The Law is Rolled Away

Rolled Away Stone is a powerful Uncommon Event from the Gospel Age, costing 3 faith and offering direct removal of any enemy Being with 5 or more strength. Its ability to exile high-threat units makes it a crucial tool against late-game heavies and meta-defining finishers.

The Stone Could Not Hold Him

The stone was massive, sealed with the authority of Rome and guarded by soldiers. Yet in the moment appointed by the Father, it was rolled away with no struggle, no hesitation, no resistance. The angel of the Lord descended, his appearance like lightning, his clothing white as snow. This was not an escape, this was a royal procession out of the grave. Death had lost its claim. The tomb was empty because the King had risen.

This stone, meant to seal Him in, became the silent witness to the power of the resurrection. It was no longer a barrier but a monument of victory. Just as the Red Sea parted for Israel to walk into freedom, the stone was moved so the disciples could see the truth, He was alive. The law, sin, and death had been conquered in that single, unstoppable act.

This card's verse is Luke 24:2:

"And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre."

The prophets had pointed to this day. David had written, "For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption" - Psalm 16:10. Isaiah had declared, "He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord God will wipe away tears from off all faces" - Isaiah 25:8. That empty tomb was the fulfillment of every promise.

The Seal of the New Creation

The resurrection was more than the return of breath to the body, it was the birth of a new covenant reality. The same Spirit that raised Jesus now gives life to all who believe. The stone that had marked the end of the story became the opening scene of the greatest chapter ever told.

The rolled away stone also declares judgment against every power that thought it could hold Him. Sin’s penalty is gone. Death’s fear is gone. The grave’s grip is gone. Every enemy is defeated, and every captive set free. Just as the stone was removed, the veil had already been torn, and the way into the holiest place is open for all.

Believer, the same Spirit that rolled away that stone dwells in you. You live in the power of His resurrection. You are no longer sealed in by the weight of sin or fear. You are alive unto God, clothed in righteousness, and crowned with victory. You walk in the light of the One who is risen, and because He lives, you live also.

Strategic Use In Gameplay

Rolled Away Stone functions as a high-impact control tool, shutting down your opponent’s most formidable threats with surgical precision. More than just removal, this Event carries synergy potential in decks built around Event triggers, especially those that benefit from exile or playing value-oriented Event sequences.

Synergies and Plays:

Removal Card: Perfectly counters late-game powerhouses, ensuring your opponent’s biggest units are gone for good rather than temporarily disabled.
Event Synergy: Cards that activate on Events or track how many Events you’ve played benefit greatly from this impactful play.
Control Strategy: Solidifies board control, clears the way for your own threats or swing turns without fear of retaliation.
