#3-Holy Spirit-God in us, Righteousness, Purity, Power of God

Example verses

Following are some example verses that have strong content pointing
to the theme of three:

The 3,333rd Bible verse in the third book is an especially strong example
for the theme of number three.

Leviticus 20:14 states, “If there is a
man who marries a woman and her mother, it is immorality; both he and
they shall be burned with fire, so that there will be no immorality in
your midst.”

The words immorality, burned, fire, immorality, and midst
are all strong theme words associated with number three.

The 30,333rd
verse and the sixty-sixth verse in James, at reference 3:13, is also
very strong in relationship to number three. It states,

James 3:13 “Who among you
is wise and understanding? Let him show by his good behavior his deeds
in the gentleness of wisdom.”

The phrase “three days” is found in sixty
verses, and the first is Genesis 30:36. The distance of three days journey
mentioned in this first use seems to imply references to three days in
other verses may also be about taking a similar action—that this is about
creating distance and a journey or preparation involved during this time
of waiting. One of the most well-known of these times of waiting is the
three days between Jesus’ crucifixion and His resurrection.

Genesis 30:36 “And he put a distance of three
days’ journey between himself and Jacob, and Jacob fed the rest of Laban’s
flocks.”

The Holy Spirit is God’s presence inside
us and is often related to things in us or things going in or out. Three
also speaks of our mind, heart, and soul.

is greatly THE REDEMPTION PATTERN AND NUMERIC MAP 222 dismayed….”

Matthew
5:3 says, “Blessed are the poor in spirit….”

Mark 1:3 says, “THE VOICE
OF ONE CRYING IN THE WILDERNESS….”

mouth, and tongue, and other metaphors reflecting the actions and presence
of the Holy Spirit.

every place, Watching the evil and the good.”

Genesis 3:7 says, “… the
eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew they were naked.”

32:3 says, “Then the eyes of those who see will not be blinded, And the
ears of those who hear will listen.”

is associated with purity and righteousness and things that sanctify
us, purify us, enlighten, or teach us.

Leviticus 10:3 says, “…By those
who come near Me I will be treated as holy….”

Proverbs 17:3 says, “The
refining pot is for silver and the furnace for gold, But the LORD tests
hearts.”

Genesis 1:3 God said, “Let there be light….”

14:3 says, “You shall not eat any detestable thing.”

2 Kings 9:3 says,
“…take the flask of oil and pour it on his head and say…I have anointed
you king over Israel.’”

1 John 3:3 says, “And everyone who has this hope
fixed on Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.”

Leviticus 1:3 says,
“If his offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he shall offer it,
a male without defect; he shall offer it at the doorway of the tent of
meeting, that he may be accepted before the LORD.”

Matthew 28:3 says, “And
his appearance was like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow.”

Three is related to resurrection.

John 2:1 says,
“On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother
of Jesus was there….”

Luke 18:33 says, “…and after they have scourged
Him, they will kill Him; and the third day He will rise again.”

Acts
5:7 says, “Now there elapsed an interval of about three hours, and his
wife came in, not knowing what had happened.”

Luke 13:7 says, “And he
said to the vineyard-keeper, ‘Behold, for three years I have come looking
for fruit on this fig tree without finding any. Cut it down! Why does
it even use up the ground?’

Acts 10:16 says, “This happened three times,
and immediately the object was taken up into the sky.”

Daniel 1:5 says, “The king appointed…that
they should be educated three years, at the end of which they were to
enter the king’s personal service.”

Three is related to majesty, greatness,
and power.

Psalm 95:3 says, “For the LORD is a great God
And a great King above all gods.” Jonah 3:3 says, “Now Nineveh was an
exceedingly great city, a three days’ walk….”

ascend into the hill of the LORD? And who may stand in His holy place?”
