God holds a scroll in his right hand that is sealed with seven seals. It represents God's plan but no one is found worthy to open it or read it. However, an elder tells John not to weep, for the Lion of Judah, Jesus, has prevailed and is worthy as the slain Lamb to open the scroll and loose its seals. When John looks, he sees the Lamb with seven horns and seven eyes standing in the midst of the throne, representing his power and the fullness of God's spirit.
