Revelation 2:17

He who has an [spiritual] ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
To him who overcomes, I will give some of the hidden manna,
and I will give him a white stone,
and on the stone a new name written, which no one knows except him who receives it." A white stone was used in Roman courts and meant: not guilty. Even in sports, a white stone was used as a prize for victory. The winner received a white stone with his name on it. It could be God's name or the recipient's. Regardless, the meaning is that the believer owns something that only he has received.
