ad. 1.
Jasper stone.
Revelation 21:1121:11 having the glory of God. Her light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal. This is the most beautiful stone that refers to
the faithor the Gate of Tabernacle.
Romans 10:1710:17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.The faith means believing in Jesus through hearing the Word of God in the anointing of Holy Spirit.
Holy Spirit helps us so that we can hear the Word seriously, understand, and believe in it.
Hebrews 11:8, 1711:8 By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.
11:17 By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, The examples of the heroes or witnesses of faith are Abraham, who belongs to Israel, and Rahab, who belongs to the Gentiles.
Hebrews 11:3111:31 By faith the harlot Rahab did not perish with those who did not believe, when she had received the spies with peace.The heroes or witnesses of faith are the brilliant people. They are prominent on their days because of having faith. Their lives always glorify God and have the testimony of Jesus.
ad. 2.
Sardius stone.
The color is red. It refers to the Altar of Burnt Offering or
repentance. It means stopping sinning to return to God.
ad. 3.
Crystalor the sea of glass.
Revelation 4:64:6 Before the throne there was a sea of glass, like crystal. And in the midst of the throne, and around the throne, were four living creatures full of eyes in front and in back. It refers to the Brazen Laver. Formerly, it was made of the brazen mirror. Now, it refers to the
water baptismor the life renewal from water. We get the new life, namely the heavenly one. We live in righteousness. We can radiate the light of righteousness in all aspects of our life.
ad. 4.
Emeraldor the rainbow around the throne.
Revelation 4:34:3 And He who sat there was like a jasper and a sardius stone in appearance; and there was a rainbow around the throne, in appearance like an emerald. The rainbow refers to the covenant between God and all flesh.
Genesis 9:13-179:13 "I set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth.
9:14 "It shall be, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud;
9:15 "and I will remember My covenant which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh.
9:16 "The rainbow shall be in the cloud, and I will look on it to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth."
9:17 And God said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between Me and all flesh that is on the earth." It was prophesied again in the book of Joel the prophet and fulfilled in the Acts, namely
the pouring out of Holy Spirit.
Acts 2:13-182:13 Others mocking said, "They are full of new wine."
2:14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, raised his voice and said to them, "Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and heed my words.
2:15 "For these are not drunk, as you suppose, since it is only the third hour of the day.
2:16 "But this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel:
2:17 'And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream dreams.
2:18 And on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days; And they shall prophesy.The rainbow is the same as the pouring out of Holy Spirit or Holy Spirit baptism. It refers to the Door of Tabernacle.
One who has been anointed or filled up by Holy Spirit is set free from the punishment of God; even he has the sign of the rainbow.
On the contrary, one who is dry or without Holy Spirit is outside the covenant of God and under the condemnation.
Ephesians 4:30-314:30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.
4:31 Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. We must throw away the bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking so that we are not dry spiritually.
Ephesians 4:324:32 And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God in Christ forgave you. As a result, we are under the covenant of the rainbow and not dry spiritually. The proof is we can be kind to one another, tenderhearted, and forgiving one another.
Romans 15:1615:16 that I might be a minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering of the Gentiles might be acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.Holy Spirit sanctifies the Gentiles, who are like the dog and swine, to become the sheep that are shepherded by God. We can live in holiness and please God with the sweet smelling aroma before Him.
Ephesians 4:11-124:11 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers,
4:12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, As a result, we are equipped with the ministry and the gifts of Holy Spirit. We are appointed as priests and kings to become the beautiful or living stones.
Formerly, the Gentiles were the hard stones, but now the beautiful ones because of the light from heaven, namely of jasper stone (having faith), of sardius stone (repenting), of crystal (water baptism), and of emerald (the fullness of Holy Spirit).
1 Peter 2:52:5 you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.Ephesians 4:124:12for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ,We are used in the ministry for building the perfect body of Christ or the revival of Holy Spirit at the latter rain which is a great revival. We can shine in our marriage, shepherding, inter-shepherding, up to the perfect body of Christ or the bride of God who is ready to welcome Jesus' second coming.
Revelation 12:112:1 Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a garland of twelve stars.The perfect body of Christ is the same as the light of the world like Jesus.
The bride of heaven has three kinds of light as follows.
- Being clothed with the sun or the light of God's love.
The facts found in it are as follows.
- The love of God gives us extra power, so we can be strong and of good courage.
Romans 5:5
5:5 Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
It means that we are not disappointed or hopeless as well as do not leave God in facing all things. We keep on waiting for Jesus' second coming. Do not sleep spiritually! Do not be negligent! We must only hear one voice of Bride Tidings.
- The love of God renews us.
Zephaniah 3:17-18
3:17 The LORD your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing."
3:18 "I will gather those who sorrow over the appointed assembly, Who are among you, To whom its reproach is a burden.
The fleshly men are renewed to be the spiritual ones. It begins from not lying. We can honestly confess our sin, the teachings, and all things.
James 3:2
3:2For we all stumble in many things. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfectman, able also to bridle the whole body.
We do not stumble in word. We are perfect. The bride only says 'Alleluia'.
Zephaniah 3:18
3:18"I will gather those who sorrow over the appointed assembly, Who are among you, To whom its reproach is a burden.
Revelation 19:6-7
19:6 And I heard, as it were, the voice of a great multitude, as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty thunderings, saying, "Alleluia! For the Lord God Omnipotent reigns!
19:7 "Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready."
- We wear the crown of twelve stars or the light of Holy Spirit God.
Daniel 12:3
12:3 Those who are wise shall shine Like the brightness of the firmament, And those who turn many to righteousness Like the stars forever and ever.
The fact found in it is the anointing of Holy Spirit gives the gifts, so we can appear as the shining stars as follows.
- Faithfulness and fervency in spirit in serving and ministering to God.
If we are not faithful, the light will be dim. If the service and ministry are left, the star will fall.
- Being wise or holding fast and obeying the true teaching Word. We are held by God and our life relies fully on the mercy of God.
- Testifying to turn many to righteousness. As a result, our life is led or guided by God to the beautiful future life.
- It continues until we have the crown of twelve stars or the crown of life. We have the eternal life.
- Standing upon the moon or the light of the Son of God.
It is the same as the light of redemption of the blood of Jesus. The fact found in it is having the firm standpoint or confession to Jesus.
Matthew 16:15-18
16:15He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?"
16:16 Simon Peter answered and said, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God."
16:17 Jesus answered and said to him, "Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven.
16:18 "And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.
The Christ means the anointed. The people who are anointed are the king, high priest, and prophet.
One who is redeemed by the blood of Jesus has a firm confession about these things.
- Jesus is a King(purple color).
We become the kings or people who defeat the sins, so we can live in righteousness.
Psalm 20:9
20:9 Save, LORD! May the King answer us when we call.
The prayer of the righteous will be answered by God.
- Jesus is a High Priest(the blue color).
We become the priests or God's servants who minister to Him with a peaceful heart.
- Jesus is the Son of God(white color).
We become the sons of God who live in holiness.
- Jesus is a prophet or suffering human(red color).
We willingly suffer in the flesh with Jesus so that we get the faith like a pure gold or the perfect faith.
Thus, standing upon the moon means standing upon the sacrifice of Christ or the cross.
The results are as follows.
- The cross is able to change the bitter things into the sweet ones, even the curse into the blessings.
Exodus 15:23-25
15:23 Now when they came to Marah, they could not drink the waters of Marah, for they were bitter. Therefore the name of it was called Marah.
15:24 And the people complained against Moses, saying, "What shall we drink?"
15:25 So he cried out to the LORD, and the LORD showed him a tree. When he cast it into the waters, the waters were made sweet. There He made a statute and an ordinance for them. And there He tested them,
We have the physical and spiritual blessings as well as the ones in our household, namely the unity and joy of marriage until we are in the marriage supper of the Lamb. The failure can be changed into success. The destroyed things can be restored.
- The cross defeats Satan.
Revelation 12:10-11
12:10 Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, "Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down.
12:11 "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.
Satan, the source of temptations and problems, is defeated. All problems are solved by God.
- The cross is able to renew and unite Israel and Gentiles to be one perfect body or the Bride of God.
Ephesians 2:13-16
2:13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.
2:14 For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation,
2:15 having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one new man from the two, thus making peace,
2:16 and that He might reconcile them both to God in one body through the cross, thereby putting to death the enmity.
It continues until we sit with Jesus on the throne of heaven forever.
God blesses you.
