Hello all,
  I just thought I would share some musings with you.
  One of the names that our Lord chose fro Himself was Jehovah-Nissi, or
Jehovah my banner.  Would you consider a symbol to represent a banner, or
at least have a similiar purpose as a banner?
  Consider Moses' staff.  Was the staff just a symbol?  But our Lord chose
to work with this staff.  He used this staff in Pharoah's court, and He used
this staff in war.  When Moses raised the staff, the Isrealites would win.
  Well, it is not my intention to get to deep in thought about this, just a
few questions that came to my mind as I was reading some of the posts.
  Have a wonderful day in the Lord.
