June 21st -- Revelation 1 The Seven-Branched Lampstand |
||||||||||||||
"Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit." John was told that seven spirits were before the very throne of God. This particular lamp may be put out, that one may shine on, but standing behind the menorah of truth is the Lord of Glory, and every lamp that is glowing is fed from His inner fires. This lampstand, seven-branched to signify perfect completion -- the little pinpricks of light across the world's face -- must burn on as the shadow of human might and power come over, to preserve the light of life and love, to shed spiritual radiance, and to illumine the dread darkness which veils so many, many human hearts. Alan Eyre, The Christadelphian, 1977, page 128 |
