going to the lab now...will give u lab report later. Maybe start w/15 drops per 32 ozs of x2 on first pour.
*I like to pours in biblical (or multiples of biblical) numbers. i.e.
3 drop= trinty, Father, Son, Holy Ghost (or SPIRIT if Ghost is too hard a word...)
* 5 drops = number of grace, 5 smooth stones (David v. Goliath), 5 fold ministry offices in New Testment Church found in Ephesians 4 (Apostles, Prophets, Pastors, Teachers, Evangelists)
*7 drops = completeness, wholeness On the day of atonement the high priest sprinkled the blood upon the mercy seat SEVEN times. (Leviticus 16:14) This is a picture of the COMPLETENESS of the redemptive work of Christ. 7th angel in book of Revelation, 7 musical notes that God created...et al
* 8 drops = Number 8 - New beginning
The ark carried EIGHT persons to a new beginning for man on earth (Gen 7.13). A male baby (a new creation) was circumcised on the EIGHTH day (Gen 17.12). The conversation between Nicodemus and Jesus regarding new birth mentions 'born' EIGHT times (Jn 3.1-8). The EIGTH day starts a new week.
* 9 drops - Divine blessings, divine completeness, divine judgment
There are NINE fruits of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Gal 5.22,23). The are NINE gifts of the Spirit (1 Cor 12.8-10) and NINE Beatitudes (Mat 5.3-11). Jesus completed His work on the cross "about the NINTH hour" (Mat 27.46). The sum of the numeric values of the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet is 4995 = 5 × 999. This implies that the Hebrew alphabet is 'watermarked' with the divine attributes of grace and completness!
In terms of judgment, in the Bible NINE persons are stoned to death, there are NINE widows, NINE persons are afflicted with blindness and NINE persons are afflicted with leprosy.
12 drops -God's government, twelve tribes of Israel
*The twelve apostles of the Jesus Christ: Simon whom he called also Peter, Andrew, James and John, Philip, Bartholomew, Thomas, Matthew, James son of Alphaeus, Simon called the Zealot, Jude son of James, and Judas Iscariot, replaced after the Ascension by Matthias. (Lk 6,12-16; Mt 10,2-4; Mk 3,16-19; Act 1,13)
*A woman suffered hemorrhage since twelve years she was cured by Jesus. (Lk 8,40)
*In the Revelation: the twelve gates of the celestial City (Rv 21,12); the twelve kinds of precious stone of the celestial City (Rv 21,19-20); the twelve stars of the crown that wears the woman (Rv 12,2); the trees of life, which bear twelve crops of fruit in a year, one in each month (Rv 22,2).
*The twelve "minor" prophets of the Old Testament: Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi.
