Is this question and answer pair correct?

Question

It make no difference to the ultimate truth, of course, since it is merely of the Bible and the Koran, but because the answer links the two and was chosen best by the questioner, I'm curious to hear some opinions...

Who are the "Seven Spirits" of God?

"And I beheld, and lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth." (Revelation 5:6)

forth into all the earth.

1. Prophet Adam
2. Prophet Noah
3. Prophet Abraham
4. Prophet David
5. Prophet Solomon
6. Prophet Jesus

7-Seven is completion which actually is symbolic of all the

Answer 1

ahaha, most folk will have a tendency to avoid such as that.
That is a difficult question and answer combination.

Although that sounds more likely than not, versus spirits, spooks and other assorted contrivances. Just because it is written that does not of necessity mean it is true in reality. Or is it just more myths and legends, perhaps. It is most ironic that out of that list, the one that can be documented as to have actually existed is Muhammad.

Moses, Jacob, Isaac and Ishmael ( Muhammad ) are answered in Abraham.

The Bible Deuteronomy 34: 4 - 6
Then the LORD said to him, "This is the land I promised on oath to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob when I said, 'I will give it to your descendants ' I have let you see it with your eyes, but you will not cross over into it." And Moses the servant of the LORD died there in Moab, as the LORD had said . He buried him in Moab, in the valley opposite Beth Peor, but to this day no one knows where his grave is.

The Bible Genesis 17: 20
And as for Ishmael, I have heard you: I will surely bless him; I will make him fruitful and will greatly increase his numbers. He will be the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation.

No masters, either God is one or God does not exist.

Answer 2

No, they are not.

The following passages come from a book I read that explains ALL of Revelation in simplicity and plainness:

The correct translation of the verse is this:

5:6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and the four beasts, stood the elders and a Lamb as if it were to be slain, having twelve horns and twelve eyes, which are the twelve servants of God sent forth into all the earth.


Here John sees the angels (represented as “the four beasts”) waiting for the preordained mission of Christ to be given and acknowledged by all those who were created by God and given free will to choose for themselves whom they would follow. Many of the “elders,” who were among the free-willed spirits, and who had proven themselves worthy to serve in a position of authority, waited also for Christ to be appointed by God and given power over our planets.

A lamb is the gentlest of all creatures. Though gentle in nature, in this instance, it is given horns to protect itself. Christ’s presence, teachings, and countenance are as gentle as a lamb:

Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. (Matthew 11:28–30)

Nevertheless, he stands as a protector (“twelve horns”) of the people under his authority, and knows and understands (“twelve eyes”) the people’s desires, and what is needed to bring them happiness. The prophets (“twelve servants”) to whom Christ gives knowledge and authority (“twelve eyes”), go throughout the earth and teach the people, and become, in essence, his mouth, his ears, and his eyes.

(See also Proverbs 22:12, II Chronicles 16:9, and Zechariah 4:10)

The peoples of the earth are figuratively represented throughout Revelation as the twelve tribes of Israel.

The number "twelve" represents all the people of the earth, and is used in Revelation 10:1, and in 12:1 in the same way.

Without reading the whole book, it is hard to understand this answer clearly, but the book is THE most amazing book on Revelation ever written. It puts all the other "guesses" about Revelation to open shame.
