20 Questions with Pastor Mike (Episode 11) 00:55:10 – 00:56:41

Responding to Olivia Hartland's question about the seven spirits of God in Revelation

Mike rejects a connection to Isaiah's sevenfold Spirit listing as a likely mismatch. He interprets the seven spirits of God as poetic/symbolic language for the Holy Spirit's universality and omniscience -- consistent with Revelation's use of seven (seven churches, seven eyes of the Lamb) as a number of completeness and perfection.
