Lia Fail, the British Coronation Stone |

|
And he (Jacob) lighted upon a certain place, and tarried there all night, because the sun was set; and he took of the stones of that place, and put [them for] his pillows, and lay down in that place to sleep. And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it. And, behold, the "I AM" stood above it, and said, I [am] the "I AM" God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac: the land whereon thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed; And thy seed (Jacob's) shall be as "the dust of the earth", and thou shalt spread abroad to the West, and to the East, and to the North, and to the South: and in thee and in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed. And, behold, I [am] with thee, and will keep thee in all [places] where thou goest, and will bring thee again into this land; for I will not leave thee, until I have done [that] which I have spoken to thee of. And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said, Surely the "I AM" is in this place; and I knew [it] not. And he was afraid, and said, How dreadful [is] this place! this [is] none other but the house of God, and this [is] the gate of heaven. And Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the Stone that he had put [for] his pillows, and set it up [for] a pillar, and poured oil upon the top of it. And he called the name of that place Bethel (House of God): but the name of that city [was called] Luz at the first. And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and clothing to put on, So that I come again to my father's house in peace; then shall the "I AM" be my God: And this Stone, which I have set [for] a pillar, shall be God's house (Bethel): and of all that Thou shalt give me I will surely give the tenth unto Thee. Genesis 28:11-22
The obscene phallic-stone that now stands on the Inauguration Mound (an Forrad) at The Hill of Tara is wrongfully named the Lia Fail. It's actually the phallic pillar-stone of the ancient pagan Baal religion that stood upon the Hill of Tara when Teia Tephi arrived from Jerusalem in 583 B.C. The Baal-pillar had a golden sun with the horns of Baal on the top of it and was used in the ceremonies and rituals of the satanic Baal religion at that time. When Teia Tephi arrived at Tara she had the phallic stone removed and buried near where the Mound of the Hostages was later erected. She then replaced the phallic stone with the real Lia Fail Stone, the Stone of Destiny, that she had brought with her from Jerusalem. Also known as Jacob's Pillar, it was the throne upon which are crowned the kings of the people of Israel. The phallic stone was later recovered from where Teia Tephi had it buried, and it was replaced on the Inauguration Mound at Tara some time between 1839 and 1845. The Lia Fail is God's Throne on which are crowned those who lead the Israelite people, which includes the people of Ireland The stone phallus IS the Curse of Tara The real Lia Fail stayed in Ireland at the Hill of Tara for over a thousand years after Teia Tephi brought it with her from Jerusalem. All of the kings of Ireland were crowned on the Stone, right up to Muircheartach (Murdoch) son of Earc. In around 500 A.D. Fergus Mor Mac Earc, his brother, invaded and settled Western Scotland which was previously occupied by the Picts. Fergus wanted to be crowned on the Lia Fail Stone as king of the (Scots) Irish who had migrated to Scotland. Muircheartach loaned the Stone to him for that occasion. The place where Fergus was crowned after his arrival in Argyll is the hill-top Fort of Dunadd in the Kilmartin valley. On the summit of this fortress of Dunadd is a footprint carved in stone, and next to it a bowl-shaped hollow and the figure of a wild boar. The hollow contained water used in ceremonial bathings; and the figure of the boar probably represented kingly courage and fierceness. Behind the footprint is a place for a stone. While Fergus was being crowned, he sat on the Stone with his foot in the footprint. Boece in his "Chronicles of Scotland" adds some details: "Fergus, son of Ferchard (Erc), was first King of the Scots in Scotland, and brought the chair from Ireland to Argyll, and was crowned on it. He built a town in Argyll called Beregonium, in which he placed it. From him proceeded forty kings of Scotland. The twelfth king, Evenus, built a town near Beregonium, called after his name Evonium, now called Dunstaffnage, to which the Stone was removed, and the remainder of the forty kings are all crowned in Dunstaffnage, reign there, and are buried there." (Boethii Scotorum Hist., ed. 1527. Bellenden's Croniklis of the Scots). When the area had been pacified, Fergus decided to divide the land of Argyll among the people. The people promised faithfully that they would only allow themselves to be governed by the sovereignty of a king in the times ahead. They also promised to have only those of the lineage and blood of Fergus reign over them; and, if they failed in this, they prayed that God would send the same vengeance on them and their posterity as fell on their elders in Egypt And Spain in the past, when they broke the Commandments of God. The Chronicles of Scotland, by Hector Boece. Pg 46. Shortly thereafter, Fergus built a church at Iona, an island off the western shores of Argyll, and commanded it to be the Sepulchre of the Kings of Scotland from that time forward. Later on his nephew Columba left Ireland and built a monastery there. After dividing the land up into twelve areas, Fergus left Argyll for Ireland to quell some disturbances that were threatening the peace of the island. While crossing the Irish sea, his ship was caught in a terrible storm and driven upon a rock off the coast of Ireland. There he perished in the raging sea along with all his nobles. This rock is now called Cragfergus in his memory. Muircheartach Mac Erc, the brother of Fergus; was the last Irish king of Ireland to be crowned upon the Lia Fail, committed adultery and died because of it and the Sovereignty of Israel was overturned from Tara to his brother Fergus "Mor" Mac Erc, at Dunadd, Argyll in Scotland, completing the second overturn of the Bethel Stone Throne of David, the Lia Fail (Stone of Destiny).
"King Kenneth 2nd (d.995 A.D.) had the Stone placed on a wooden pedestal in front of the high altar of the Abbey of Scone.... The ancient Abbey of Scone was destroyed in 1559 A.D. at the time of the Reformation. Today... on Moot Hill (the Hill of Credulity) stands a stone chapel, marking the place where the Stone of Destiny had rested and where the kings of Scotland presided over their Parliaments. Edward the 1st of England (Edward "Longshanks" in the film Braveheart) invaded Scotland and removed the Stone to England in 1296 A.D. Edward took The Lia Fail to London where it was placed in Westminster Abbey and all of the kings of England right up to and including George the 6th were crowned on The Stone of Destiny. In Westminster Abbey Edward's Chair, in which the succeeding kings and queens of the realm have been inaugurated, is in height six feet and seven inches, in breadth at the bottom thirty-eight inches, and in depth twenty-four inches; from the seat to the bottom is twenty-five inches; the breadth of the seat within the sides is twenty-eight inches, and the depth eighteen inches. At nine inches from the ground is a board, supported at the four corners with four lions, the symbol of the tribe of Judah. Between the seat and this board is enclosed a stone, commonly called JACOB'S, or The Fatal (Lia Fail) marble stone. History relates that this is the stone whereon Jacob laid his head in the Plains of Luz (Bethel). Genesis 35:6 Some Scots have always maintained that the real Scottish Coronation Stone was a different color and shape and it never left Scotland; but that a fake was foisted on the English soldiers of Edward "Longshanks" by the Abbot of Scone, who knew in advance that Edward's soldiers were coming to take the stone from the Scots. Using the principle that the simplest answer is usually the right one, the logical conclusion that can be drawn from all of the facts; prophecies and legends is that there were in fact two stones in Scotland; one of which can be called the Stone of Destiny (bluish/purplish steel color with veins of red) and the other the Scottish Regal (black marble). Some of the ancient chroniclers state that the Scottish Regal Stone was hollowed like a seat or chair, others that it was black; marble; carved; sculptured; that it had an inscription; that it had metal bands around it with metal hooks on all four corners by which to carry it. There are what appear to be two conflicting stories about the Stone of Destiny and how it came to Scotland at two different times, being brought by two different people by similar but nevertheless two different routes. Most historians have tried to lump these two stories together but like a square peg and a round hole they do not fit. The reason that these two stories do not fit together is because although they are similar in content, they are in fact two totally separate stories about two separate stones* that were used for the same purpose by two separate branches of the same people that historians have tried to make into one and therein lies the cause of the confusion. It had become a common practice for nations to have a special stone or stone chair that they used for coronations. One story from the Chronicles of Scotland by Hector Boece relates how (in 1300 BC) Gathelus (Gallo) and his wife Scota who married in Egypt; then sojourned in Spain before coming (or their descendants) to Pictland (now Scotland) with the black marble Regal Stone used as the Coronation Stone by the Zarah (Red Lion) branch of Judah. The other tells how in 583 BC - 700 years after Gathelus and Scota, Jeremiah brought King Zedekiah's daughter Tamar "Teia" (Tea) Tephi and the Stone of Destiny used as the Coronation Stone by the Pharez (Golden Lion) branch of Judah from Jerusalem to Ireland, via Egypt, Gibraltar, Spain and Cornwall and that after more than a thousand years at Tara, it was brought to Dunadd in Western Scotland (the Eastern Dalriada) by Fergus Mor mac Erc in c. 500 AD. The confusion has come about because people have tried to amalgamate the two stories, instead of realizing that they are about different people and stones (700 years apart). The key to the mystery would be Kenneth MacAlpin who was descended from Teia Tephi from the line of David and Eochaidh mac Duach from the line of Zarah on his patriarchal side and whose mother was a Pict princess. It was he who united the Picts and Scots into one kingdom - the kingdom of Scotland at which point the two Coronation Stones came together at Scone. Then in 1296 when Edward I "Longshanks" decided to take the Scottish Coronation Stone from Scone, Abbot Thomas kept the Scottish Regal (Gathelus') black marble stone that had been the throne of the Picts and gave the Stone of Destiny to Edward's soldiers, thereby fulfilling the third overturn prophesied by God in Ezekiel 21:27. Abbot Thomas was then still able to crown Robert the Bruce on the Scottish Regal as king of Scotland at Scone in 1306. He was subsequently arrested by Edward; taken to England; imprisoned; kept incommunicado in chains until he died. He never revealed the whereabouts of the Scottish Regal Stone, which was found in 1819 at Dunsinane and reported to have been taken to London. There are two accounts of this part of the story from the early nineteenth century of a possible original stone at Dinsinnan/Dunsinane, the site of Macbeth's Castle just a few miles from Scone. One account, that has been passed down through generations of the Earls of Mansfield who have possessed the lands at Scone for almost 400 years, is that because of a landslide brought on by torrential rain farm lads discovered a fissure in the rocky hillside, and, on exploration, found themselves in a chamber containing "a slab of stone covered with hieroglyphics and supported by four short stone legs" The second account was reported in the London Morning Chronicle of 2nd of January 1819, telling how, during excavations among the castle ruins, ground collapsed and workmen fell into an underground vault which contained "a large stone weighing about 500 pounds which is pronounced to be of the meteoric or semi-metallic kind". The report goes on to say that the stone was shipped to London for inspection. Nothing has been heard of it since then. This black marble stone found in 1819 is the Scottish Regal belonging to the Scots, and it should be on display in Edinburgh Castle or Scone Palace, not the Scottish sandstone fake. Baillie Robert Gray of Glasgow made the fake in the 1920's and it was left at Arbroath Abbey. On 11th April 1951, Elizabeth II was crowned upon the fake not the real Bethel Stone of Destiny. That is currently held either by Ian Hamilton or his friends and has been since 25/12/1950 and it belongs in Ireland, at Royal Tarah, from where it was borrowed by Fergus Mor mac Erc, from his brother Muircheartach the king of Tarah, in 500 AD. It's a well-known fact that as London was being bombed by German Luftwaffe during World War 2, contingency safety plans were written-up to protect The Stone. Not until the 1950's was it revealed that the then Prime Minister of Canada was the only person outside a group numbering no more than 10 men, caretakers of the Relics at Westminister Abbey who knew where The Stone was hidden on the Abbey grounds. NO similar plans had been made to secrete away the Crown Jewels. The Coronation Chair with the Stone in it was kept for a time in Winchester Cathedral. In Jacob's Pillar, E. Raymond Capt, Artisan Sales 1977, writes, "Dean Stanley, one-time custodian of the Stone, in his book Memorials of Westminster Abbey, sums up its historical importance in these words: It is the one primeval monument which binds together the whole Empire. The iron rings, the battered surface, the crack which has all but rent its solid mass asunder, bear witness of the English Monarchy -- an element of poetic, patriarchal, heathen times... carries back our thoughts ... a link which unites the Throne of England to the traditions of Tara and Iona" (2nd Edit. pg. 66). Capt (p. 57). The final breaking of the Stone would witness the end of the reign of the line of David and the transfer of the sovereignty to Joseph/Ephraim (Genesis 49:10, 22-24). In appearance the rugged surface of The Stone of Destiny is of a steely dull-purplish color, varying somewhat, and with some reddish veins. It is composed of calcareous sandstone and imbedded in it are a few pebbles; one of quartz and two others of a dark material (porphyrite or andesite?). Its shape is roughly "pillow-like" being about 26" in length; 16" in width, and 10.5" in depth. Across its surface runs a crack and some chisel-marks are still visible on one or two sides. It appears to have been in the process of being prepared for building purposes, but was discarded before being finished. In preparation for King George VI's coronation, the Stone was temporarily removed from the Coronation Chair, and a photograph was taken of it. This photograph disclosed that a groove runs right across the Stone from ring to ring. From its appearance this groove was not cut, but was clearly the result of friction from a single pole being passed across from ring to ring. Such an indentation and wearing-away of material indicates the enormous amount of carrying that the Stone was subjected to. If, as it appears, a single pole was used, because of the weight of the Stone (458 lbs.) it is probable that more than two persons actually carried The Stone. Towards the end of December 1950 four young students visited Westminster Abbey with a plan to remove the Coronation Stone and take it back to Scotland. Those months of preparation should have been devoted to removing 458 pounds of sandstone from England to Scotland, especially on Christmas day, proves that at least they knew a great deal more about the Stone than most people. They succeeded in their plan. When the disappearance was discovered, the hue and cry was unprecedented. The practice they had on removing a stone of similar proportions in Glasgow (weighing 336 lbs.) turned out to be of little use for two reasons, (1) the Coronation Stone was heavier by far (122 lbs. heavier), and (2) it was cracked diagonally across the surface, and broke in the course of its removal. Lia Fail Or The Stone Of Destiny - George H. Thompson and Rev. McKelvey - 1977 Ian Hamilton, a Scottish Nationalist, studying law at Glasgow University; not realizing that he was being inspired by God to do it in fulfillment of His Prophecy to Ezekiel; decided something had to be done about recovering The Stone from England, and, when he met Kay Matheson at the Covenant party in October 1950, he found her in a similar frame of mind. He got money from a Glasgow businessman who had been involved in the previous nineteen-thirties attempt to liberate The Stone. In the early hours of Christmas morning in 1950, the Lia Fail (Stone of Destiny) was removed from Westminster Abbey by four Scottish Nationalists:- Kay Matheson, Ian Hamilton, Gavin Vernon and Alan Stuart, and taken back to Scotland, with the assistance of two new members of the team: Johnny Josselyn and Bill Craig. Big Ben struck 4 a.m. as Kay Matheson drove the Anglia into a lane at Palace Yard by the Abbey. Ian Hamilton parked the known car on nearby Millbank. She stayed in the car as the others broke into the Abbey near Poets' Corner and made for the Confessor's Chapel. Hamilton laid his coat reverently on the ground to receive the Stone, but it wouldn't budge.* He pulled one of the rings, and suddenly it was sliding towards him as easily as though the hands of angels were helping. To his horror he realized that only part of the sandstone (porphyry) block was attached to the ring. I examined the Stone carefully. It is a block of rough-hewn sandstone twenty-six and three quarter inches long, by ten and three quarter inches deep, by sixteen and three quarter inches broad. I had not been able to find its weight, but we had reckoned (based upon the practice copy they made) that it would not be more than three hundredweights (the exact weight of their pinkish buff Scottish sandstone copy 336 lbs., made by Bertie Gray now on display in Edinburgh Castle crown room), though we were later to discover to our cost that it was more than four [cwt.] (458 lbs.). On either end a few links of chain terminating in an iron ring . - No Stone Unturned, Ian R. Hamilton (1925), London, Gollancz 1952. page 36, para 3, line 4
So what happened to The real Lia Fail - Stone of Destiny after the Scottish Nationalists removed it from Westminster Abbey, and what is The Stone's final Destiny, from which it got its name?
Verse 26 above tells us that The Throne (Lia Fail) will be (was) taken from the Pharez branch (him that was high) of the tribe of Judah in Jerusalem and given to the Zarah branch (him that was low) of the tribe of Judah, who had settled in Ireland. This happened when king Zedekiah of Jerusalem from the Pharez branch of the tribe of Judah, was overthrown by king Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon and princess Teia Tephi, Zedekiah's daughter brought the Lia Fail Stone to Ireland and married Eochaidh Mac Earc/Duach/Dui, the high king of Ireland who was from the Zarah branch of Judah in the sixth century B.C., as shown symbolically on the Ulster Flag. The above was the first of the four overturns mentioned in verse 27. The second overturn was when the Lia Fail was taken from Ireland to Scotland in c. 500 A.D., overturning the Throne from the kings of Ireland, and the third overturn was when the Throne was removed from the Scots and taken to England in 1296. God then tells us in the second half of verse 27 that the Throne shall be overturned no more, UNTIL He (Shiloh - Christ) comes whose Right it is; and that He (God) will give it to him (Christ). If we go to Genesis 49:9-10; we are told that the sceptre (sovereignty) will not depart from the line of Judah until Shiloh (Christ) comes (and then it will depart from Judah). In Genesis 49:22-24 we are told that from Joseph's seed (not Judah's) will the Shepherd (Christ) come. The fourth and final overturn began on Christ-mas Day in 1950 when God inspired and Christ assisted four Scottish Nationalists to remove the real Lia Fail from Westminster Abbey for Him and replace it with the fake (Stone of Scone). King George 6th knew of this prophecy in Ezekiel 21:27 concerning the British Throne - the Stone of Destiny - and the fourth and final overturn and was vexed and afraid that the loss portended the end of his dynasty, as Ian Hamilton states in his book "The Taking of the Stone of Destiny", Lochar 1991, page 139, "Forty years on" line 8:- "Privately we learned that he (George 6th) had a superstitious fear that the loss portended the end of his dynasty." George 6th must have known, as must his daughter Elizabeth, that the stone that was left at Arbroath Abbey on 11th April 1951 was a Scottish sandstone fake, and she must have known, from that, that she was cursed by God and never really crowned. After George 6th died, Elizabeth Mountbatten delayed her coronation, whilst desperately seeking and hoping to find the genuine Coronation Stone. But when it was not found and she had to hold a coronation ceremony, she flatly refused to have the ceremony televised, because she was afraid that people would see the fake stone, recognize that it was a fake, and know that she was a pretender to the Throne. Mrs. Mountbatten was unable to enforce her will and had her hand forced, by popular-demand, to allow the ceremony to be televised, so she set a firm condition upon the BBC that there must be absolutely no close-up shots, and nothing shown at a closer distance than thirty feet, so that no-one would be able to see a close-up of the fake stone that she knew she was pretending to be crowned upon. She must also have known the prophecy, as did her great, great grandmother Queen Victoria, who said that if Christ came to take the Throne, she would immediately step down and give it to its rightful owner, and everyone of them knew it down to George 6th. It is unthinkable that George 6th would not also have taught this to his children - that Christ would come one day and rightfully claim the British Throne, in fulfillment of prophecy. Elizabeth must have known that Christ was already here; because the Throne had been removed from her, in fulfillment of prophecy; and that one day during her reign Christ would rightfully claim the Throne. Elizabeth II who is descended from the royal line of David from the tribe of Judah, was then crowned on that fake stone in 1953, so in actual fact was never officially crowned queen of Britain in the eyes of God; as God Himself prevented her from being, by having the Stone taken from her. In the Scottish National Library there is a Gaelic manuscript (by Dugald the Scot, son of McPhail, in A.D. 1467) containing the complete genealogies of the Scottish kings, showing their descent through the Irish kings by way of Judah, Jacob-Israel and Isaac back to Abraham. In Windsor Castle there is also a genealogical table showing the descent of the British kings from David through the Irish and Scottish lines. Thus the Monarchy existed long before there was a British Nation." Capt (p. 55) One final note: "One of the most significant facts about the Coronation Stone is that no similar rock formation exists in the British Isles." Professor Totten -- Science, Yale University, after making a thorough examination of the Stone made the following statement: "
" The sandstone in Scotland and Ireland is dissimilar to the Stone. Regarding the Stone, "Professor Edward F. Odlum (1850-1935), B.A.; M.A.; B.Sc.; F.R.G.S.; F.A.S.; F.R.C.I., Inst.; F.A.G.S.; a geologist; scientist; educator, and lecturer -- University of Victoria College, Cobourg, (now located in the University of Toronto), Ontario, Canada, was "intrigued with the idea that perhaps its source could be found in Palestine, as suggested by the ancient records of Ireland. Professor Odlum discovered a stratum of sandstone near the Red Sea at Bethel in Palestine geologically the same as the Coronation Stone. British Royal genealogy traces its heritage to all the Royal households throughout Europe from the Spanish Monarchy to the last Royals of Russia and the Danes, Swedes and nearly every monarch in between.

"In
843 A.D., Kenneth Mac Alpin was crowned on the Lia Fail Stone as the first
King of the United Kingdom of the Picts and the Scots. One of his first
acts as King was to found a church at Scone (near Perth, Scotland) because
it was there that he had gained his principal victory over the Picts.
