Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Revelation 1:17. And when I saw him. I fell at his feet as dead.

Oh! how the "I" dies when Christ is manifested! How we sink! And yet our joys shall rise unutterably, immeasurably high. I fell at his feet as dead.

Revelation 1:17. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:

There is where your comfort comes from - not from what you are, but from what he is. You are the last, but he - here is the point - he is the first and the last.
