Why is the Lamb of God significant in heaven?

Answered in 1 source

The Lamb of God is central in heaven because He represents the completed work of redemption and is the object of worship.

In the Book of Revelation, Christ is referred to as the Lamb twenty-six times to stress His role in redemption. Worship in heaven revolves around the Lamb, emphasizing that no one can approach God without Him. Hebrews 9:7 highlights that true worship is only possible through the mediation of Christ, who was both the sacrifice and now stands in triumph. His posture as a standing Lamb signifies victory over sin and death, and He encourages believers with His merciful nature. This depiction invites the faithful to draw near with confidence, knowing the Lamb has triumphed over all adversaries by His sacrifice.
