This is why Nikola Tesla believed that the key to the entire universe is hidden in these three numbers, 36 and 9. This is pretty bold, even for Tesla. I mean, the man did help invent radio, remote control, the AC motor, and even wireless electricity. So when he says something like that, I think we're at least curious to know why Tesla not only believed 369 was special, but he structured his life around them with an almost unnatural intensity. He'd walk around a building 3
times before entering. He'd stay in hotel rooms only divisible by three. He used 18 napkins, which is 3 * 6, to wipe down his cutlery before eating. I mean, these are proper rituals and it sounds like he was very regimented. But for Tesla, it was deeper than that. It was sacred. For him. It was like these numbers tapped into something beyond logic. And here's where things get mega
insane. When you start digging into the mathematics and the geometry of these numbers three, six, and nine, they keep popping up in strange ways. Check this out. Like I said, when Tesla said, if mankind could understand the significance of three, six and nine half keys to the universe, Will you play that video for me, Jamie, and just count it as it goes. Just let it let it play. You'll see 123. And we know this is a magnet magnetism because it's expanding
in the center. Now you'll see 6 of these bonds and those colors going across. There is basically the periodic table 5-6. Yep. And then the last one comes in and now you have your 9. It's like they're not just in sequence, it's like they're outside the pattern, not part of the material loop, but floating above it somehow, a bit like an invisible framework holding everything together without being seen in nature. The number 9 subtly appears in ways that fascinated Tesla.
The structure of a sunflower seed, for instance, follows the Fibonacci sequence, which often loops back to 9 when reducing the numbers to a single digit. A human pregnancy lasts for about 9 months and we have 9 essential amino acids needed for survival. Even in time keeping. There are 24 hours in a day and 2 + 4 = 6, but broken into 3 segments of eight hours, 8 + 8 + 8 = 24 and 2 + 4 again equals 6.
Keep going deeper and the number 9 often re emerges in cycles of nature, sounds of frequencies, and even the geometry of the vortex patterns in water and the galaxies. While nine often gets the spotlight, Tesla also saw three and six as part of a triad of creation, interconnected forces that shaped everything from atoms to galaxies. In nature and science, the number three shows up everywhere. Atoms have three main components, protons, neutrons and electrons.
Light splits into three primary colors, red, green, blue, and stable structures like triangles are made of three sides. DNA's genetic code is red in triplets, called codons, which build the proteins essential for life. We experience time as past, present and future, which is a natural division into three parts. And our world has three dimensions, length, width and
height. Even the moon cycles through three main phases, new, full and Crescent, and Christians believe in the Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. This again echoes this sense of divine completeness. The number six also carries strong signals. Insects have 6 legs, snowflakes form with six fold symmetry and bees build hexagon shaped honeycombs, a perfect example of nature's efficient design. Carbon, the building block of life, has 6 protons, neutrons and electrons, enabling it to
form complex molecules. Human bodies often reveal 6 pack abs, which unfortunately I don't have one, highlighting that we have a natural muscular segmentation. And then of course, beyond the classic 5 senses, some additions recognize that there is a sixth sense of intuition. Sound frequencies and harmonic patterns often align with the multiples of three and six, further linking these numbers to the fabric of reality. So what was Tesla really
suggesting? He was claiming that we're only scratching the surface of three, 6:00 and 9:00, and they are part of some underlying secret code. So when he saw those numbers on a clock, on a receipt, a license plate, he didn't just brush it off. He thought it's a little wink from the universe, or at least a little nudge to pay attention. Because if Tesla was right, and he was right a lot, then 369
aren't just numbers. Now, you know me pretty well by now, and you know that I am skeptical about what Tesla is saying here. I very much doubt a lot of these claims, although I do see the numbers in nature. Let's just take what Tesla said of a pinch of salt. So why did I make this video then? Well, can I ask you, are you good with numbers? Because right now there is an opportunity available for you.
You have an opportunity to win $1 million and is all you have to do is solve a very hard maths problem. In 1859, Bernard Ryman set a problem. If you can solve the secret, the mysterious pattern behind where all prime numbers are hidden, you will get $1 million. So here's the question, 160 years later, has anyone solved the problem? No, they haven't. And this is where the Clay Mathematics Institute made this offer. They will give $1 million to anyone who can solve this problem.
But OK, surprise, surprise, I actually do believe there is one person who does know the answer to this problem, and it's God. A wiser man than me once said mathematics is just thinking God's thoughts after him. So over to you. Have you ever considered that this vast big God is also the God who counts? The God of the universe is the God who invented mathematics, and we're just catching up with
his thoughts years later. So there are three things I'd like to say to you about the counting God. Firstly, I want to talk about the beautiful things that God counts. Secondly, I'd like us to look at the scary things that God counts. And thirdly, let's consider the one thing that God does not count. Firstly, a beautiful thing that God counts. He counts the stars. Psalm 147 verse 4 says he counts the number of stars.
He calls them all by name. Did you know that there are 100 billion stars in one Galaxy, and there are about 2 trillion galaxies in the universe? Scientists don't know exactly how many stars there are, but they estimate there's about 1 septillion. And honestly, I'd never even heard of that number until I did the research for this video. And yet, what does the Bible say? That God knows all of these stars, and not only that, he's named them all. Apparently the average human can
only remember 150 names. So when all the people say I'm terrible at remembering names, it's not necessarily because their memory is going, it's just probably because they've maxed out their brains capacity by meeting 150 people in their long life. But here is something else beautiful that God counts. He counts the numbers of hairs on your heads. Why do I suddenly feel a little
bit conscious about my hairline? Well, it's because obviously for some of us, it wouldn't take very long to count the numbers of hairs on our head. But all jokes aside, it does show us something, doesn't it? It shows us that God cares about the trivial little things like our hair. He cares. Here's this huge God who made this massive universe, and yet he thinks of me. He knows everything about me. The Bible also says that we couldn't count the thoughts of God.
They're more numerous than the sand on the seashore. OK, but here's the third beautiful thing that God counts, and it's this. He counts our tears. Psalm 56, verse 8 says you keep track of all my sorrows. You've collected all all my tears in your bottle. You've recorded each one in your book. Isn't that a beautiful picture? That not one of your tears goes unnoticed? Not one of your tears is forgotten by the Lord God. He collects them in a bottle and
then records them in his book. I can't remember who said it, but a lady of the past once remarked, yes. But the problem is this God, there would not be a bottle big enough on earth to collect all the tears that I've cried over the years. What is God trying to say here? He's trying to say that you are important. You matter not in the sense of your ego or pride, but in your
value. You are deeply valuable to the Lord God. No one in this world has the right to say no one loves me because all you have to do is look at the God who counts, who cares for you, who sent his Son to die in a cross for you. My grandma sadly passed away in her 50s, but you know what her favorite Bible verse was Cast all of your cares on him, for he careth for you. That's the God who are talking about. Secondly, here are the scary things that God counts.
The first on this list is sin. Revelation 20 verse 12 says, and I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne and the books were opened. The dead were judged according to what they had done, as is recorded in the books. Have you ever thought about this? Imagine you sin. Let's put a number on it 15 times a day. Do you think that's realistic? Maybe you lose your temper. Maybe you think a rude thought.
Maybe you're prideful, maybe you gossip, maybe you watch something you shouldn't or you laugh at something that you shouldn't laugh at. 15 sins a day, I don't think that's unrealistic. Well, for me at least, I think that's being generous. I think I sin way more than 15 times a day. But how many sins is that? In one week, that's 105 sins. What about in one year? That's 5200 sins. Over 10 years, how many sins have you committed? 52,000 sins.
And if you live into your 70s or into your 80s, that's 308, 83,000 sins. Yet many people say I'm a good person. Many people say I'm OK, God sees my life and he'll say, come into heaven, You've been a good boy,
You've been a good girl. Do we honestly think with hundreds of thousands of sins written to our name, with the books opened, with the God that sees every single one of our sins and records them in his book, Do we honestly think that we're just going to waltz into heaven and say, I'm a good person? God, I've done all of these many good things, of course you're going to let me. And I'm not like those people you hear about on the news. I'm a really good, upstanding citizen.
But OK, I can hear exactly what you're saying. Joe, I really do think you're over exaggerating things. I'm really not as bad as you're making out. I certainly don't do 15 sins a day. It's it's just one or two. Maybe it. I am a good person. I really am. Stop trying to make me seem worse than I am. Well, let me put it another way to you Now.
I don't know how many pieces of paper there are here, but let's imagine there's a hundred pieces of paper, and I want you to imagine that each piece of paper represents one sin. Now if I put this in front of me, I want you to imagine now in front of me is the face of God. And my sins right here, all these sins, they block me from the face of God.
That's what our sin does. The Bible says it's separated us from a holy God. It stops us from having a relationship with God. It stops us from having friendship with this beautiful God. So here it is. I've got these many sins that are blocking the way. They're a barrier. But watch what happens when I do this. I've only got 1 sin. Now. Does this one sin block the way block the face of God? Of course it does. Even one sin is enough to keep
you out of heaven. Even one sin is enough to separate you from a holy, holy God. So whether your pile is message, if you have a huge pile of thousands and thousands of sins, or if you just have a few sins, it still blocks us from seeing the face of God. It still stops us from seeing our Father in heaven. You see, if the pass rate for a test is 100 and you get 99%, have you passed the test? No, you haven't. And yet did you know this? God's pass rate is 100%.
We can never meet it by ourselves, but I'm going to tell you how we can get into heaven despite the fact every single one of us has failed the test. So what's the second scary thing? That God counts. He counts our days. The Bible says teach us to number our days that we may gain a heart of wisdom. Did you know this? The Lord God has allocated you a certain amount of days, your days, your hours, your seconds.
They've been sovereignly decreed by the Lord God, and He knows the very day that you're going to live until He knows the length, He knows the span. Your death day is written on God's calendar, and it will never exceed that, and neither will it go shorter than that. It will be precisely when the Lord God has sovereignly decreed. And that's why we see people, you know, they go to the gym, they're really healthy, they cycle, they eat organically.
And we say, why is it they passed away in their 30s, in their 40s, their 50s? What happened? And then you get someone who smokes like a chimney and drinks like a fish and they live all the way into their 90s. How does that happen? It happens in God's mysterious Providence that God has numbered our days. And that's the thought that perhaps you've never considered before. Now, please don't misunderstand me. Anyone who knows me well knows that we do try to eat well. We do try to look after
ourselves. The Bible teaches that our body is a temple of the Holy Spirit. So we are to look after our bodies, but at the same time never forget just who is on the throne. We're not as in control as we think we are. The third scary thing that God counts is He counts souls. Revelation 20 verse 15 says if anyone's name was not found written in the book of Life, He was thrown into the lake of fire. So just picture that right now here.
It's saying in the Bible, it tells us that there is a great big book of life, a book with all the names of all the people who've ever trusted in the Lord Jesus Christ, all these names of people who've asked Jesus Christ to wash away their sins, who've asked Jesus to be their Lord and Saviour. There is a book in heaven with a big long list of names. And I want to ask you a very personal question, perhaps the most important question anyone has ever asked you.
And it's this is your name written in that book? Is your name written in the Lamb's book of life? You've heard of Jesus disciples, of course. Well, one day they'd come back and they'd done all kinds of amazing things. They'd cast out demons. They'd done loads of miracles and once they've done all of these things, they came back to Jesus thinking that they were the best thing since sliced bread. They thought they were the bees knees and Jesus sort of rebuked
them. He said don't rejoice that the demons tremble to you. Rejoice in this, that your name is written in heaven, and that's something that we should see as the greatest thing. If your name is written in heaven, there is no greater gift than that. But I would like to tell you right now, if your name isn't written in heaven, there is a way that it can be. And that leads us lastly to the one thing that God doesn't count, and that is sin. Wait a second, Joe.
Sorry, Joe, Literally just a few seconds ago you told us that God counts sin, and now you're saying he doesn't count sin. Which one is it? Joe, you're really contradicting yourself here. Well, just hear me out on this. The Bible says blessed is the one whose transgression is forgiven, Whose sin is forgiven. Blessed is the man against whom the Lord God counts. No iniquity. Did you catch that? If your sin has been forgiven, in other words, it's gone. That word iniquity means sin.
And once the Lord God has forgiven you, He won't count your sin to you anymore. If you've come to the Lord Jesus Christ and asked Him to wash away your sins, the Lord stops counting your sins. It's like your big pile of sin goes down to 0. Now I do wonder how many of you have been very observant. Have you noticed this stone behind me? Well, OK, it says subscribe. Now, if you want to subscribe, that's fine. But this is a much more important lesson.
This stone represents your sin. I don't know what sin you've committed. I don't know what sin you often fall into, but what is the one sin that keeps you up at night? What is the one thing you say? I wish I've never done that before? Well, I want to picture whatever sin that is written on this stone right now. And if we can do this without being frivolous or disrespectful, I want you to picture the very hand of God taking this stone and throwing it like a javelin, throwing it
right into the air so, so high. And then it falls right to the bottom of the ocean and it sinks and sinks right to the deepest part of the ocean. Let's imagine the Mariana Trench, it's gone now, isn't it? Is your sin ever going to come back if it's at the very bottom of the ocean? No, it's not. And A and a lovely Christian lady called Corrie Tamboom once said where the Lord God casts our sin, he also puts a sign there that says no fishing allowed. So can I ask you, would you like
that for yourself? Would you like your sins to be gone? Would you like the Lord God to stop counting your sins? Because here's how it works. Here we have this huge, big debt. Here we have these thousands, hundreds of thousands of sins, my sins, your sins, the sins of the entire world, every person
who has ever lived. I truly do believe all of these sins, all the weight of that sin, this big pile of sin was laid on Jesus Christ. And here the innocent one who had no sin, the Lord God never had to count the amount of sins of Christ, His Son. Why? Because it would be 0. There was 0 sin in Him. If you looked at His pile you would see nothing. But yet He took all of our sins in His body, and there He died in our place. There He endured the wrath, the
punishment for our sin. All our wrongdoing was placed on Him, all our sins were laid on Him, and He died in our place. He had nails driven through His hands, not because he'd ever done anything wrong with His hands. Every time He laid His hands on people, it was to heal them, it was to help them. But He had nails driven through his hands. For all the times that you and I, I've done horrible things with our hands. We've touched things, we've hurt people with our hands.
He had nails driven through his feet for all the times that you and I have walked to places we shouldn't have. And we knew that we should get out of that place. We knew we shouldn't stay there. Our conscience said run away from here, but we stayed there and didn't listen to the voice of God, even though we knew we shouldn't be in that place.
He wore a crown of thorns on his head, not because he'd ever thought wrong thoughts in his mind, but because you and I have thoughts, evil, rotten, bad thoughts in our minds many times. And then the Lord Jesus Christ was put up on a cross as a spectacle. Not because he deserved to be laughed at, not because he deserved to be a spectacle, or not because he deserved to be ashamed of anything he'd ever done. He was innocent, but he became a spectacle.
He took our shame on the cross, dying there for all of the embarrassing, terrible things we've ever done, our rottenness. He died in our place on the cross. If anyone puts their trust in the righteous Son of God, if anyone calls on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Bible says they will be saved, not they might. They will be saved. And that is the only way you get into heaven. Good people don't go to heaven.
You know, there will be many good, upstanding citizens like we've talked about, and they will not get into heaven. It's only forgiven people who go to heaven. And the only way you can be forgiven is coming to the Lord Jesus Christ and saying, have mercy on me. I'm a Sinner. And then the Bible says, if we put our trust in him, if we put our trust in the one who died on the cross, the one who was put in a tomb.
And as you know, as Christians, we believe this, that one of the best attested facts in history is that Christ Jesus rose from the dead. This is what makes him so special that he proved that he was the Son of God, that he alone is the only one who can have the power to wash away our sins. He alone is the only one to conquer our death because he is the only one who really did conquer the grave, who rose from the dead.
And it says in the Scripture, if we put our trust in him, the God who counts the stars, the God who counts the hairs on our head, the God who counts and numbers are tears. It says this God will suddenly choose to stop counting our sins anymore. The Bible says that he will remember our sins no more. It says he will separate them as far as the east is from the West. So far our sins will be removed from us. You can't get any further than the east is from the West.
And yet Jesus Christ says he can do that for you right now. Whoever you are, whatever you've done, wherever you're watching this from right now, Jesus can do that for you. And the only question that needs to be asked right now is do you want this for yourself? Let me leave you with one final thoughts. There was a Brazilian woman a number of years ago, and she'd been brought up in a very loving home. Her parents smothered her with love. They cared about her, they did
everything. They sacrificed a lot. They worked hard, many long hours to give her the best life. But very sadly, in her teenage years, she got into the wrong crowds and eventually their only daughter ran away from home. And you can imagine the kind of things she did in those crowds. You can imagine where it eventually ended up leading her. Many, many late nights walking on the streets. And one night, after a particularly difficult night on
the streets, she got home. Picture her in a little tiny, unclean flat, and then she sort of slumped on the floor. As she sat on the floor, she saw there was an envelope that had come through the letterbox. As she opened it, there in front of her was a picture of her mother and father. As tears started to fill her eyes, she turned it around and saw that there was a message on the back. It simply read these words. We don't care what you've done,
we just want you to come home. And my dear friend, the God of the universe, the one who made all of this and counts all these many different things, is saying the exact same message to you. I don't care what you've done, I just want you to come home. You might think you're too far gone. You might think you've messed up far too much and God will never
have you anymore. But is all the Lord God cares about is that you come home is all he cares about is that you run into his arms right now and he'll save you. He'll wash away all of your sins and he'll restore your dignity
and give you a new beginning. So if there's anyone listening right now and you're picturing that book that has all these names of all the Christians, all the believers in the world, the Lamb's Book of life, If you're picturing that book and right now you know your name is not written there, how does it go into that book right now? If you can see that you're a Sinner right now. If you can see the only one who can save you is Jesus Christ, just tell him quietly.
Stop this video and just have quietness now you with the Lord and ask him to save you, ask him to have mercy on you, ask him to come and live inside of you and change your life and give you eternal life. And once you do that, within a second, your name will be written in the Lamb's book of life because you've asked Jesus Christ to be your Lord and Savior. And if you have done that, what would be my next piece of advice? Well, I would say now you're a Christian, you need to start
reading the Bible every day. Take in, learn about God, learn about his messages, and let that entrance you go deep and it'll guide you in your life. The next thing I'd say to you is join a good local evangelical church that doesn't save you. As I've said, the only thing that's saves you is the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ washing away your sins. But going to church will help you on this journey. You need friends. You need Christians who will help you and keep you on the right path.
And also when we worship together as a church, there's nothing more beautiful than that and you'll find great joy there. And then very lastly, if you signed up to my newsletter, we do do very occasional every few months. We do discipleship meetings on Zoom where we have a chat. We look at a Bible study and, and we get a chance to talk and
ask questions. If you'd like to be part of that and if you'd like to ask me any questions or you'd like to, or you'd like to be encouraged by other believers, please do join that by going to our website offthecurb.org.
And very, very lastly, if you are already a Christian and you've hit the like button, you've subscribed and you want to know a little bit more about Nikola Tesla from a Christian perspective, you want to hear a video about him, Well, maybe you should watch this one right here because I think you'll find it very, very interesting. God bless you all and thank you for watching.
