The Seven (7) Spirits/ By Walter Bright
The seven Spirits who are before His throne speak to the perfection
and completion of the Holy Spirit.
John uses an Old Testament description of the Holy Spirit.
The idea of the seven Spirits quotes from the Old Testament.
Isaiah 11:2 describes seven aspects of the Holy Spirit:
1/. The Spirit of
the LORD
2/. The Spirit of
wisdom
3/. Understanding
4/. The Spirit of
counsel
5/. Might
6/. The Spirit of
knowledge
7/. Fear of the
Lord
It isn’t that there are seven different spirits of God,
rather the Spirit of the LORD has these characteristics and He has them all in
fullness and perfection.
