--- Quote from: Gina Hi, MIKIEL (not JFK, oopsie):

Rev. 4:5  And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: [b ---and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which ARE the seven Spirits of God[/b].

Rev. 1:19 "Write, therefore, what you have seen, what is now and what will take place later. 20 The mystery of the seven stars that you saw in my right hand and of the seven golden lampstands is this: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands ARE the seven churches.

I understood it to mean that the seven spirits ARE the seven lampstands (lamps burning with fire) which ARE the seven churches. 

Ray explains it all in his papers.  Look in Ray's article on Hell Part D, I believe is where I saw it.  Or google:

site:bible-truths.com + "seven spirits"  and you'll find everything.

Hope that helps a little.  Now, back to time and eternity.  And let's....


 ;D  hehe  (I love that.)

Thanks Gina,

Interesting scriptures, I will resist the temptation to continue on the seven spirits.

I agree with Rays views on time, that it will continue. I kind of like Eph. 5:16" Redeeming your time, because the days are evil." Making the most of our time. I often spend time meditating and hopeing for the day that God gives me his Spirit, often " Begging him for it." It tickled me when I heard Ray say in one of his vedios that theres nothing wrong with begging God for things, I felt better about the times I have begged. The hunger and thrist for righteousness is very real in me, and I am comforted by Jesus teachings that those hungers will be filled one day. In time.

Time will bring about the fulfilling of those who crave Gods righteousness, like myself. If time is the unfolding of Gods will, I look forward to time.

You might want to study this great article from Ray.  Many of us have found it helpful in understanding scriptural truths.

 Thank you, I just read it, very intresting article, I agree with all of it. I have actually believed those things for years, and no man taught me them. Walking alone, you then must learn alone. Not that theres anything wrong with that, you learn directly from the Spirit, with no interference or meddling from men. But that gets lonely after awhile.
