Chuck Missler said that probably no one knows all the sevens in Revelation. I am sure he's right. I wrote a Python script to do a little exploration. Here's the result. If you find it interesting, you can paste it into a topic. I checked several of these against Swordsearcher phrase search and got seven so I assume they are all OK. You can see some overlap if you start with the five word phrases.

Bill, you're doing a whole lot more than I ever think to do with the search capabilities. Can you share how you got those results? I'm sure I can learn something from it. Thanks.

I didn't do it with SS. I used Python to create phrases from each word in Revelation plus the next 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 words. Then I searched Revelation for each phrase and counted the occurrences. If there were 7 occurrences I added that phrase to a list.

The script can search any range in the Bible for any number of word phrases for any number of occurrences. I having a lot of fun with it.

I also cataloged all the 3 word phrases in the entire Bible that occur more than once. There are 93,208 of them.

OK, my bad. Guess I presumed you used SS.

So then my question becomes, with all the recent upgrades to the search features of 6, could you perform that search with it?

No. You would have to search each word in Revelation to see if it occurred 7 times. Then make a list.
 
Did you search for any 7 word phrases or just 1-4. I don't use Python... is this the program you are referring to? (http://www.python.org/) How difficult is it?

The program is written in Python. You shouldn't need Python to run it. The program is called pyBible. It does other thing too but it's not elegant. You can download it here if you are interested. It's provided as is ...

http://sites.google.com/site/wsbones/pyBible.zip?attredirects=0

It's a zip file. Unzip all the files to the same directory and run b.exe

Here's the way it looks to run the program to search for 7 word phrases in Revelation. When it wants an input, type in the same thing that I did.

Double click on b.exe and you should see the following:
