# Seal
Sealing something kept it closed. The thing that keeps it closed is called a seal (Revelation 5:1). When something is sealed, it is impossible to open without removing the seal. Certain documents are sealed in this way. Often a seal is marked in a way that allows others to know who sealed it.

“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.
