What is the little book in Revelation 10:10

Automatic Transcript Generated

Speaker 1

True.

Speaker 2

All right, let’s get our next question up here.

Speaker 3

So we’re like 30 minutes in and.

Speaker 2

We have a lot of questions left. We’re going to have to pick this up. So Dan is asking Revelation ten, nine to ten, what is the little scroll, lamb’s book and Bible okay?

Speaker 3

Or is he maybe asking if it’s the Bible?

Speaker 1

Yeah, I think that’s that’s what I understood that’s. Okay. Is that okay if I grab this one? Because I really like this question a lot.

Speaker 2

Go for it.

Speaker 4

So it’s really interesting when it comes.

Speaker 1

To Revelation chapter ten, because this is kind of a random plugin that happens in the middle of a big event.

Speaker 4

So if you read in Revelation, chapters.

Speaker 1

Eight and nine, you see it’s the beginning of the seven trumpets. So basically the seven seals are opening and then the last seal opens.

Speaker 4

And as the last seal opens in.

Speaker 1

Chapter eight, then God calls for seven trumpets to blow. And this takes us through a line of devastations and things that happen on the earth that are to happen before the coming of Jesus.

Speaker 4

Now it’s interesting because eight and nine.

Speaker 1

You get through the first six trumpets and then there’s the 7th trumpet that needs to sound.

Speaker 4

But then chapter ten happens.

Speaker 1

And so this event is kind of telling you, hey, near right before the last trumpet blows, right? Very soon before Jesus comes, this event is going to take place.

Speaker 4

And so there’s something very interesting that.

Speaker 1

Says in the chapter that tells you what this little book is. And if you go to Revelation chapter ten, verse four, it says something very specific about the message here given by the angel that tells you what this little book is. So if you go to Revelation chapter ten and verse four, it says, and when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered and write them not. So it’s talking about that this time, this message from this angel that appears in Revelation ten, and he utters seven thunders and gives a little book to John. But the message basically because an angel in the Bible is basically a messenger, it’s not necessarily a literal angel, just like the three angels messages of Revelation 14. It’s not a literal angel proclaiming with a loud voice these things. It’s God’s people giving a message. And so there’s a message here in Revelation ten, and part of that message is seven thunders being uttered, but those things are sealed up. Now, what is the one place in the Bible where God says something is sealed until the time of the end?

Speaker 4

If you don’t know, I’m going to.

Speaker 1

Tell you because it’s in the book of Daniel. If you look in Daniel chapter twelve.

Speaker 4

It reads and I’ll just for time’s.

Speaker 1

Sake, I won’t read it, but I’ll just tell you where it is in Daniel, chapter twelve and verses, sorry, I wrote it down. Four and nine, both of those times. Basically God says, seal up the writings of this prophecy, for they are till the time of the end. And so basically this little book that’s given to John is the book of Daniel. And specifically those prophecies that Daniel really didn’t understand, like Daniel finally understood the prophecies of Daniel eight. You see that in chapter ten. But the prophecies of Daniel eleven and twelve he really doesn’t understand. And God says this is sealed up to the time of the end. So it’s not until was it the.

Speaker 3

Book of Daniel or was it the book of Revelation? Daniel was given the book of Revelation and that was the one that was sealed up.

Speaker 1

Let me just make sure it’s clear. The little book that sealed up is the book of Daniel. And I believe that is the book that the angel gives to John to eat up. That in his mouth will be sweet as honey, but in his belly it will be bitter. Because this is a message given to God’s people near the end of time, right before the time of the end. And we know that the time of the end is after the 2300 days of Daniel 814, because it says unto 2300 days, then shall the sanctuary be cleansed. And that’s the last day of the Jewish year, the day of Atonement. And so it’s at the end of the 2300 day prophecy, which if you go into Daniel nine, you’ll know that that begins at the proclamation of the freeing of God’s people to rebuild Jerusalem, which happened in 457 BC. And it ends in 1844. So basically there is going to be a time where God’s people near the time of the end are going to eat up this little book. It’s going to be sweet in their mouth, but in their stomach it’s going to be bitter.

Speaker 1

But the last thing that the angel calls John to do, it says thou must prophesy again. So there’s going to be a special message from the book of Daniel that God’s people are supposed to give during this time of the end before Jesus comes. And if you read the book of Daniel, we now can understand it based on the prophecies of Revelation, as you understand both the books of Daniel Revelation together, because you really need both books to understand these prophecies. So in a nutshell, that little book of Revelation ten is the book of Daniel because that’s what was sealed up until the time of the end. And just as these seven thunders were sealed. But God’s people at first their first understanding, they thought this was sweet, but it ended up bitter. But then God’s people then have to process the truth of the book of Daniel, the truth of the book of Revelation, and prophesy again and give a message of prophecy before the coming of Christ. Do you guys have any other thoughts on that?

Speaker 3

So we have a comment from Anthony Cox and he says his first comment, but John’s book is not sealed because the time was soon. I think that’s a really good point. Back to what you’re saying.

Speaker 1

Yeah, no, and that’s true, because if you read in Revelation, chapter 22, and that was another point I was saying is the book of Revelation is not sealed. If you look in Revelation at the last chapter 22 and verse ten, it says, don’t seal up this book because the time is at hand. And so, like you’re saying, the book of Revelation is not the little book, it’s not the Bible. The only thing that’s sealed up is that book of Daniel. So anyways, that’s just my thoughts as well.
