Window

Building Name: Second Reformed Church

City: Kalamazoo

Subject/Title of Window: Eternal Life

Brief Description of Subject: The overall theme of this window, which is part of a five window series, is God is the light of the world. This window is derived from the book of Revelation. The golden temple rises all along the right side of the window, it is the glory of God which provides all light to the Holy City. There are plagues, the angular red shape, all collected together and there are two books in the window. There is the golden book which is the book of life where the names of the blessed are inscribed and there is an purple book with a snake on its cover which represents the list of those not entered into the golden book. Relevant passages include: Ephesians 5:24 and Revelations 22:5.

The MSGC is a constantly evolving database. Not all the data that has been collected by volunteers has been sorted and entered. Not every building has been completely documented.

All images in the Index are either born-digital photographs of windows or buildings or are scans of slides, prints, or other published sources. These images have been provided by volunteers and the quality of the material varies widely.
