Jesus Introduction

According Rev 1:20 we know that the 7 stars are 7 messengers of church and 7 lampstands are 7 churches. But what we need to understand here means why

Lord Jesus introduces Himself to the church like this? Not only has that He mentioning I walked among the seven golden lampstands.

Ephesus was the first church. In the early days after Lord Jesus resurrected the gospel was spread very fast by His apostles. So the church had faith in Christ. St. Paul mentioned this in Eph 2:8

Eph2:8 By the grace of God you have been saved through faith. This has not come from you: it is God's gift.

Because of that God name glorified mist of them. In the second part of acts 19:17 tells us “the name of the Lord Jesus came to be held in great honor”

 because of that only Lord Introduce Himself like this “who walks among the seven golden lampstands.”
