Revelation 1:12-20

12 I turned to see who it was that was speaking to me; and then I saw seven golden lampstands,
13 and in the center of the lampstands some One resembling the Son of Man, clothed in a robe which reached to His feet, and with a girdle of gold across His breast.
14 His head and His hair were white, like white wool--as white as snow; and His eyes resembled a flame of fire.
15 His feet were like silver-bronze, when it is white-hot in a furnace; and His voice resembled the sound of many waters.
16 In His right hand He held seven stars, and a sharp, two-edged sword was seen coming from His mouth; and His glance resembled the sun when it is shining with its full strength.
17 When I saw Him, I fell at His feet as if I were dead. But He laid His right hand upon me and said, "Do not be afraid: I am the First and the Last, and the ever-living One.
18 I died; but I am now alive until the Ages of the Ages, and I have the keys of the gates of Death and of Hades!
19 Write down therefore the things you have just seen, and those which are now taking place, and those which are soon to follow:
20 the secret meaning of the seven stars which you have seen in My right hand, and of the seven lampstands of gold. The seven stars are the ministers of the seven Churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven Churches.
