What does the golden crown symbolize (Revelation 14:14)
And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.
Revelation 14:14 - King James |
⚪ The Divine nature, Immortality

Having on His head a golden crown. — The Divine nature, Immortality, the highest form of life.—2 Tim. 4:8; Jas. 1:12; 1 Pet. 5:4. Source : 🇺🇸 1917 - Studies in the Scriptures, Vol 7, The finished mystery, page 225 + Cover |
⚫ Christ taking his power in 1914
The crown of David's Successor whose right it is to rule was 'overturned' until Christ was placed upon his throne, in 1914. [...] The symbolic vision shows Christ taking his power in 1914 with a crown upon his head and "in his hand a sharp sickle".

In a vision given to the apostle John, Jehovah reveals that he assigned Jesus to take the lead in a global harvest
of people. (Read Revelation 14:14-16.) In this vision, Jesus is described as having a crown and a sickle. The “golden crown on [Jesus’] head” confirms his position as ruling King. [...] Since John’s vision in Revelation chapter 14 shows Jesus, the Harvester, wearing a crown (verse 14), his appointment as King in 1914 had already taken place.
