Epistles--Prophecy

1. Multiple choice: In Revelation 5, an angel told John not to weep because " the (a) King; (b) Lion; or (c) priest of the tribe of Judah....has prevailed to open the scroll."

2. Fill in the blanks: In John's vision of the risen Christ in Revelation 5, Christ appeared as a Lamb that had been slain. He was also seen to have seven ---------- and seven --------.

1. (b) "Lion" (Rev. 5:5). As  Jacob blesses his sons before his death, he says of Judah, "Judah is a lion's whelp" (Gen. 49:9). Christ is the ultimate fulfillment of that prophecy, being the conquering lion worthy to open the seven seals of God's judgment.

2. Horns...eyes (Rev.5:6).
