An Introduction To The Keys And Functions Of The Seven Candlesticks, The Universal Church Of God, It's Interpretation And Meanings
Discover the
Hidden Symbolism of the 7 Golden Candlesticks in Revelation
On May 14, 1946, when the state of Israel was formed, they adopted the seven golden candlesticks as their official emblem. Remember, God ordered Moses to make this lampstand of seven golden candlesticks of beaten metalwork.
It was made between 1446BC and 1445BC of pure gold, and
placed in his tabernacle, to give light to it.
Exodus 25:31 And thou shalt make a candlestick
of pure gold: of beaten work shall the candlestick be made: his shaft, and his
branches, his bowls, his knops, and his flowers, shall be of the same.
What does it mean? Is this the mystery of God?
The aim of this post is to explain the hidden
meaning of the seven golden candlesticks, the official emblem of the state of
Israel as the organizational structure of God.
Emblem of Israel showing the 7 candlesticks of Revelation |
Have you ever wondered what the organogram
of God will look like? What if I tell you that the seven golden candlesticks,
the official emblem of the state of Israel represent the seven branches of God?
How God works and his hierarchy structure |
Let’s read it out in full.
Revelation 2:1 Unto the angel of the
church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in
his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks; 2 I
know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear
them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and
are not, and hast found them liars: 3 And hast borne, and hast patience, and
for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted. 4 Nevertheless I have
somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. 5 Remember
therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or
else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his
place, except thou repent. 6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of
the Nicolaitans, which I also hate. 7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what
the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of
the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.
What can you make out of this letter?
Here is a template of five themes embodied within each letter to the seven
churches, that you can use to decode the hidden meanings and symbols of the seven
golden candlesticks, the universal church of God.
The five themes for decoding the
functions of each church as an organ of God using Ephesus as an example are:
Theme 1. Christ addresses the head of the branch of God who will in turn
address his subordinates.
Theme 2. The codes which give the clues and
standards of the nature and work of the branch of God:
Theme 3. Christ’s Supervisory Report contains praises as well as displeasures.
Theme 4: Personnel Development. The nature of the development or
evolution level of the members of the church or branch of God.
Theme 5: God’s reward to the members of the church
at the end of the age
Of course, there are sub-themes in between these themes as you will soon find out.
HIDDEN MEANING OF THE CODES OF EPHESUS
Let’s begin by separating the letter
into its themes or sections.
THEME 1. CHRIST ADDRESSES THE HEAD OF THE BRANCH OF GOD.
Unto the angel of the church of
Ephesus write. This head angel then communicates
God’s report to his subordinates.
THEME 2. THE CODES WHICH GIVE THE CLUES TO THE NATURE AND WORK OF THIS
BRANCH OF GOD:
These things saith he that holdeth
the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden
candlesticks; I know thy works, and thy labour,
and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou
hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them
liars:
1. THIS CHURCH IS A SUPERVISORY BODY
He that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, means this branch of God ‘’holds’’ the other branches of God including
itself accountable for their actions. This is a supervisory role or function.
2. THIS CHURCH IS A COORDINATING BODY
Who walketh in the midst of the seven
golden candlesticks; Midst means centre, the heart, or
core. Therefore, the word midst implies that this is a coordinating body
of the seven branches of God.
Many people call angels messengers
because of the coordinating function of this branch of God. Angels from this
branch of God are the most visible to humans when they not only come to inform
us of God’s plans but coordinate his activities as well.
Can you now recollect any angel from
the church of Ephesus? Give us your opinion. What about angel Gabriel, the angel
who came to inform the Virgin Mary about God’s plan, and how the saviour will be
born through her?
Where else in the Bible do you find angels that come to inform and coordinate God’s work among humans? Comment down below.
3. THIS CHURCH IS AN EXAMINATION AND TESTING BODY
I know thy works, and thy labour,
and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou
hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them
liars:
‘’And thou hast tried them’’ means this is a testing body responsible for examining and weighing individuals on the scales or standards of God.
THEME 3. CHRIST’S SUPERVISORY REPORT.
This is a job assessment, an
on-the-job appraisal covering thousands of years, usually at the start or end
of an age. This one marks the beginning of the age of repentance for the forgiveness of misdeeds.
2 I know thy works, and thy labour,
and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou
hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them
liars: 3 And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast
laboured, and hast not fainted. 4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee,
because thou hast left thy first love. 5 Remember therefore from whence thou
art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee
quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.
6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I
also hate. 7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the
churches;
This job assessment marks the
beginning of the age, the New Testament for repentance for the remission of
sins.
The Christ supervisory report normally has three components or parts. Part one: an approval or commendation, part two: a rebuke or disapproval, and Part three, the consequences of continued disobedience.
Let us consider this now for Ephesus.
SUB THEME A: APPROVAL, PRAISES
2 I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars: 3 And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted. 6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.
SUB THEME B: DISAPPROVAL, DISPLEASURE!
4 Nevertheless I have somewhat
against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.
Some angels left their first love in Genesis 6.
SUB THEME C: THE RETRIBUTION IF UNREPENTANT
5 Remember therefore from whence
thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come
unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except
thou repent. 6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the
Nicolaitans, which I also hate.
Those who fail to abide by God’s instructions will be removed from this church: "or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent’’.
THEME 4: NATURE OF THE DEVELOPMENT OR EVOLUTION LEVEL OF THE MEMBERS OF
THE CHURCH OR BRANCH OF GOD.
Each church has a membership
development level. It is clear that Ephesus is only made up of perfected humans
or angels. Let us see why this is true using this passage.
4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. 5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.
ADVANCEMENT LEVEL OF EPHESUS MEMBERS.
The clue to discover the development
level of the members of this branch of God can be gotten by comparing the
records of the fallen angels as stated in the Bible. let's begin with Revelation: Because
thou hast left thy first love. Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen
and repent and do the first works.
Let us compare this with that in
the book of Jude 1:6 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but
left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under
darkness unto the judgment of the great day.
Let us also align that with that of
the fallen angels who left their work, their first love, and intermarried with
the daughters of the earth during the time of Noah. These angels produced the
giant race known as the Nephilim as recorded in Genesis 6.
Genesis 6:1 And it came to pass,
when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born
unto them, 2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were
fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. 3 And the LORD
said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh:
yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. 4 There were giants in
the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto
the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty
men which were of old, men of renown.
Therefore, only angels and perfected
members of the human race worship in this church or branch of God!

THEME 5: GOD’S REWARD TO THE MEMBERS OF THE CHURCH AT THE END OF THE AGE
7 He that hath an ear, let him hear
what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give
to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.
The Tree of Life |
God rewards the perfected human
members of this church with the tree of life thus re-entering the garden of God
and regaining immortality which we lost in Eden. This fulfils the aim of
God’s salvation plan in Christ.
Let’s now unravel God’s plan of
rapture into his universal mansions, the seven churches.
GOD’S PLAN FOR THE SEVEN BRANCHES OF GOD HEREIN CALLED THE SEVEN GOLDEN
CANDLESTICKS
All of mankind’s work fall within these seven golden candlesticks.
The 7 branches of God into which all creation belong. |
Therefore, all worthy members of the human
race will be raptured into these churches depending on their level of development and
branch of service.
The 7 churches of Rapture and the human professions |
It is my sincere hope that anyone
who watches this video or reads the blog will be able to align the codes of his
profession and work in line with the branch of God or church he falls into.
This simple action aligns us with the overall aim of God’s work.
Therefore, as you watch this video,
be sure to identify the church under which your profession or occupation falls
and use their code of ethics as guidelines for your work. This is the way to
the kingdom of God. This is your church of rapture!
With the above guidelines in view,
let us now have a spiritual look at the essence of the seven golden
candlesticks, the seven churches of Asia Minor. These are the branches of God’s
service. It is the mystery of God, the organigram of God. But in the days of the voice of the seventh
angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as
he hath declared to his servants the prophets. Revelation 10:7.
With this insight on how to decode the hidden symbols of the seven churches of God, let us now continue our study of the ethics of the seven mansions of God. Let's begin with the first church Ephesus, in the next post EPHESUS| Exploring the Hidden Secrets of the Ancient Church of Ephesus.
