Red is the most intense and dominant among all the colours. In that verse, The ALMIGHTY GOD, was portrayed not only strong and dominant but the kind of stone that is so valuable and so precious. Satan, although represented in red colour, he is not portrayed as valuable and precious although he possesses some power over those who are not with The LORD CHRIST JESUS. That's my understanding of that verse. Hope it helps.
Did we get a physical description of God in Revelations?

Im not denying that Christ is divine. I do believe that there is overwhelming evidence to support that the Father and the Son are separate persons. The Bible never states that there is only one divine person, only that we are to have one Deity we serve, Yahweh. Christ says to pray to the Father, in His Name. Christ never told us to pray to Him directly. He is at the right hand of the Father.
One may compare the Four Living Creatures to the Four Forces of Nature...
Lion = Electromagnetism
Ox = Strong Force
Eagle = Gravity
Man = Weak Force

2 Corinthians 6:16
"And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people"

I am human and you are human but we are not the same person. The word Elohim means either gods or God of gods. In either translation the implication is that there is more than one god. Some people try to make scripture say something it doesn't (you are probably going to accuse me of this), to make it fit their view. In Genesis is states that the sons of elohim came and mated with the daughters of men. Some make a million excuses about why this is impossible. If we are made in the image of elohim, that could mean that we are humanoid and they are humanoid. Yahweh is the God of gods (divine or celestial beings), the ultimate Royalty. Christ is God being divine Royalty but Son of the Most High God.
This is what the Bible actually spells out, before we allow our lack of knowlegde imagine a more digestable interpretation. Looking at history through a different lens we have to make a decision. (1)Either man was significantly more advanced and built fantastic structures, with precision tools that sliced through granite like butter yet still bowed down to statues of superstition. (2) The earth was a little more like Greek Mythology(reality), where supreme beings had relations with many women and produced a population of demigods, a view also shared in scripture. The gods or their offspring built the structures, and less advanced man bowed down to them and made statues in their image, to worship them. (3) We need to only concern ourselves with what is directly revealed to us through the Bible, turn a blind eye to everything else and explain away things that do not make sense as the mysteries of God that mere mortals can never comprehend.

What I understand from scripture and prayer is that The Almighty has form but His essence radiates like spirit. This is the Spirit of God. It's sort of like how heat radiates from a fire, or better still how a wifi signal extends from a wireless router. Information can be uploaded and downloaded through a "vacuum". The signal is not the router but an extension of it. I believe that this is how He communicates with us. Our emotions allow us to "tune into" His frequency.
Prove-all shared Ezekiel's vision of God, Daniels is kinda the same.
[SUP]5 [/SUP]Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz:
[SUP]6 [/SUP]His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.
[SUP]7 [/SUP]And I Daniel alone saw the vision: for the men that were with me saw not the vision; but a great quaking fell upon them, so that they fled to hide themselves. Daniel 10:5-7
[SUP]17 [/SUP]For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, straightway there remained no strength in me, neither is there breath left in me.
[SUP]18 [/SUP]Then there came again and touched me one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me,
[SUP]19 [/SUP]And said, O man greatly beloved, fear not: peace be unto thee, be strong, yea, be strong. And when he had spoken unto me, I was strengthened, and said, Let my lord speak; for thou hast strengthened me. Daniel 10:17-19

You continue to have a problem with Jesus on the throne and refuse to admit it, instead going off on tangents and interjecting off the wall interpretations of irrelevant (to the conversation) parts of the text while talking about people trying to make Scripture say something it does not, which is quite ironic seeing as that is what you are doing with your polytheistic take on things
The Rib at the Anatomic Scale represents the Nucleotide at the DNA Scale.
I call these revelations 'Dispensation of Scales'.
As Mankind is able to observe smaller and smaller things, God has a Revelation waiting for us each time.
The same is true for the opposite direction.
In 1953 Mankind was able to see "Two Sticks Joined as One" for the first time....

Yeah, I've heard of that interpretation before...
Daniel 11:37
"Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all"
It's a bit of a stretch to me.
Wasn't the desire of women to give birth to the Messiah?
But let's not throw out the theory entirely because the main reason all of this LGBT garbage is being forced on our Children is to get them ready for the Antichrist most likely being a type of 'Androgyny'.
This thing...
