Revelation 7:11

And all the angels... — Translate, And all the angels were standing round the throne, and the elders, and the four living beings... saying, Amen. The great concourse of angels — those among whom there has been joy in heaven when a sinner has repented — now add their “Amen” to the cry of the redeemed, and then raise the seven-fold ascription of praise —

“Amen!
The blessing, and the glory, and the wisdom,

And the thanksgiving,

And the honour, and the power, and the strength,
(Is) unto our God Unto the ages of the ages.
Amen!”

The seven-fold form of the doxology, which implies a divine completeness, is appropriate to this vision, which shows us the close of the Church’s agony, and is in itself a slight indication that the view which would limit the seals to some short period of Church history is incorrect, as it is assuredly inadequate.
