A White Stone               By Sandy Jones

Revelation 2:17

"He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it."

What is this hidden manna and what is the white stone?

In ancient days the white stone signified acquittal by a jury, as over against a black stone that pointed to the guilt of the defendant.

"Not guilty"--- That is the Truth. We are not guilty by virtue of the fact that God is not guilty and God is All that is going Here.

We cannot know our guiltlessness until we know who we really are. That is the white stone with our new name on it.

You are given a new name written on a white stone; you know who you really are. You know.

----"in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it."

This relationship is between you and God alone; only God knows your new name because this 'realization' of God's Allness comes to you from deep within you, intimate, personal, individual, one to one, heart to heart, in the sacred Love that is only between you and God.

Now we are clothed in fine linen.
