Hey MstrdSeed.White in the bible refers to the righteousness of God.Not many bible comentators agree on this subject but have a basic tone of agreement- that of assurance. It seems that in ancient times a white stone meant aquittal. For example, if a man had been tried by court, the jurors published their case by laying down a white stone, signifying that they were aquitting him of his crime.This would certainly be in accord with many other passages of Scripture that indicate that Christ has given aquittal to the child of God who has called on Him for forgiveness and salvation. Romans 5:1 "justified through faith." The big difference, of course, is that we are guilty. Christ died guiltless and therefore we receive the white stone of aquittal with a name for Christ on it that is yet unkown to us. ...an eternal aquittal we gain through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.( Tim Lahaye's Revelation Unveiled ) Just another Look. In Christ, your brother |
