'''Rock''' is used as a descriptive word for God. In the Old Testament, it marks him as eternal, steadfast, a refuge, and immovable. He is the foundation and habitation of his people, and his salvation is sure. | |||

The Rock is the [[Portal:Revelation|revelation]] of Jesus Christ, and [[Christ]] himself - the chief corner stone. | In the New Testament, the rock continues to describe the Lord, and its value is increased as it is called jasper, emerald, and crystal.
