The fifth seal in Revelation unveils the spiritual reality of martyred believers whose souls, immediately present with Christ after death, cry out for divine justice under the heavenly altar—a vision affirming the immortality of the soul, the immediacy of glorification, and the ultimate triumph of God's righteousness over persecution. Far from a mere historical account, this passage reveals the ongoing spiritual warfare between Christ and the world, where the faithful are united with Christ in suffering, and their martyrdom becomes a powerful testimony to the truth that persecution of believers is persecution of Christ Himself. The altar, interpreted as the golden altar of incense in heaven, symbolizes the prayers of the saints ascending to God, emphasizing that their cry for justice is not vengeance but a righteous appeal to God's sovereign timing and holiness. The sermon underscores that while not all are called to physical martyrdom, every believer is summoned to daily self-denial, crucifying the flesh, and living as a living sacrifice in union with Christ, empowered by His death and resurrection. This call to spiritual surrender is not a burden but a path to true joy, as delighting in the Lord aligns the heart with His will and fulfills the deepest longings of the soul.
