oh the seals-----my all time fave character in the SEVENTH SEAL-----was "DEATH" playing chess
One of the best films with best imagery, but not that. We do not want sin and death to reign, so the seventh seal MUST be opened. The seven seals are a mystery and John wept because the seventh seal could not be opened.
The revelation of Jesus is the one received from God of events to take place before the end of the world. Jesus told John, "3 Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear, and who keep what is written in it, for the time is near." Revelation 1:3
John was with the Holy Spirit and he saw that all the scrolls could not be read and thus he wept. His book of prophecy would not become a reality, and the blessings flowing from reading and obeying Revelation would be withheld from mankind.
English Standard Version
If the seventh seal cannot be opened as no one is found worthy to open it, then I suppose what happens in the movie reigns.
oh----what happened in the movie was THE BUBONIC PLAGUE. "Jesus told john"???? which john? The John who wrote revelations?------not him-----Jesus never met that John
Any kind of death and sin would continue. Jesus passed it down to John the Apostle who wrote the Book of Revelation. I'm studying Revelation now, but missed out on the early parts. I suppose the ending IS revealed, but how it happens is not. Would you recognize such events taking place or do you see something such as the imagery in the Seventh Seal?
Jesus "passed it down" to the JOHN who wrote
revelations? By what means? Revelations is chock full of all kinds of esoteric symbolism which
existed amongst jews for centuries before Jesus was
born-------why do you assume that Jesus all but wrote
that book? Who wrote the book of DANIEL?
I got the difficult and easy stories. Actually, neither Daniel nor Revelation is easy, so the latter would be the short one. But you have to answer what you believe. Do you believe sin and death continues in the movie or does the lamb open the seventh seal? I mean we could play a game with death and then do the dance of death at the end before it takes us. And that's it. Or do you believe that this is not all there is and that the real life starts anew after we die? If we only live twice, then we are already predestined.
