The Glorious Christ Walking among the Seven Golden Lampstands
Revelation 1:13 In the midst of the lampstands was one who looked like a son of man, dressed in a long robe that reached to his feet, and a golden belt around his breast.
Revelation 1:14 His head and hair were white, like wool as snow, and his eyes were like flames of fire.
Revelation 1:15 His feet were like fine bronze refined in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of many waters.
Revelation 1:16 In his right hand he held seven stars, and out of his mouth came a sharp, two-edged sword. His face was like the sun at its zenith.
