Thus we can understand parts of the Bible by looking to passages that have the same words or ideas in them. 1 Corinthians 2:10-14Īs Christians, we have been blessed with God’s Spiritual influence to teach us His Word. But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth comparing spiritual things with spiritual. Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. In it were seven lamps that John describes: “are the seven Spirits of God.” But what are these seven Spirits? This is when it is important to remember God’s own instructions on how to study the Bible:īut God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. In the verse above, He describes Himself as “he that hath the seven Spirits of God.” In Chapter 4 of Revelation, John, called up to Heaven by God, is given access to view the throne room of God. In the Book of Revelation, Jesus Christ dictates seven letters to the Apostle John. 5And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God. 4 And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment and they had on their heads crowns of gold. 3 And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald. 2 And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne. Revelation 4:1 After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter. “And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God” - Jesus Christ, speaking to the Apostle John in Revelation 3:1
