resurrection Jesus has taken control of history. . . . Jesus is the one who will right the wrongs and heal the hurts and wipe away the tears.
James HamiltonRevelation 5:7
Big Idea: You can trust Jesus with that.
God knows our sin but calls us by our name. The accuser, on the other hand, knows our name but calls us by our sin.
Matt FraddBig Idea: You can trust Jesus with that.
Jesus, I recognize that I am a sinner in need of Your forgiveness. I believe that You died on the cross for my sins. I want to turn away from my sins and place my trust in You as my Lord and Savior. Please receive me now. I pray this in Jesus’ name, Amen.
