Powerful Scriptural Triads - Part 1

"Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and brother of James, To those who are called, beloved in God the Father and kept for Jesus Christ: May mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you." - Jude 1:1-2 ESV

Two triads. You are called, beloved and kept. Secondly, we are given mercy, peace and love as a multiplied provision.

The triads in scripture are very powerful. God Is triune. Time is also (past, present and future). Space on the surface appears that way (length, depth and height).

"Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one. You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might." - Deuteronomy 6:4-5 ESV

God is united in oneness but we perceive three aspects or dimensions of who He Is and love Him out of our triune nature (heart, soul and mind).

Can you recall some scriptural triads?

How about this one?

"And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, 'Now the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Christ have come, for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses them day and night before our God. And they have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they loved not their lives even unto death.' " - Revelation 12:10-11 ESV

We overcome in three dimensions.

"...and since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near." - Hebrews 10:21-25 ESV

Draw near. Hold fast the confession. Consider how to stir one another to love and good works.

Very powerful.
