A Grotesque Figure
Through symbolism we see the
Full meaning of the vision and
Assurance of God’s blessings.
There stood the triumphant Christ.
In humanness of our Lord’s Person,
Amidst the glory that surrounds Him,
We are to think of him as a man;
But what a man! What a figure!
Attired in a robe, hair White as wool.
His eyes like blazing fire. His feet
Like bronze glowing in a furnace
And a voice of rushing water.
Holding seven stars, out of his mouth
Came a sharp double-edged sword.
His face was like the sun.
What an intriguing figure!
He was clothed as a priest and king.
His white hair meant holiness,
The fiery eyes symbolized penetrating
Vision. Bronzed feet symbolize strength.
The voice; authority over people
And nations. His face like the sun
Refers to his majesty. The stars are
Pastors; Lamp-stands the churches.
