Seems to me 7 has some significance in the Bible. Did God visit 7 years of pestilence down  on somebody and didn't some body have 7 sons. Wonder what the significance of 7 guests is? At least there are no invisible people on. I just don't understand how you can be invisible and yet register on the counter thing. Very curious.

Well off to bed I suppose. See you in the morning.

The whole Bible is replete with the numerical symbology of the number seven. There were seven seals to the book that is opened by the Lamb, which were indicating that it is completely or totally secure in these seals. No one could open it but God. Likewise, the seven trumpets are indicating the totality of God's judgments. From start to finish, when we reach seven, it is finished. Or in the seven vials which are the totality of the Wrath of God that is to be poured out upon the earth. All these things show this spiritual signification of the number. Even when Mary Magdalene was healed:

Luke 8:2
"And certain woman, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called magdalene, out of whom went Seven Devils."

Mark 16:9
"Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, He appeared unto mary Magdalene, out of whom went Seven devils."

Jesus cast out of her seven devils to signify the totality of the rule of Satan in her. When we are saved, we are made free from Satan where he no longer has rule over us. The number seven signified the total removal of Satan from within her, and now God would make His abode there. And what agreement has the Temple of God with the temple of idols? None. Satan is totally cast out. The Number seven illustrates his total rule in the unsaved. But by Grace of God he is totally cast out when we become Saved.

I "googled" it, of course!

It is amazing what you can get from "google!" I may be one of the best "googlers" around.... Ooohhh, now we only have 6 guests.... Let's see what it says about the number 6.....

The "six" was the length of time that God assigned Himself to work to create the world, and it is the length of time He assigns to Man to work in this world. That's an important fact. We can see this representation of the number six "for working" holds true right down the line as it's not only illustrated in six days, but in "six years" as well. A consistent use of the number throughout scripture as an illustration of Work. For example, we read that God had made a Covenant with the children of Israel, and that bondmen were to serve or work six years. Yet on the seventh year, were to be set free.

I hate to be the stator of the obvious but something or someone is killing the site. It is so slow. I guess since its 5:00 the site knows its quitting time.

^ those familiar with computer viruses will appreciate my play on words there. haha.

Oh and I changed my signature. Any of you remember inspector gadget?... awesome!
