John’s vision of the glorified Christ (Rev. 1:9-18) shows Jesus as "one like the Son of Man" walking among seven lampstands endowed with priestly robes, white hair, eyes like flames, feet of refined brass, a voice like many waters, a two‑edged sword from his mouth, and a face shining like the sun. We explain that these features are apocalyptic symbols representing the deeper spiritual realities of Christ's person, authority, word and work, realities that strengthen, comfort and encourage believers in all ages.
