The Trinity in the Cross of Light Diamond

Its Supernatural Design and Spiritual Significance

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.

Custom designed 3rd year anniversary gifts will want to display God's attributes as they are three: omniscience, omnipresence, and omnipotence.

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.

Your 3rd year anniversary gifts should therefore point you to what is real, essential, perfect, substantial, complete, and Divine. See our designs 'Embraced' and 'Divine Presence' for your 3rd year anniversary gifts. For a list of traditional wedding gifts click here.

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); trinity pendant

  • 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).

Each of these three blessings is two-fold, so that there are two members in each, while the name Jehovah occurs three times. This marks the blessing as Divine in its source. No merit drew it forth; grace was its origin and peace was its result.

 

As we have in the number one the sovereignty of the one God; and in two the second person, the Son, the great Deliverer; so in "three" we have the third person, the Holy Spirit, marking and completing "the fullness of the Godhead." This word "fullness" is remarkable, occurring only three times, and in connection with the Three Persons of the Trinity:

  • Ephesians 3:19, "The fullness of God.

  • Ephesians 4:13, "The fullness of Christ."

  • Colossians 2:9, "The fullness of the Godhead."

The "fullness" was manifested visibly in Christ, and is communicated by the Holy Spirit, for it is a fullness of which we receive by His mighty power (John 1:16).
