AMPLIFIED 2015 | Revelation 1:20 "As for the mystery of the seven stars which you saw in My right hand, and the seven golden lampstands: the seven stars are the angels (divine messengers) of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven churches. |
Bible Question: I know that its talking about the seven churches but, do you think that this means that there are even angels within the church today? |
Bible Answer: In this passage, instead of focusing on an individual "being," perhaps the word "messenger" is a better description of what these seven angels actually are. The message of the seven individual churches mentioned in Revelation has continued significance as each is broadcast across the centuries of time. |
