predetermined limit. 1543. Triad—The term for a godless trio of god-like beings. In theological contexts it is to be distinguished from the word trinity in the same way the Lord God Almighty as the Holy Most High is distinguished from the devil and his angels. 1544. Tribe—Division. 1545. Tribute—Gift. 1546. Trinity—The theological term for the Godhead. Originally, the name of a pagan deity, a goddess. Perhaps this is why the term itself is not contained in Scripture. The ancient world was proliferated with various divine triads. The writer of the New Testament was no doubt quite aware of most of them. To separate—that is, hallow and sanctify—the true and living God’s Tri Personification, every effort was made to differentiate it from that which the pagan mind of the day understood. See Godhead. 1547. Trumpet—A) An instrument used by ancient priests for ingathering and announcing the new moon, religious festivals, and feasts. B) Also used by military leaders to announce war. C) Prophetically symbolizes both. Exodus 19:13, 16, 19; 20:18; Matthew 24:31; Revelation 1:10. 1548. Truth—A) The Word of Creator God and that which lines up with it. B) The name for the Lord Jesus Christ as the Word of Truth. C) The Word of God. 1549. Tryphon—Effeminate. 1550. Tsaddiq—Hebrew for righteous, as in God’s sphere of domain. Psalm 24:5 and 33:5. 1551. Tsava—The Hebrew counterpart for the apostolic strateia for warfare. In particular, this term like the other one refers to a heavenly warfare today in the New Testament church. It, too, pertains to the apostolate. See Warfare. 1552. Tunnel—A) An indication of a secret or humiliating underground journey. B) Confusion and emotional instability generally characterize such dreams due to being or feeling trapped. Often they are sparked by a resistance to change being forced upon the dreamer for which he or she sees no recourse or outlet. The makeup of the tunnel is important since its construction, if man made, speaks to carnality being the cause or object of the journey.
