    Q&A "The right hand of him"

    Q:It is plain that as with the seven stars the book with seven seals is in the right hand. Does it mean each of the multiple sevens in heaven are addressed to the seven churches on the earth?

    A: Yes. The Law has already set in motion and the set number are preserved as first fruits while the problem is how to equip the seven churches remaining on the earth from harm's way. With the man child being caught up to the throne (Re.12:6), for understanding the events bearing upon the woman left out in the wilderness the vision of Ezekiel beginning with chapter 47serves a rich source to place history of the mingled people. From the messages to the seven churches it is evident that they are the mingled people yet to coalesce into distinct groups. Christ's warning to the church at Ephesus is timely so he warns, 'Remember, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly' .Thus with all seven churches. There are Jews ("and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan", proselytes and Christians. Before the onsetting of great tribulation they were to set right their lives and make the election sure. The 144,000 seen with the Lamb on mount Sion is same as what the seven stars signify. The Law of the Spirit presents them as reserved for adoption and it is in heaven. "According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:/ Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will.(Ep.1:3-4)

    From the above it is clear that 12x12x1000 is not a numerical value but the body of saints redeemed from the earth. A remnant shall be added to them And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name"(Re.15:2)
