Hi Charisma, Deb and Kathryn,
It would be nice to all sit in a room together and discuss these things.
It SURELY would Bob! It is all one thing.
We have broken it up into pieces and they are all related in amazing ways.
Great synopsis, Kathryn.
And good verse Charisma.
I wondered as I was reading if that number related to the stones becoming one stone. Petros and Petra.
So I looked it up. It did.
Eben (stone) is also in the list of 58.
Ge 28:10 And Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran.
Ge 28:11 And he lighted upon a certain place, and tarried there all night, because the sun was set;
and he took of the stones of that place, and put them for his pillows, and lay down in that place to sleep.
Ge 28:12 And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it.
Ge 28:18 And Jacob rose up early in the morning,
and took the stone that he had put for his pillows, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil upon the top of it.
That is an amazing find Bob...and one I have never followed fully to its logical conclusion. That same stone...the Coronation Stone that was removed from Scotland, was returned (after its departure:-) to Edinburg EDEN burg...a few years ago. It's quite the story, if you've never followed it! Many of Joseph's household wandered across Europe, from their homeland, settling in the Great Britain. (who flys the Union Jack..or Unity of Jacob)
Why does Jacob put stones (plural) for his pillow and then, when he awakens from his dream/vision he takes that very same Stone (this time singular.) that he had used for his pillow and sets it up and pours oil on it?
We are the stones that have been broken from the Rock which is Jesus. The stones are also the revelations that lead us to this realization which is coming back to become one with the original Rock.
De 29:29
The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but
those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.
Mt 16:17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
Mt 16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, (Petros= little rocks broken off of a large rock) and upon this rock (Petra= The large Rock) I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
It is revelation of the "Secret Things" upon which the Rock of His church is built.
But it is also US. We are the little stones who have been broken off of the original Rock.
The marriage of the Lamb is the coming together of the little rocks with the One Rock.
We are already one with him but only see it so far as we realize those secret things.
The revealing of those things is the marriage supper. It is a feast we are already partaking of.
We just do not yet see it. Or do we?
Seems to becoming clearer and clearer as we pass that "flame" of Joseph back and forth to one another.! Thanks for finally concluding that one for me! I knew the stone moving back was prophetic, as Stephen Jone's has written about it....and had an amazing "COINicidence" regarding it....but the dots hadn't made that last connection in me wee-moon-brain
Bob
