- ecclesia in Rev.
- seals
- trumpets
- bowls
- thunders
- forgive 7×70
- forgive same person 7 times in one day
- forgive same person 7 times in one day
- demons of Mary Magdalene
- 7 other demons will replace the one
- 7th hour the fever left
- Jacob’s 7 years for Rachel then 7 more
- 7 men of good report
- pharoh’s dream of cows then grain
- THE STARS IN HIS RIGHT HAND
