REVELATION ITS GRA ND CLIMAX AT HAND!/Chapter Fourteen - Lamps of Fire and a Glassy Sea

 What does John further see? This: "And there are seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, and these mean the seven spirits of God. And before the throne there is, as it were, a glass sea like crystal." (Revelation 4:5b, 6a) John himself tells  us the significance of the seven lamps:  "These mean the seven spirits of God." The number seven symbolizes divine completeness; so the seven lamps  must represent the fullness of the enlightening force of the holy spirit.  How grateful the John class today is that it has been entrusted with this enlightenment, together with the responsibility to pass it on to the spiritually hungry peoples of the earth!  How glad we are that each year over 200 million copies  of the Watchtower magazine continue to beam forth this light in more than a hundred languages! - PSALM 43:3.
