As we look into the final book of the Bible again, remember that it is the revelation of Jesus Christ. The entire Bible is now combined into one majestic picture of Jesus as the Lamb of God. He whom the prophets foretold, the priest portrayed, and to whom John the Baptist pointed, the One who stood unknown in the midst of men, is now shown to be the center of God's plan for the last segment of time prior to when time shall be no more. And at the very center of the universe is His throne—a place of eternal calm, unceasing tranquility, perfect peace, and endless day—like the calm in the eye of a storm.
In Revelation 5, John transports us from Patmos' prison colony mines to the highest point of heaven to let us gaze at a moment yet future. We are at the throne of judgment, and on the throne is the judge of all, who is getting ready to take back the control of this earth that is reeling out of control toward destruction.
Chapter 5 is written in two distinct parts: verses 1-5 declare the utter unworthiness of mankind in the sight of God; verses 6-14 magnify the utter worthiness of the Lamb.
