[Summary]
Apostle John was called up to heaven in chapter 4:1. There he saw what would take place after. He saw the scroll sealed up with 7 seals and the Lamb opened it one by one. When each seal was opened, the judgment was brought to the earth. When the 7th seal was about to be taken out, God takes time (chapter 7). And we can find the protection for his people and this is God's grace. Same thing happened before the 7th trumpet was blown. God takes time and gives the image that God will protect his church (chapter 10 and 11). But at the end of chapter 10, John now was told 'You must again prophesy.' That was the reason he was banished, but God gives grace and asked him to prophesy. And we can learn that God's grace is free but it comes with a purpose. Therefore, we should try to find the purpose of the grace we have received. For example, the cancer survivor should think about why God gave him/her a second chance.
