Delivered Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Q3. (Revelation 5:9, 12) What made Jesus so worthy of opening the scroll and thus bringing history to its consummation? Because Jesus is of the root and the offspring of King David, I am reminded that salvation is of the Jews, the bright and morning star, the Star of David. Worthy is found in the precious blood of the Lamb, uniting us together, reconciling us unto God, for Christ has slain the enmity, the barrier that kept me a Gentile from having fellowship with God and His chosen people. (I am looking forward to seeing Moses and having lunch with him) Worthy for Christ came to do the will of the Father, Christ came and He concurred, taking the keys of hell and death, Christ came without spot or wrinkle, Christ purged our sins pleasing the Father and the Father gave Him a name above all names, a name worthy enough to open the seals of the book, a name worthy enough that all of mankind will one day confess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sue D Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Q3. (Revelation 5:9, 12) What made Jesus so worthy of opening the scroll and thus bringing history to its consummation? Why was this act so noteworthy and praiseworthy? Sue D. Q 3 -- Because Christ was slain -- we are redeemed by His blood to God -- He has made us kings and priests to God. We will reign with Him on the earth. He is worthy because He is Son of God who's death and resurrection broke power of Satan -- we can have eternal life in Heaven rather than with Satan and his followers in eternal hell. I also appreciate the input from Delivered who gets these questions and answers them about three weeks before I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpha1 Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 Because He was slain, and with His blood He purchased the souls of men for God for men of all tribes and nations. It is noteworthy as Jesus was the only man who ever lived who was found worthy to open the seals on the scrolls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royk Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 Q3. (Revelation 5:9, 12) What made Jesus so worthy of opening the scroll and thus bringing history to its consummation? Why was this act so noteworthy and praiseworthy? Jesus gave it all to us, just as the Father told Him to do. He showed love and compassion. Then He gave Himself as sacrifice for our sins. No other would be worthy to open the scroll. "There is nothing more precious, more worth. May I gaze deeper, may I stay longer; may I press on to know you l=Lord." [lyrics from Laura Story's song "There is Nothing" Let His Glory be seen by All men. May we all bow before Him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why was this act so noteworthy and praiseworthy? Jesus completed history through His death and resurrection.

the prophet Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 Q3. (Revelation 5:9, 12) What made Jesus so worthy of opening the scroll and thus bringing history to its consummation? Why was this act so noteworthy and praiseworthy? Jesus was worthy to open the scroll because He is the Messiah, the promised one, the one who fulfilled all the prophecies. He is the one promised since the Fall in the Garden of Eden. He was the one promised to crush the serpent's head. Opening the seals involves the beginning of the punishment for the enemy and his minions so only Christ can and should be the one to do it. It is fitting that the one who suffered and died and rose again, bringing salvation to all who believe, whojld be the one who also brings death to all the enemies of the gospel.

Josephine Koh Posted June 7, 2010 Report Share Posted June 7, 2010 Jesus was slained, He died on the cross for men and shed His blood in order to redeem us.

Why was this act so noteworthy and praiseworthy? Jesus is worthy because He chose to be the sacrificial Lamb.

PASTOR D Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 Q3. (Revelation 5:9, 12) What made Jesus so worthy of opening the scroll and thus bringing history to its consummation? Why was this act so noteworthy and praiseworthy? Jesus is our Redeemer - He is the One who paid the debt for humanities sins - He is the One, the only One who could and did atone for our sins and redeem us back to God. . . He is the One who defeated Satan. . . So, in essence He is the One who consummated God's plan of deliverance and salvation thereby having the power and authority to open the scroll and declare that God'd plan has been completed. . . This act was noteworthy and praiseworthy because it was an act that only He could perform - and that the performance of it was not out of obligation or duty - but out of love. . .

Ramon Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 Answer:The Scroll was sealed,and locked.When something is locked you need a key,to open.The key was prophesied to be upon Jesus Shoulder: Isaiah 22:22- And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; so he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open This key was also given,to all those who Stand on His name,on His Lordship,who receive,and confess that Jesus is the Son of God.. Matthew 16:19- And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Nobody is worthy,enough to do what Jesus has done.He is God,with all humility,came down,descended His throne in Heaven,to be like us to condemn the sinful nature of man(Romans 8:2-.. , God sending his own Son in the likeness sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh)and redeemed mankind. This Act is worthy to be Praised,and exalted,FOR NO OTHER GOD,WILL COME DOWN TO BE LIKE HIS CREATION,TO SUFFER THE PENALTY THAT THEY DESERVED,TO SUFFER PHYSICAL PAIN,AND THE HIGHEST FORM OF HUMILIATION(In a sense of being God,and receive the redicule,spit,slapped,etc by His creation),and TO BE REJECTED BY THE SAME PEOPLE HE CREATED.

dlite80 Posted December 10, 2010 Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 Jesus is not only worthy because He is the Son of Almighty God (part of the Triune) but He humbly came to die, redeem and reconcile mankind to God!

Lion of Grace Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 What made Jesus so worthy to open the scrolls and thus bringing history to consummation? Jesus was worthy to open the scroll because of His complete obedience and blood sacrifice to overcome sin and death. He was the Paschal Lamb offered as final sacrifice bringing an end to the old covenant and beginning the new covenant. With the old, there had to be a continuous sacrifice as atonement for sin but now we are all redeemed under the blood of the Lamb once and for all for those who believe in His atoning sacrifice. We believe through our faith that it IS finished. That sin and death have no more sting. That we are seated in Heaven with Father. We know though our flesh sins, we are born of the Spirit and our righteousness in in Christ and we are covered by His blood. We are assured that He who began a good work in us will bring it to completion and there is now no condemnation in Christ. We are safe! True son's and daughters in Christ! WOW! The good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ! Why is this act so noteworthy and praiseworthy? I think we get "numb" on religion with just "knowing" the facts in all this but we lose sight that this was the plan from the beginning! That Jesus is/was "God with us." That our Maker, came down and became both God and man to redeem us! We were always on His mind. He loves us and doesn't want anyone to perish. It's amazing that someone so supreme as GOD bent so low, became one of us, suffered in life to have empathy with us and understand our plight, was rejected and hated, murdered and left alone, yet never sinned to overcome sin. HE wasn't guilty....man was guilty. He was and is the PERFECT sacrifice because God demanded the BEST for our redemption and not only that, but gave His ONLY begotten Son so we could have life. If that's not love and giving....worthy of praise and humble thanksgiving....what is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

van Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 Christ is noteworthy to open the scrolls because no where in history will you find or ever will find anyone to do what Christ did for us. He saw mankind was so sinful and wouldn't have a chance to enter heaven that He offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice. The Son of God love God the father so, so much that he came down to be born from a human to be that sacrifice we needed. The Lamb of God is the only one that can take away the sins of the world! I always say that Christ looked over 2,000 years down the line and saw a poor sinner like myself and I was going to need Him to die for me in order for me to be saved. Thank you Lord Jesus! Only He is worthy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
