Quote:The savior of the Jews was a warrior, and Jesus was not that.
Jesus first coming was as a sacrificial lamb( John1:29).
Jesus second coming will be as a Lion (Rev 5:5)

You're taking reading between the lines much too literally. Also, you'd expect just a little continuity between the first and second lines of the bible. And by the way Void is an adjective (Descriptor) that means "Completely Empty". Which I'm sure means no fossils.
Proverbs 10:20- The tongue of the just is as choice silver: the heart of the wicked is little worth.
Another comparison to actual purity, but not the process (Or number of times required) or ever suggesting that the word needed purifying. This does not support the 7 versions theory. After looking, it doesn't even to seem to apply to "the word", but "The tongue of the just" which I mean to take "Just people"
When you add context:
19 In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: but he that refraineth his lips is wise.
20 The tongue of the just is as choice silver: the heart of the wicked is little worth.
21 The lips of the righteous feed many: but fools die for want of wisdom.
It becomes clear that Proverbs 10:20 isn't talking about the word itself.
The KJV Bible also took 7 years to translate. God likes the number 7.
John Chapter 4:25-27
25 The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.
26 Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.
27 And upon this came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why talkest thou with her?
No mention of Jews.
Luke Chapter 23:33-35
33 And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the other on the left.
34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.
35 And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God.
No mention of Jews.
Not sure why Luke Chapter 12:51 is even relevent?
People in Vegas like 7 too. (I personally prefer 21). Dare I ask, aside from mathematical coincidences how we know god likes 7?
Edit: Are you just closing your eyes and picking at random now? Do you not expect anybody here to check your one and only source? You know what, I think I'm going to start quoting the book of Mormon to you.
I reject your reality and substitute my own!
