“His feet were like burnished
bronze,
refined in a furnace… When I saw Him,
I fell at His feet as though dead.”
-REVELATION 1:15,17 ESV
When
this other side of Christ was revealed to John, he “fell at His feet as
though dead.” At the Last Supper, John had leaned on the Lord’s breast
and eaten dinner with Him. In
this context, however, he can do nothing but collapse at His feet.
There
at His feet we discover there is a difference between the Holy and the
Human; the One Who comes from Above, and the ones who come from Below;
the One Who is Spirit and Truth, and those of us who are merely flesh
and blood. His feet are burnished bronze. This is His majesty, and
His righteousness. It immediately identifies Him as King of Kings and
Lord of Lords, the Righteous Judge, the Living Word Who discerns the
thoughts and intents of the heart.
