Revelation Illustrated: Ch 1:12-20
12 And I turned to see the voice that spake with
me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks; 13 And in the midst
of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a
garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
14 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his
eyes were as a flame of fire; 15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as
if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went
a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his
strength. 17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid
his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the
last: 18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for
evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. 19 Write the things
which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall
be hereafter; 20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my
right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the
angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest
are the seven churches. |
