"They don't own me.....my temple lies in my own heart...they can destroy my body but, they can't kill me..death has no hold on me<g>"

Rev 2:17 ...To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it. (KJV)

Rev. 20.6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power....(KJV)

Northrup Frye and William Blake have much, much more to contribute on the foregoing theme!

Blake:
To see a world in a grain of sand (Fractals anyone?)
And heaven in a wild flower
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour.

Frye:
these moments of "inspiration", which can hardly mean anything except the coming or breaking through of the spirit from a world beyond time...it is the sum of these moments, which have taken up considerably less than an hour of my 78 years, which caused me to spend the better part of those 78 years writing about their implications.

Oh, and then there is "seven",

Seven (no.) in reality symbolizes the union even the unity of God with his creation, the indissoluble relation of the creation of God: and consequently in this sense it is clearly the number of totality.

1. Image of God: (Rev 1:14-17)...7 features
2. That which God created: (Gen. 1.1-2.3)...7 days
3. God's Commandments: (Exo 20:1-17) ... 7 subjects...but you'll need to think about this one)
4. Reward for following commandments:.(Rev 2 & 3) ...7 churches
5. Wisdom and Understanding: (1Kings4:32-33)
6. Consequences if commandments not followed: (Rev 2:8) (see also Rev 22:15)
7. Totality and Perfection. (words spoken by Christ while on the cross)
(i) Matt 27:46
(ii) Lk.23:34
(iii) Lk. 23:34)
(iv) John 19:26-27
(v) John 19:28
(vi) Lk.23:46
(vii) John 19:30

And then of course we have:

"ICHTHUS" meaning fish (a powerful symbol in Christianity)...a "7" letter acronym for Jesus Christ Son of God Saviour)

Note: As this thread is about Armageddon in an economic sense, this is my last public post on this thread on the Armageddon theme in a philosphical/metaphorical sense.
