Lucky Number Three

So far so good, I spent three weeks in China (a complex society), Three days in Lagos, the commercial hub of the nation Nigeria, Three days in Kebbi state (in ea village in North-western state), and have now spent Three days in Abuja, the capital of Nigeria. 
Number Three they say, is a lucky number. Three in Chinese sounds similar to the character for "birth" and is considered a lucky number.

Remember, it was the Three wise men that visited Jesus when He was born. Moreover, Three crosses for His crucifixion, one for him and the other for the Two thieves. Don't forget, it's the Trinity in Christianity symbolizing Father, Son and Holyspirit.

Now, check this out: From the union of oneness, the duality (a reflection of Oneness) the Triad is established and then proceeds all of the other numbers. So, now you know how numbers came to being.

Three, a representation of Mind, Body and Soul is of a universal significance. It is interpreted in different forms - Past, Present and Future.

Now, for the records, you'll need either Three minutes or the multiplication of Three (30 minutes ) to read through further meanings and representation of the number Three that I have compiled for you.

Let's start with Geometric figures for instance:

Two straight lines cannot possibly enclose any space, or form a plane figure; neither can two plan surfaces form a solid. Three lines are necessary to form a plan figure; and three dimensions of length, breadth, and height, are necessary to form a solid. Hence three is the symbol of the cube--the simplest form of solid figure. As two is the symbol of the square, or plane contents (x2), so three is the symbol of the cube, or solid contents (x3).

Three, therefore, stands for that which is solid, real, substantial, complete, and entire.

All things that are specially complete are stamped with this number three.

God's attributes are three: omniscience, omnipresence, and omnipotence.

There are three great divisions completing time--past, present, and future.

Three persons, in grammar, express and include all the relationships of mankind.

Thought, word, and deed, complete the sum of human capability.

Three degrees of comparison complete our knowledge of qualities.

The simplest proposition requires three things to complete it; viz., the subject, the predicate, and the copula.

Three propositions are necessary to complete the simplest form of argument--the major premiss, the minor, and the conclusion.

Three kingdoms embrace our ideas of matter--mineral, vegetable, and animal.

When we turn to the Scriptures, this completion becomes Divine, and marks Divine completeness or perfection.

Three is the first of four perfect numbers.

Three denotes divine perfection;
Seven denotes spiritual perfection;
Ten denotes ordinal perfection; and
Twelve denotes governmental perfection.
Hence the number three points us to what is real, essential, perfect, substantial, complete, and Divine.

There is nothing real in man or of man. Everything "under the sun" and apart from God is "vanity." "Every man at his best estate is altogether vanity"
(Psa 139:5,11, 62:9, 144:4; Eccl 1:2,4, 2:11,17,26, 3:19, 4:4, 11:8, 12:8; Rom 8:20).

Three is the number associated with the Godhead, for there are "three persons in one God."

Three times the Seraphim cry, "Holy, Holy, Holy"-- one for each of the three persons in the Trinity (Isa 6:3). The living creatures also in Revelation 4:8.

Three times is the blessing given in Numbers 6:23, 24:--

"The LORD bless thee and keep thee (the Father);
The LORD make His face shine upon thee; and be gracious unto thee (the Son);
The LORD lift up His countenance upon thee, and give thee peace" (the Holy Spirit).

Perhaps, in three days I go port! Hahaha...

Thanks for reading this far. I hope you learnt something new and different by the way, today. And in Three days, your way shall be made plain for all of God's blessings.
