“Seal” is also used as a metaphor. Paul wrote about the Holy Spirit as a "seal." It is like God puts a seal on a person when they receive the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit shows that the person truly belongs to God (see: 2 Corinthians 1:22; Ephesians 1:13; 2 Timothy 2:19; see also: 2 Corinthians 5:5). God the Father also put his seal on Jesus (see: John 6:27). That is, God the Father has shown that he approves of Jesus and Jesus belongs to him.

Some scholars think that the seal ensures that the people will remain faithful to God during the tribulation. In this way, God ensures that they will be saved at the final judgment. For these scholars, God’s seal in Revelation is the same as the sealing of the Holy Spirit.
