Nope, that one doesn’t do it. Not by a long shot.
If you want reference to God as the Rock here are some verses.
Deut. 32:4 He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.
2 Sam. 22:2 And he said, The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; 3 The God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my saviour; thou savest me from violence.
Psalm 18:31, "And who is a rock, except our God."
Isaiah 44:8, "Is there any God besides Me, or is there any other Rock? I know of none."
Rom. 9:33, "Behold, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense, and he who believes in Him will not be disappointed."
1 Cor. 3:11, "For no man can lay a foundation other than the one which is laid, which is Jesus Christ,"
1 Cor. 10:4, "and all drank the same spiritual drink, for they were drinking from a spiritual rock (petras) which followed them; and the rock (petra) was Christ."
That’s right, Jesus, God, who changed the names of men whom He had chosen for specific mission, changed Simon’s name to rock cause he was such a hard head.
Do you or anyone here have anything new to offer?
It’s all like a record with a scratch that keeps playing the same thing over and over and over.
Tell me, CB, how do you respond to those who claim that ALL of Christianity, that’s right all the beliefs held in common by Christians are purloined, warmed over, pagan beliefs about pagan gods?
New year, same old same old.
