This talked about the throne in heaven and the scroll and the lamb. The thing that stuck out to me was the seven seals on the scroll. The breaking of those seven seals...I believe...is part of the return of Christ.
This seems to be more way to be righteous and showing how God despises evil.

I didn't recognize any of this reading, aside from some verses in chapter 4, which are things we recite in church from time to time. My mind is too focused on something else as I am trying to bring it back to where it should be, so I didn't quite get much understanding in this one. I didn't understand the seals, but it seems they are speaking of the Lamb, meaning the sacrificial lamb, Jesus. And then toward the end are more verses we recite in church.
This reading seems to be speaking to what we say and how we say things and how they can affect things, which is a reflection of the righteous verses unrighteous persons. As I was reading this a thought came to mind, it seems that people will choose one or some of a verse in order to suit their point, verses using the whole bible or book as a reference. I don't know why that came to mind, but it seemed important.
