“Candlesticks” – Scripture Study
1) A candlestick is also a lamp stand/put on a lamp stand.
2) The two candlesticks of Revelation 11 = Body of Christ.
3) The seven candlesticks = the seven churches (invisible) = the light bearers in the corporate (visible) assembly.
4) The candlesticks are the believers.
5) The flame represents the continual (daily). To remove it is to leave the congregation desolate. (Daniel 11:31 “And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily, (continual) and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate.”)
See the word study on “The Daily Sacrifice” for more information regarding the continual/daily, aswell as “The Beast out of the Earth” article by Alfred J. Chompff.
