Jesus the Executioner
Grant Van Leuven
A continuation of the Throne Room Vision of Chapter 4, we see that only Jesus Christ is worthy of taking the scroll from the hand of the Ancient of Days and open its seven seals of judgments on humanity; which is to say, only the Lamb is worthy and only He does execute God’s eternal decrees of redemption on behalf of His saints from every tribe and language of the earth. And He only is worthy to be this Mediatorial King because it is His reward for being His Own sacrifice as Mediatorial Priest.
