I was wondering if the Holy Spirit has 7 distinct jobs and wondered if there is a correlation to the 7 churches. God the Father has many names but is One, as the Trinity is One. We’ll find out when we can see through the fog. I’m overloaded as it is.

Seven is the number of completion, so the “seven spirits” are one. There are seven churches because that is the complete set of churches. In binary, seven is 111, so a trinity of ones is complete, or one.

The Ein Sof manifests Himself in His creation as the Trinity, Father, Son, Holy Spirit as a consequence of how He created the Universe:

And He created His universe with three books (Sepharim), with text (Sepher) with number (Sephar) and with communication (Sippur).

The Universe is an accounting system. That is how we, as sinners, can be saved by believing in Jesus Christ so that His Righteousness is credited to our account.
