CORRECTION THE GREAT STONE IS 9’8''

Here are
the correspondents of the emails regarding this discovery of The Great Stone.
I Simon
Brown sent an email to the monastery at Mount Nebo asking PLEASE DO YOU KNOW
WHERE THIS STONE CAME FROM? and DO YOU KNOW HOW OLD IT IS AND WHY IS IT THERE?
2 days later I received an email from them saying it was found in a old village
and was used as a fortified door for a monastery. But here was the exciting
bit. They did not know how it got there or why it was made in the first place.
Here was their email

Re: Mount nebo. large rolling stone.
Dear Sir,
The stone
was a rolling door (!) found near the Mount Nebo and put there to protect and
show it.

I was so
confident this was the stone to the tomb that I sent emails to the Garden tomb
in Jerusalem for the attention of the new manger Richard Merion. As you would
expect I received no reply. I called the garden tomb staff by phone and asked
would they please ask Richard to call me in the UK. To my surprise he called
me. I told him who I was and that I was very familiar with the history of the
garden tomb, as I had in the past done much research and made a film of it. I
decided to pop the big question which I didn't think he would believe.
"Richard, if I told you I have discovered the missing rolling stone to the
garden tomb would you believe me?" He said at this stage he wouldn't say,
but he would be willing to hear my case and would I email him with the updates?
Perhaps I could meet him in London to present the evidence. I was very pleased
with his cooperation and told him I would gather all the facts together and
then call him. After some weeks I emailed Richard again, telling him that I am
going to make a trip to take measurements of both the stone and the garden
tomb. Getting no reply to my emails I spoke to Richard for the second time. He
seemed reluctant to co-operate and told me he had sent me an email, which I
never received. I asked him to resend it, but It still did not come. I then
received an email from Mr Victor Jack at the Garden Tomb Association in London.
He said he was not really bothered about whether the stone is found or not, and
that similar claims had been made by Ron Wyatt, which proved to them not to be
true. However he said that Richard Merion would hear my case.
Here below
you can read all the emails to and from, Mr Richard Merion Director, and Victor
Jack Chairman of the Garden Tomb (Jerusalem) Association.

Re: Subject: URGENT For the attention of Mr TV Jack.
Dear Mr
Brown,
Thank you
for your email. I have been involved with the Garden Tomb for over 20 years and
during that time we have had a number of claims by other individuals to have
found the Rolling Stone and even the ark of the Covenant under Skull Hill. None
of these have been found to be true.
At the
moment I will leave our very efficient Director, Richard Meryon, to correspond
with you, as he has asked for further evidence to substantiate your claim. I
couldn’t ask our Garden Tomb Council to meet with you until further
confirmation of your claim is received.
We have
always taken the view that the message of the death and resurrection of Jesus
is our prime focus and the reason for the existence of our ministry in
Jerusalem. Skull Hill, the empty tomb, the cistern and the wine press are all
powerful visual aids that enhance that ministry but we have never claimed that
our site is definitely the place where Jesus died and rose again, even though
some think it is.
Richard
will keep me informed.
Yours
sincerley, in our risen Lord, Victor Jack.

Dear Mr
Richard Merion with reference to my previous emails and my telephone
conversations with you.
As I agreed
with you. I have kept my promises and presented the evidence of my case
regarding this being the Great missing stone from the garden tomb.
However you
have never once had the decency to acknowledge any of my many emails.
Regardless
to you stating to me you would communicate by email.
Mr TV Jack
also stated to me you would hear my case.
Is this how
you normally treat your brothers in Christ?
I pray you
will receive this wonderful news the lord has now revealed to the world with
joyful hearts.
In the name
of Jesus.

I am rather
hurt by the tone of your e-mail as I have not received anything from you by
e-mail. I have just done another search
and cannot find any trace of receiving your thesis.
I await the
evidence and will give it a good read.
Please send it to me; I will acknowledge its receipt, and will then let
you know of the ministry’s response.
Yours
faithfully

Dear
Richard I don't mean to hurt you in any way. However I did what I said I would
do which is to send you all the very hard work I have done. By presenting my
case. And when I hear nothing I get hurt also.
Lets
continue to be brothers in Christ and move on.
All I ask
now is you hear my case so I can then go forward. Here is the link which has
much of the facts.

Dear Simon
Thank you.
Now that I have access to your hyper-link, I will spend some time studying it.
I will also
raise the subject at our next trustees’ meeting and let you know if the
trustees want to pursue your offer.

Last and
final email from Victor Jack, Chairman of the Garden Tomb (Jerusalem)
Association.
Dear Simon,
A possible
Stone
While you
have in the main been corresponding with our Director in Jerusalem, both he and
you have kept me fully advised of your enquiry, of your research and of your
offer. Thank you.
Many people
approach the Garden Tomb (Jerusalem) Association with a broad variety of
requests and suggestions. Everyone is
well-meaning, often genuinely sincere, but not all are in harmony with our own
ministry’s purpose. I have been closely
involved with the Garden for over 20 years so I am well versed with all these
contacts.
As Chairman
of the Board of Trustees of the GT(J)A I presented both your report and the
video clip to the whole Board at our trustees’ meeting in London, on Tuesday
15th March 2011. I regret to inform you
that the Board did not believe that what you have offered enhances the ministry
of the Garden. Furthermore, if you
raised all the funds and the necessary permissions to re-locate the stone from
Mount Nebo to East Jerusalem, the Board will still not accept your offer.
Our
Trustees have also asked me to tell you that we are deeply concerned that you
have broken two long-standing rules of the Garden Tomb, which is a private
Garden, in that you not only took video in the Garden without our permission,
you also took away material (the rock that you are seen to pick up from outside
the tomb) without are permission.
The Board
is also very concerned by your reference, without our being able to verify what
you say, to communication with staff of the GT(J)A in your publicity. I therefore ask you to remove all reference
to any communication with the GT(J)A, either positively or negatively, in any
publicity.
To avoid
any future disagreements that might embarrass either or both parties, let us
agree that the GT(J)A neither confirms or denies its position with regard to
the Mount Nebo stone. We also ask you
not to allow any of your filmed footage in the Garden Tomb to appear in the
public domain.
Our
response may disappoint you, but we have a responsibility to uphold the
ministry with which we have been entrusted.
Yours
sincerely,
Victor Jack

the Garden Tomb (Jerusalem) Assoication
