Here is the last segment of that verse from the Byzantine Majority text. ἔχον κέρατα ἑπτὰ καὶ ὀφθαλμοὺς ἑπτά, ἅ εἰσιν τὰ ἑπτὰ πνεύματα τοῦ θεοῦ ἀποστελλόμενα εἰς πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν. Would you like me to translate it for you?
I can read English.

Then I fail to see why you are having such a problem with this one simple verse. The word holy simply is not there. The text very plainly defines the terms for us.

They can only be holy or unholy.

True or false?

If I say to you the Spirit of God.

It is a given it is holy

I do not have to say to you the holy Spirit of God.

The question is not whether the Spirit is holy, of course he is holy. The question is, what is the seven spirits he is talking about. He is not talking about the Holy Spirit.

First of all, I am not going to play these silly "yes or no" games. Secondly, what on earth does this have to do with the text in question?

Explain this to me. Was this a real lamb? Was it dead?
Neither. That's Jesus -- the Passover Lamb, the sacrificial lamb, and the scapegoat. But he doesn't bleat.

Also, interesting thing I found about the horns? Don't think animal horns. That's what they call the radiating rays of light coming out of the sun -- horns. Pretty cool. Don't know what seven of them were nor seven eyeballs, but it's shiny not stabby.

​How come you can not believe it as it is written word for word?
Is it because you lack the faith in God?

To believe He has seven Spirits that are Holy?
Show where it says holy? How come you do believe something that's NOT there?

Isaiah 11:2
And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord;

1 Corinthians 12:7-11
[SUP]7 [/SUP]But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.
[SUP]8 [/SUP]For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
[SUP]9 [/SUP]To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
[SUP]10 [/SUP]To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:
[SUP]11 [/SUP]But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.

God's golden oil from His 2 witnesses (Word and Spirit) feed the 7 lamps, aka 7 eyes aka 7 spirits of the Lord.

All 7 spirits are of the One Holy Spirit. :)

You are contending that the seven spirits are the Holy Spirit.

The Text says, "And there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God;" ..."As for the mystery of the seven stars which you saw in My right hand, and the seven golden lamp stands: the seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lamp stands are the seven churches."

You simply are not saying what the text says.
