The Seven Stars and Lampstands: Insights from Revelation 1:20

Revelation 1:20 reveals the symbolism behind the vision John described earlier. The seven stars represent the angels of the seven churches, and the seven golden lampstands symbolize the churches themselves. This verse clarifies the connection between the heavenly and the earthly, indicating that the churches are under Christ's watchful care, symbolized by the lampstands being in His midst. The stars, or angels, suggest a protective or guiding role over these congregations, highlighting the divine oversight and care for the churches. Through this imagery, the passage communicates the idea that each church, while facing its unique challenges, is not alone but is overseen by Christ and guided by His appointed messengers. This serves as a reminder of the spiritual realities behind the physical institutions and reassures believers of Christ's ongoing presence and sovereignty over His church.

"See i will send my messanger who will prepare the way before me", "i have chosen you as the 7 stars, the 7 messangers of Revelation you shall prepare the way for the Lord". Jesus' words.

"We are the 7 stars, we made a covenant with God and we preach the word" Those were the words of the 7 messangers chosen by Jesus who became the reality of that prophecy, as they were given the duty to prepare the way for Lord's 2nd coming. They were the 7 stars and their Tabernacle was the Tabernacle of the golden lampstands, just like John the Baptist.
