The Capstone
A Nations Covering
On the United States one dollar bill is a pyramid.
The capstone has the “Eye of Providence”.
I know that there are some who
believe this is a Masonic symbolism.
If you believe this, let me be like Paul at Athens who took
a symbol of those worshiping other gods to point them to
Christ.
In 1782, the Eye of
Providence was adopted as part of the
symbolism on the reverse side of the Great Seal of the United States.
Later, the Eye first appeared as part of the
standard iconography of the Freemasons in 1797.
Above the capstone on the dollar bill is Annuit Coeptis.
Annuit Cœptis is translated by the U.S. State Department,[7]
"He [God] has
favored our undertakings"
(brackets in original). (Wikipedia)
God’s Word tells us…
For the eyes of the
LORD range throughout the earth to strengthen
those whose hearts are
fully committed to him. 2Chronicles 16:9
Nothing in all
creation is hidden from God's sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare
before the eyes of him to whom we must give account. Hebrew 4:13
The eyes of the LORD
are everywhere, keeping watch on
the wicked and the
good. Proverbs 15:3
In the Book of Zechariah are the prophetic words
concerning the building of the temple.
The Lord said…
“… I will remove the sin of this land in a
single day.”
In that day, God will put a capstone with seven eyes upon
His work.
"(These seven are the eyes of the Lord,
which range throughout
the earth.)" Zechariah 4:10
Don’t be deceived, the people or nation who does not have
the Capstone Jesus Christ and His eyes upon them will fall.
Peter tells us many reject and stumble over the Capstone
Jesus Christ.
There is a promise to those who believe.
“But you are a chosen
people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God,
that you
may declare the praises of him who called you
out of darkness into
his wonderful light. 10 Once you were not a people,
but now you are the people of God; once you
had not received mercy,
but now you have
received mercy.”
It is this holy nation without natural borders that will have
the Capstone with Eyes of God’s Providence over them.
They will say…
Annuit Cœptis: God has favored our undertakings.
So when you look at a dollar bill let it be a reminder to
you
and every American Jesus Christ is the true Capstone.
Who in one dark day took away the sins of the
World so we could be a Holy Nation.
May we never reject God’s offer to be our Capstone, our
Covering.
Scripture Reading
NIV
1 Peter 2:4-10
4 As you come to him, the living Stone — rejected by men but
chosen by God and precious to him— 5 you also, like living stones, are being
built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual
sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 6 For in Scripture it says:
"See, I lay a stone in Zion,
a chosen and precious cornerstone,
and the one who trusts in him
will never be put to shame."
7 Now to you who believe, this stone is precious. But to
those who do not believe,
"The stone the builders rejected
has become the capstone,"
8 and,
"A stone that causes men to stumble
and a rock that makes them fall."
They stumble because they disobey the message — which is
also what they were destined for.
9 But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy
nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who
called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. 10 Once you were not a
people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but
now you have received mercy.
Zechariah 3:9
9 See, the stone I have set in front of Joshua! There are
seven eyes on that one stone, and I will engrave an inscription on it,' says
the Lord Almighty, 'and I will remove the sin of this land in a single day.
Zechariah 4:6-7
"This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: 'Not by
might nor by power, but by my Spirit,' says the Lord Almighty.
7 "What are you, O mighty mountain? Before Zerubbabel
you will become level ground. Then he will bring out the capstone to shouts of
'God bless it! God bless it!'"
Zechariah 4:10
"(These seven
are the eyes of the Lord, which range throughout the earth.)"
