The symbolism of the numbers in the Bible (Part 3)
The number 3 expresses what is at the top when it is a repetition. Praise addressed to God three times means a superlative expression of this divine quality: “Holy, holy, holy is Jehovah God, the Almighty, who was and who is and who is coming” (Revelation 4:8).
The number 3, which follows the number 2, means the maximum in action, the symbolizing 2, the minimum required, in a testimony procedure, for example: “But if he does not listen, take along with you one or two more, so that on the testimony of two or three witnesses every matter may be established” (Matthew 18:16).

Jehovah God Uses His Son Jesus Christ As The Only Way To Obtain Everlasting Life (John 14:6)
Faith in the sacrifice of Christ will enable us to obtain everlasting life (John 3:16,36)
Faith in the sacrifice of Christ will allow the great crowd to come out from the great tribulation and have everlasting salvation without dying (Revelation 7:9–17). The ransom of the sacrifice of Christ will allow the heavenly resurrection and the earthly resurrection. The blessings of the sacrifice of Christ will allow the healing and rejuvenation of the great crowd that will come out of the great tribulation.
Christian baptism is an expression of faith in the sacrifice of Christ (Matthew 28:19,20)
According to the Bible the process leading to baptism is very simple. However, according to Matthew 28:19,20, it is the training of the disciple of Christ after his baptism that can take much longer.
All Christians (men and women) must reach Christian Spiritual Maturity in order be teachers of the word of God in the congregation and out of the congregation.
Faithful Christians (men and women, with heavenly or earthly hope), having spiritual circumcision of the heart, are obliged to take part of the unleavened bread and to drink from the cup (John 6).
We must preach the good news of the kingdom in order to save lives (Matthew 24:14)
How did Jesus Christ preach? How did he train his disciples? The preaching of the good news is within the reach of all faithful Christians (experienced or not). Preaching is a simple public proclamation that does not require a great deal of biblical knowledge, but a great deal of faith, enthusiasm and love for our neighbor. Preaching is different from more elaborate biblical teaching.
