Matthew 21:42 – To the CHRISTIAN, Jesus is our firm foundation, He is our cornerstone. We never have to stress ourselves out trying to keep our life from falling apart. He is the unmovable stone that we can build our lives on knowing that underneath us are His loving everlasting arms. To the JEWS, Jesus is a stumbling stone. “What then shall we say? That the Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have obtained it, righteousness that is by faith; but the people of Israel, who pursued the law as the way of righteousness, have not attained their goal. Why not? Because they pursued it not by faith but as if it were by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone. As it is written: “See, I lay in Zion a stone that causes people to stumble and a rock that makes them fall, and the one who believes in him will never be put to shame.” (Romans 9:30-33). We can have a choice, we can’t stand on Christ and make Him our foundation stone or we can reject Him and have Him fall on us and crush us. It is better to stand on the Rock than have the Rock stand on you. Father in Heaven, thank You for giving me a firm foundation.
