Thank you Me2Lord, Tsth and Adullam....coming from you three means a great deal to me. 

On another forum a poster asked exactly what was being said in the thread.    I wrote....

• John 8:58-59 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. Then took they up stones to cast at Him: but Jesus hid Himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.

Jesus hiding Himself while in the "midst of them" caught my eye. We know that He is the Bread, the Word...the Logos. So the hidden Jesus is the hidden Manna. Where is He hidden? In us for He "dwells in us."

As they cast stones at Him then they now cast stones at Him in us. Children of the Light, those He dwells in, are in the midst of them on forums, in groups, in churches and yet He passes them by. They don't have eyes to see Him in us so He is hidden...hidden in plain view.

• Matthew 13:13-14 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:

Those that stone Him in us are not atheist for they are in the synagogues, churches, forums, Christian groups...but He is hidden from them:

• John 16:2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.

The killing is not literal. It is just to get rid of you and what you teach because His hidden manna is hidden from them.

• Matthew 7:22-23 Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Thy name? and in Thy name have cast out devils? and in Thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from Me, ye that work iniquity.

So I guess to sum it up...the thread is to call to attention to who we are and Who is in us.  To make the children of light aware that as they stoned Him they will stone us.
