30, 60, and 100 Fold Fulfillment

I know that most are familar with the thought that the number 3 shows divine
completion or resurrection. And why is that?

Two straight lines cannot possibly enclose any space. Three lines are required to form a plane figure ...length, breadth, and height are necessary to form a solid. And three is the symbol of the cube, or that which has solid contents, just as two is the symbol of the square. So three stands for that which is solid, real, substantial, complete, and entire.

[Here is something very interesting to do: draw a box or a cube, and then fold down each of its sides, and you will amazingly find that it forms a cross.....the cross embraces all dimensions, the heighth, width, and depth of God's love for his creation. Also it was the Holy of Holies that third innermost section of the tabernacle that was the perfect cube in measurement....the cross was embedded as the heart of the tabernacle as well as Solomon's temple.]

Everything that is considered to be complete is marked with the number three.

God's attributes are: omniscience(all knowing), omnipresence(everywhere present), and omnipotence (all powerful).

Spirit = I Am
Soul = I Am Conscious
Body = I Appear

What completes time: past, present, and future.

Thought, word and deed, the sum of our abilities.

Good, better and best, our knowledge of qualities.

Matter consists of the mineral, vegetable, and animal kingdom.

Noah's ark of salvation was three stories high and 300 hundred cubits long.

The Old Testment had a three-fold division referred to by Jesus himself as the Law, the Prophets, and the Psalms. [Luke 24:44 ...that everything written concerning Me in the Law of Moses and the prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled"...then he opened up their minds to understand the scriptures.]

Then there is the fullness of the Godhead: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

How about Christ as prophet, priest and king?

On the third day of creation the earth was caused to rise up out of the water, symbolical of resurrection life, just as Jesus' body (his earth) did not see corruption but was raised up on the third day and prophetically indicated that his corporate body would as well rise the third day.

Jesus told a parable about leaven being hidden in three measures of meal...we are that meal of three measures, body, soul and spirit....and he is the light that lights every man coming into this world. This "leaven" will eventually leaven the whole lump and God will be all, in all of every man's three measures.

There were three great feasts that completed the year that Israel was commanded to keep: Passover, Pentecost(Feast of Weeks), and Tabernacles.

There were three divisions of the tabernacle and the temple, Outer Court, Holy Place and Most Holy Place.

There were three veils in the tabernacle; the outer veil to inner court, the inner veil to the Holy Place, and the innermost veil to the Holy of Holies. http://www.kingsolomonsastonishingtemplesecrets.org/

It takes two or "three" witnesses to validate truth. Here are a few examples of the threes:
Abraham, Isaac and Jacob

Saul David and Solomon

Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego

Peter, James and John (Jesus three witnesses to his transfiguration, Peter represented faith, and James represented hope and John represented love...these three elements are necessary to be activated in us to experience transfiguration and that is why, I beleive, that Jesus particularly chose to take them with him to the high mountain)

Three parts of Israel's journey: out of Egypt, thru the wilderness, and into the Promised Land.

Completeness of divine judgement:
Numbered, weighed and divided: "God hath NUMBERED thy kingdom and finished it. Thou are WEIGHED in the balances and found wanting. Thy kingdom is DIVIDED and given to the Medes and Persians.

Faith, Hope and Love, repeated five times as the gifts of grace.

Three-fold nature of temptation:
The lust of the flesh

The lust of the eyes.

The pride of life.

Eve fulfilled each when tempted:

Tree good for food,

Pleasant to the eyes,

To be desired to make one wise.

Man's three great enemies:
The World, the flesh and the devil.

The three witnesses: the Spirit, the water and the blood.

The Divine Being:
Which was, and which is, and which is to come.

His people are:
Loved, cleansed and crowned.

The good ground produces:
some 30 fold growth
some 60
and some 100

Salvation, Holy Ghost Baptism, and Fullness of the spirit

Justification, Sanctification, and Glorification.

30 - spirit salvation
60- soul salvation
100 - body salvation

The reason, I believe, that the number 60 is used, is because it is a double of the 30 showing that the experience of the Baptism of the Holy Ghost is the "double portion" anointing. The numbers in and of themselves are not what's important but what they point to.

Jesus knew that he was talking to people who were familar with the OT and they knew the story of Elijah and how Elisha received the double-portion anointing. Jesus was anointed with the spirit without measure(the 100-fold reality...Why do I say this? Because all power both in heaven and earth was given to him....in his glorification being able to know everything that God knows and and to do everything that God can do).... and the word plainly teaches us that the Baptism of the Holy Ghost experience is our earnest or downpayment and guarantee of acquiring the 100-fold abilities that Jesus had. It is what enables us to press on into all the fullness of God as Jesus. It is not a graduation ceremony, in other words, but is an initiation into learning to know his voice and be taught by his spirit and being empowered. Some dispute this, I know, saying that if you are filled with the spirit that that means you are 100% filled. But until more room is made in the "inn" ie, your consciousness, you are not prepared to receive and birth what you are not yet in the place to receive. The infillings of God's spirit is ongoing. We are saved, we are being saved and we shall yet be saved.

The disciples were told by Jesus to go into the upper room to be filled...if they did not go where they were instructed and had not been in that place, they would have missed his appearing. In fact, of the 500 he appeared to after his resurrection, only 120 were moved to obedience. As we learn to know his voice and are obedient to it, we are moved into places of greater capacity or receptivity.

The spirit acknowledges our completness in him as 100%, or He calls those things that are not as though they are, [are not what?...are not yet in full experiential manifestation in our earth, even though they exist in God's mind as completed] but our souls or understandings are continually being expanded in ever greater measures, and my body, my creation, groans [intense labor pains] inwardly for its redemption from earthly sensualities and the grave which will reveal our 100-fold manifestation as a fullgrown God Man....that new creation species completed in him spirit, soul and body.

We each have had individual experiences in our spirit, soul and posssibly bodies being caught up into the heavens, but I know in my spirit that there is a corporate birthing of a 100-fold people to appear in this earth. This is the birthing of God's Firstborn Corporate Son that Jesus, the singular son only typified. These sons will be in the full grown image of their Father and, therefore, will also be enabled to bring many sons to glory, for they are life-giving spirits.

It will be the Quantum Leap made by a people that transcends all earthly limitations who come and go between realms as the Spirit directs them....those who go in unto the Lord and minister unto him garbed in their linen garments of righteousness and then come out unto the people after doffing their linen and donning their woolen garments (sheepskins)to appear among the people or the rest of the sheep. Eke.44

(some of the above three's have been gleaned from Bullinger's facts on numbers in scripture)
