One of the interesting features of Hebrew and Greek is that in both written languages there are no numeric characters.  Where we have numbers and letters, they have only letters.  So, in each language the letters are also used as numbers.  In a small way we do the same thing in English. For example, is "O" a zero or a letter in the alphabet?  Is "l" a one or a small L?  When they are used, the context tells us which is which and we have no problem understanding it.  The same goes for Hebrew and Greek.  They knew when they were writing numbers and when they were writing letters.

But the interesting thing is that when a word is written, it also has a numeric equivalent.  For example, the word "Jesus" in Greek is "iasous."  Since each letter has a numeric equivalent, we can add up each number and get a value.  The value is the gammatria.  Therefore, the gammatria of "Jesus" in Greek is 888 because i = 10, a = 8, s = 200, o = 70, u = 400, s = 200.  There are many interesting 'games' that can be played with this feature of Greek and Hebrew and much of it is absurd.  But, some of the numeric relationships are interesting.

 

1             THE NUMBER OF UNITY.

 

One God

 

Father. (Deuteronomy 6:4)  "Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one. (Ephesians 4:5) "one Lord, one faith, one baptism."

 

2             THE NUMBER OF DIVISION.

The Son who has two natures: human and divine.

 

There are 2 Testaments: the Old and New.

Man is Male and Female.

 

(Rom. 9)  speaks of two vessels: one for honorable use and the other for dishonorable use.

 

Two types of people: Sheep and Goats.

 

There are two ages, this age and the age to come ( Matt. 12:32; 13:39,40,49; Mark 10:30.)

 

3             THE NUMBER OF DIVINE PERFECTION. The Trinity* consists of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

 

There are three qualities of the universe: Time, Space, and Matter. To exist (except for God), all three are required.

 

Each quality consists of three elements. Therefore, we live in a trinity of trinities.

- The triune qualities of universe are each three:

               

Time is one yet three:         Space is one yet three:        Matter is one yet three:

               

Past, Present, Future            Height, Width, Depth          Solid, Liquid, Gas

 

(Not 3 gods 1+1+1 =3 … But 1 God in three persons 1x1x1=1) *See notes at end explaining the Trinity…

               

If you are a trichotomist then man is made of three parts:

1. Body  

2. Soul      

3. Spirit

 

Human abilities are three:

 1. Thought          

2. Word 

3. Deed

                                                 

The divine attributes are three fold:   (God is :)            

1. Omniscient

2. Omnipresent

3. Omnipotent     

 

 

 

1. Love

2. Light

3. Spirit 

 

1. Holy

2. Righteous

3. Just

                                                 

Three bear witness (1 John 5:8):

 

 1. Spirit

2.  Water               

3. Blood

                                                 

Christ is Three Shepherds

1. The Good Shepherd (John 10:14-15) - speaking of His death

2. The Great Shepherd (Heb. 13:20) - speaking of His resurrection

3. The Chief Shepherd (1 Pet. 5:4) - speaking of His glory

 

                                                 

The Three appearances of Christ:

Past:  1. Has appeared (Heb. 9:26) to put away sin

Present:  2. Is appearing (Heb. 9:24) in the presence of God

Future:  3. Will appear (Heb. 9:28) to those who await Him

                                                 

 

The Father spoke from Heaven three times:

1. - Matt. 3:17, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."

2. - Matt. 17:5, "This is My beloved Son, with whom I am well-pleased; listen to Him."

3. - John 12:28, "I have both glorified it [the Father's name], and will glorify it again."

                                                 

Both the Tabernacle and the Temple consisted of three parts:

                The Court              The Holy place    The Sanctuary

 

Regarding the Tabernacle:

                The Holy of Holies was a cube (10 cubits x 10 cubits x 10 cubits)

 

Regarding the Temple:

                The Holy of Holies was a cube (20 cubits x 20 cubits x 20 cubits)

                                                 

4             THE NUMBER OF CREATION - North, South, East, West; 4 Seasons. The 4th commandment is the first that refers to the earth. The 4th clause of the Lord's Prayer is the first that mentions the earth. The materials of the tabernacle were four and so were the coverings and the ornamentations.

 

5             THE NUMBER OF GRACE. Redemption. Israel came out of Egypt 5 in rank (Ex 13:18). David picked up 5 smooth stones to fight Goliath (1 Sam. 17:40). The Holy Anointing Oil was pure and composed of 5 parts (Ex. 30:23-25).

 

6             THE NUMBER OF MAN: Man was created on the 6th day. Man labors 6 days only. The Serpent was created on the 6th day. The 6th commandment is "Thou shalt not murder." Six words are used for man: Adam, ish, Enosh, gehver, anthropos, anar. Also, 6 x 6 = 36. 36 + 35 + 34 + 33 + 32 . . . 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 666. 666 is the number of the antichrist. This means that the name of the antichrist in Greek adds up to 666. This is a mockery of the Trinity.

 

7             THE NUMBER OF SPIRITUAL PERFECTION. Seven days in a week. Seven colors in the spectrum. Seven of the 10 commandments begin with the word "not." There are 7 seals, 7 trumpets, 7 parables in Matthew, and 7 promises to the churches. There are 7 "eternals" in Hebrews which are: A priest for ever (1:6); Eternal salvation (1:9); Eternal judgment (6:2); eternal redemption (9:12); eternal spirit (9:14); eternal inheritance (9:15); and everlasting covenant (13:20). Jesus said 7 things on the cross: 1) Luke 23:34 "Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing." And they divided up his clothes by casting lots; 2) Luke 23:43 Jesus answered him, "I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise"; 3) Matthew 27:46 About the ninth hour Jesus cried out in a loud voice, "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?" -- which means, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"; 4) John 19:26 "When Jesus saw his mother there, and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to his mother, "Dear woman, here is your son"; 5) John 19:28 "Later, knowing that all was now completed, and so that the Scripture would be fulfilled, Jesus said, "I am thirsty." 6) John 19:30 "When he had received the drink, Jesus said, "It is finished." With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit"; and 7) Luke 23:46 "Jesus called out with a loud voice, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit." When he had said this, he breathed his last." "Hallelujah" occurs 28 times or 4 x 7. "Hosanna" occurs 7 times. "Milk" occurs 49 times or 7 x 7. "Abaddon" occurs 7 times. "After the order of Melchizedek" occurs 7 times.

 

8             THE NUMBER OF NEW BEGINNINGS. 8 people on Noah's Ark (2 Pet. 2:5); circumcision on 8th day (Gen. 17:12); God made 8 covenants with Abraham

 

9             THE NUMBER OF JUDGMENT. There are 9 greek words derived from the root word meaning judgment = dikay. The following words each occur 9 times in the Bible: abussos (bottomless pit); asebee (ungodly); aselgeia (lasciviousness); and astrapee (lightning). The gifts of the spirit are 9 in number (1 Cor. 12:8-10): the word of wisdom, the word of knowledge, faith, healing, miracles, prophecy, discerning of spirits, tongues, and interpretation of tongues.

 

10           THE NUMBER OF DIVINE PERFECTION. There are 10 commandments (Ex. 20); 1/10 of your income is a tithe; the were 10 plagues on Egypt (Ex. 9:14ff); 10 x 10 silver sockets formed the foundation of the Tabernacle (Ex 38:27); There are 10 "I AM"'s spoken by Jesus in John: 1) I am the Bread of Life (6:35); 2) I am the Bread of Life which came down from heaven (6:41); 3) I am the Living Bread (6:51); 4) I am the Light of the world (8:12); 5) I am One that bears witness of Myself (8:18); 6) I am the Door of the sheep (10:7,9); 7) I am the Good Shepherd (10:14); 8) I am the Resurrection and the Life (14:6); 9) I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life (11:25); and 10) I am the True Vine (15:1,5).

 

12           THE NUMBER OF GOVERNMENTAL PERFECTION. There were 12 tribes of Israel; 12 Apostles, 12 foundations in the heavenly Jerusalem; 12 gates; 12 pearls; 12 angels. The measurements of New Jerusalem are 12,000 furlongs or stadia, while the wall will be 144 (12 x 12) cubits (Rev. 21:16-17).

 

40           THE NUMBER OF PROBATION OR TRIAL. The Israelites wandered for 40 years (Deut. 8:2-5). Moses was on the mount for 40 days (Exodus 24:18); 40 days of Jonah and Nineveh (Jonah 3:4). Jesus was tempted for 40 days (Matt. 4:2).

 

153        In John 21:11, after the resurrection the disciples caught 153 fish. The word fish in Greek is 'ixthus' which has a numerical equivalent of 1224, or 8 x 153. Remember, which is Jesus Christ is 888. 153 people received a blessing from Jesus in the four gospel (not counting the 5000 and examples like that).

 

 

 

 

* Trinity…

 

The Trinity

 

The reason why many today using man’s wisdom cannot understand the things pertaining to God, including The Trinity doctrine, is explained in scripture.

 

“13 Which things we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth ; comparing spiritual with spiritual.

14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” -1 Corinthians 2:13-14

 

So using the Bible, we shall try to discern the spiritual things, namely what it reveals about God and the nature of the Godhead which man has named the Trinity, and though the word ‘Trinity’ does not appear in scripture the concept of God expressed as such does as we shall see.

 

As Christians there are 3 important points revealed in scripture that need to be established:

 

1. There IS a God

 

Infact, the bible states that those who deny that there is a God are fools.

 

Psalm 14:1states:  “The fool has said in his heart there is no God”

 

       2. There is only ONE God

 

God states this fact Himself in Isaiah 45:5-6

 

“5 I am the LORD , and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me. 6 That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none else.”

 

Note the next verse stating ONE God yet also notice God Mentioned 3 times where we are told He is One LORD:

 

“Hear O Israel; The LORD our GOD is one LORD:” –Deuteronomy 6:4

 

Now, if there is only ONE GOD  some may ask, why did God command in  Exodus 20:2-3 to have no other gods before Him? To answer this we need to consult scripture again. So lets look at 1 Chronicles 16:25-26 which will establish my 3^rd point…

 

       3. All other gods are FALSE

 

Lets read the verse in Chronicles:

 

“25 For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised: he is also to be feared above all other gods. [ now if we were to stop here we would not know what God means when He speaks of other gods. So lets read the next verse to see the context of this verse.]

“26 For all the gods of the people are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.”

We see the other gods are idols.  (The 1^st and 2^nd of The 10 Commandments are warning against them!)

(Throughout scripture and history people are seen worshipping stone, gold, wood and whatever else they could find to make their own gods in their own image or one that suits them. Some were of animals, like the Gold Calf, or in the image of men like the Greek and Roman gods or a mixture like Dagon, national god of the Philistines which had the lower torso of a fish and the upper body of a man.)

 

 

So, if we put these 3 points together we have established so far that from a Biblical Point of View:

 

1. There is a God,   2. There is only one God,   3.  All other gods are idols and are therefore false.

 

Keeping all this in mind lets try to make sense of the Trinity now. Let’s explore the tri-une nature of God.

 

The best place to start is at the beginning. The book of Genesis.

 

Genesis 1:26

 

“And God said let US make man in OUR  image after OUR  likeness:”

Note here God speaks of himself 3 times in plural. Who was He talking to? Angels perhaps? NO!

As we have seen, usually the answer lies in the next verse, so lets look at verse 27,

It tells us who made mankind, in whose image we were made, and also note once again this time how many times God is mentioned here , 3 times! This time He is rendered singular yet appears 3 times in the same position in the next verse after the act of creating.

 

27 “So God  created man in HIS  own image, in the image of God created HE  him; male and female created HE them.”

 

Compare:  Verse 1  (1. US  2. US  3. OUR)

                  Verse 2 (1. HIS  2. HIS  3. HE)

 

By putting these two verses together we can see the composite unity of God. ( Another example can be found in Gen. 11:7 )

This composite unity in Genesis is shown to be Triune in nature and is revealed as such in the New Testament book of 1 John:

 

1 John 5:7  states:

 

“There are THREE  that bear record in heaven, the FATHER , the WORD , and the HOLY GHOST and these THREE  are ONE”.

 

It is no wonder so-called anti-Trinitarian bible scholars love to attack this verse because it shows the Triune nature of God!

 

Let me make it clear however that the Bible does not claim there is 3 gods in one, as Mormons believe, but rather ONE God who reveals himself as three distinct persons.

 

Many groups like JW’s, Christadelphians etc… ridicule this by saying  1+1+1=3.

Because these groups have reasoned out an infinite God in their own finite minds instead of believing what their Bible says they have failed to grasp the correct mathematical formula and can not see their error.

 

God is NOT Tri-plex  (1+1+1=3) rather…

 

God is  Tri-une (1 x 1 x 1=1)

 

The Trinity doctrine in mathematically sound and it is reflected in all true science in an incredible way.

 

There is a ‘three-in-oneness’ throughout creation which clearly reflects the triune nature of all the physical universe.

The Apostle Paul knew this also, when he wrote in Romans 1:19-20

 

“Because that which maybe known of God is manifest in them, for God hath shewed it unto them, for the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse”

 

This is a very important verse and is often glossed over, yet it holds some amazing revelations about the nature of God that can be easily over looked.

 

 

 

“Because that which maybe known of God [things pertaining to God that we are capable of knowing] is manifest in them [‘them’ being mankind, examine the nature of man made in God’s image, we are triune beings, we have a spirit, soul and body -1 Thes. 5:23], for God hath shewed it unto them [God has allowed us to see and understand certain things if we look at his creation) for the invisible things of Him [‘Him’ God] from the creation of the world are clearly seen [this may seem contradictory  ‘invisible things’ from creation being ‘clearly seen’ however when we look at the structure of the universe and matter itself we see everything made up of ‘ATOMS’, ‘Molecules’, ‘Elements’, these are invisible to the naked eye but when seen through a microscope they can be seen and the Triune nature of God can be seen] being understood by the things that are made, [namely all things in creation] EVEN HIS ETERNAL POWER AND GODHEAD  [even HIS (God’s) eternal power AND GODHEAD, the Trinity, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit] so that they [mankind] are without excuse”

 

So how does the very creation , the physical universe reveal the triune nature of the Godhood?

 

Consider this:

 

The very reality of our physical universe consists of a TRI – UNITY.

 

SPACE , MATTER,  TIME

(All 3 of these make up the whole of creation and are inseparable!)

 

Each of these 3 have a triune nature as well:

 

SPACE – has 3 dimensions, Length, Width, and Depth

[All are equal to each other in that if one was missing the other two would lack meaning]

 

MATTER – is a crucial part of the universe, and is triune in nature because it is revealed through Energy, Motion and Phenomenon and consists of: Solid , Liquid , and Gas

[Nothing exists that does not have one of these; each is distinctively separate yet each is apart of the whole; not one exists without the other two!]

 

TIME – has 3 parts to it : Past, Present, and Future

[The Future is the invisible source of TIME which is made real moment by moment in the Present and the Past merely progresses from the Present – is gone yet still continues to influence us!

 

We see that Space, Matter and Time are the triune nature of creation.

 So Creation is Space made visible in Matter and is experienced in and through Time!

 

All of creation has God’s triune fingerprint!

 

As was mentioned before we human beings are made in the image of God (Gen. 1:27)

 

We have a Spirit, Soul, and Body. Our physical body pertains to the physical world and we dwell in it until death, Our Soul is our mind and free will, it is us, it is the connection between the Body and Spirit, and the Spirit is that which allows us to communicate with our creator, God. When mankind fell, that spiritual connection between mankind and God was broken, and man died spiritually, this effected the  physical body of man as well, man began to age and die, and the soul was unable to commune with God until Christ came to reunite mankind with his creator and make those who accepted God’s remedy for sin spiritually alive once again to commune with God.

 

Many assume the Soul and Spirit are the same, however the Bible shows that these are separate parts of a  human being, as the body is to them, all 3 of these make us whole or complete. While we are not spiritually alive, we always feel incomplete until we fill that emptiness with something, most times we get temporary satisfaction because we keep filling the spiritual void with the wrong thing. It is Christ however who spiritually quickens us and God’s spirit dwells in us and makes us spiritually alive, then we are whole and complete and can have a relationship with our creator.

 

“ And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly ; I pray God your whole SPIRIT and SOUL and BODY be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

                                                                                                           -1  Thessalonians 5:23

 

It is totally possible Mathematically, Scientifically and Spiritually to believe that this TRI UNIVERSE was created by a TRIUNE God!!!

 

The Trinity reveals something unique about God’s nature. (Scripture reveals that the very nature of God is love, as a matter of fact the Bible says God is love!

 

“He that loveth not, knoweth not love; For God IS love.”   - 1 John 4:8

 

And further on in verse 16   it is repeated  “God is love”

 

There was a point before time itself when no created beings existed.

If God was singular ‘EL’ there would have been no love.

But God is ‘ELOHIM’ plural so He has never been alone.

Love has always been present because love can only exist in context of a relationship!

That is why GOD IS LOVE!

 

Understanding the Trinity is essential for Christians.

 

The Bible shows there is a right way to pray and reveals the Trinity:

We are to pray to the Father in the name of the Son Jesus Christ and allow the Holy Ghost to guide our prayer!

 

When we read in the book of Revelation we hear the angelic creatures around the throne of God giving triune worship and praise to the triune God:

 

“And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, [1] HOLY,  [2] HOLY, [3] HOLY

                                    [1] LORD, [2] GOD, [3] ALMIGHTY

                      Which  [1] Was (past)  and [2] Is (present) and [3] Is To Come (future)”
