"Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks"
The Law of the Spirit set seven angels representing the angels of God consequentlly the only measurement for the body of Christ shall include them.
First these angels are there for a purpose. "Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?"(Heb.1.14,6) God presented Jesus Christ accordingly and commands,"when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.". The Covenant in seven days promise the believer both heavenly blessings as well as in his vile body. Of the latter we have this v.1 "Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered."(Ps.32.1) Of the other we have angels, "Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven."(Mt.18.10)
Seven days sets our antecedents tied to Alpha and St John in the isle of Patmos, "and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet," and when the holy city comes down, 'And I heard a great voice out of heaven.'(Rev.1.10;21.2)
Secondly these 7 angels representing those of his Father and they are in his right hand meaning wherever the angel of the Lord appears we have to understand the Spirit of Christ is presence so it is called the Angel of his presence. Consider the cherub with faming sword in the valley keeping the way and Jesus assures the church of Ephesus, "To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God."(Rev.2.1,7) This explains' "These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks."
