Stones intro sampler - Flipbook - Page 12
After some digging in the Scriptures, I was reminded that the Rock of Ages,
the one true, living God, is still on his throne (which, according to Revelation, sits
in the midst of innumerable precious stones). And Jesus, the Cornerstone of my
faith, the surest evidence of God’s faithfulness, is still in the business of building
his invincible Kingdom—a Kingdom never threatened by evil or evildoers.
If you are struggling to find sure footing in your faith or are longing for
security, protection, or refuge, this Bible study will guide you to a hiding place in
God. You’ll find the safety you long for in your mightiest fortress, Jesus.
Together, we are going to study the bedrock—the foundational principles—of
Jacob, Moses, Joshua, Jesus, and the church. What you are going to find in this
storyline is that rocks and stones are not random details captured by the Bible’s
authors. Stone imagery in the Scriptures can build our faith in the same way
stones have been used to build altars and memorials of worship.
And the storyline of rocks and stones will lead you to Jesus, the One for whom
the stone was rolled away, whose resurrection solidifies our faith.
Love,
