The Churches of God as the Golden Lampstands
The vision the apostle John sees in the book of Revelation begins when he hears a voice speaking to him:
What you see, write in a book and send it to the seven churches….
— Revelation 1:11
He then turns around to see the voice that had spoken to him, and says,
…When I turned around, I saw seven golden lampstands, and in the midst of the lampstands, one like a son of man….
— Revelation 1:12-13
We all need to hear such a speaking, and to have such a turn, today, so that we too may see Christ as the one standing in the midst of the “golden lampstands,” which are the churches of God (v. 20).
That is, to really see Christ, and to really participate in His work, we must find Him as the one who is today caring for the churches of God as His testimony on the earth.
So, in this episode we consider the churches of God as the golden lampstands, with Christ walking in their midst.
