Christ`s Authority. (The Crown of Life. Rev. 2: 10)
This crown represents the authority to rule and reign with Christ. We are called of Christ to be King Priests, and then empowered with His authority. Each overcomer will also be given specific authority and responsibility for specific areas of service. These are represented by other `crowns,` which we will receive in relation to our obedience to the Holy Spirit.

Christ the Reward. (Rev. 2 & 3)
Christ`s promises of a reward to the seven churches encompass the full inheritance to every overcomer. This includes a new body, an incorruptible one that can dwell in the realms of the third heaven.
`For this corruptible must put on incorruption,
and this mortal must put on immortality...`
