“As it is written, Behold I am laying in Zion a Stone that will
make men stumble, a Rock that will make them fall; But He Who Believes In Him [who adheres to, trusts in, and relies on
Him] Shall Not Be Put To Shame Nor
Be Disappointed In His Expectations..”
To: ALL WHO HAVE EARS TO HEAR
From: GOD THE FATHER, THE LORD
JESUS CHRIST HIS SON and Ministered through the HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD, The Helper, that He may be
with you forever. [John 14:16]
Subject: MY WORD; John 1:1 (NKJV) 1 In the
beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:14 (NKJV) 14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us,
and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full
of grace and truth.
Psalm 63:1–11 (The Living Bible) A psalm of David when he
was hiding in the wilderness of Judea. 1 O God, my God! How I search for you! How I thirst for you in this
parched and weary land where there is no water. How I long to find you! 2
How I wish I could go into your sanctuary to see your strength and glory, 3
for your love and kindness are better to me than life itself. How I praise you!
4 I will bless you as long as I live, lifting up my hands to you in
prayer. 5 At last I shall be
fully satisfied; I will praise you with great joy. 6 I lie awake at
night thinking of you—7 of how much you have helped me—and how I
rejoice through the night beneath the protecting shadow of your wings. 8
I follow close behind you, protected by your strong right arm. 9
But those plotting to destroy me shall go down to the depths of hell. 10
They are doomed to die by the sword, to become the food of jackals. 11
But I will rejoice in God. All who trust in him exult, while liars shall be
silenced.
Luke 2:40–47 (NASB95) 40 The Child continued to
grow and become strong, increasing in wisdom; and the grace of God was upon
Him. 41 Now His parents went to Jerusalem every year at the Feast of
the Passover. 42 And when He became twelve, they went up there according
to the custom of the Feast; 43 and as they were returning, after
spending the full number of days, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem. But
His parents were unaware of it, 44 but supposed Him to be in the
caravan, and went a day’s journey; and they began looking for Him among
their relatives and acquaintances. 45 When they did not find Him,
they returned to Jerusalem looking for Him. 46 Then, after three
days they found Him in the temple,
sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them and asking them
questions. 47 And all who heard Him were amazed at His understanding
and His answers.
Matthew 21:44 (The Living Bible) 44 All who stumble on this rock of truth shall be broken, but those it
falls on will be scattered as dust.”
Isaiah 27:6–9 (NASB95) 6 In the days
to come Jacob will take root, Israel will blossom and sprout, And they will
fill the whole world with fruit. 7 Like the striking of Him who has
struck them, has He struck them? Or like the slaughter of His slain, have they
been slain? 8 You contended with them by banishing them, by driving
them away. With His fierce wind He has expelled them on the day of the
east wind. 9 Therefore through this Jacob’s iniquity will be
forgiven; And this will be the full price of the pardoning of his sin: When he makes all the altar stones like
pulverized chalk stones; When Asherim and incense altars will not stand.
Isaiah 8:14–15 (CJB) 14 He is there to be a sanctuary. But for both the houses of Isra’el he will be a stone to stumble over,
a rock obstructing their way; a trap and a snare for the inhabitants of
Yerushalayim. 15 Many of them will stumble and fall, be broken and
trapped and captured.
Romans 9:25–33 (NASB95) 25 As He says
also in Hosea, “I will call those who
were not My people, ‘My people,’
And her who was not beloved, ‘beloved.’ ” 26 “And it shall be that in the place where it was
said to them, ‘you are not My
people,’ There they shall be
called sons of the living God.”
27 Isaiah cries out concerning Israel, “Though the number of the sons of
Israel be like the sand of the sea,
it is the remnant that will be saved; 28 for the Lord will execute His word on the earth,
thoroughly and quickly.” 29 And just as
Isaiah foretold, “Unless the Lord of Sabaoth had left to us a posterity,
We would have become like Sodom, and would have resembled Gomorrah.” 30 What shall we say then?
That Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, attained righteousness, even
the righteousness which is by faith; 31 but Israel, pursuing a law
of righteousness, did not arrive at that law. 32 Why? Because
they did not pursue it by faith, but as though it were by
works. They stumbled over the stumbling
stone, 33 just as it is written, “Behold,
I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense,
And he who believes in Him will not be disappointed.”
Romans
9:30–33 (AMP) 30 What shall we say then? That Gentiles who did not
follow after righteousness [who did not seek salvation by right relationship to
God] have attained it by faith [a righteousness imputed by God, based on and
produced by faith], 31 Whereas Israel, though ever in pursuit of a
law [for the securing] of righteousness (right standing with God), actually did
not succeed in fulfilling the Law. 32 For what reason? Because [they
pursued it] not through faith, relying [instead] on the merit of their works
[they did not depend on faith but on what they could do]. They have stumbled over the Stumbling Stone. 33 As it is
written, Behold I am laying in Zion a Stone that will make men stumble, a Rock
that will make them fall; but he who believes in Him [who adheres to, trusts
in, and relies on Him] shall not be put to shame nor be disappointed in
his expectations.
Isaiah 28:16 (Tanakh) 16 Assuredly, Thus said the Lord God:
“Behold, I will found in Zion, Stone by
stone, A tower of precious cornerstones, Exceedingly firm; He who trusts need
not fear.
[Please Note: Always Read the Word of God in Context,
reading the entire chapter or book, asking the Holy Spirit of the Living God to
give you the interpretation. 2
Peter 1:16–21 (Williams) 16
For it was not mere stories of fancy that we followed when we told
you of the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we had been
eyewitnesses of His majesty. 17 For when He received such honor and
glory from God the Father, when from the majestic glory there was borne to Him
a voice like this, “This is my Son, my Beloved, in whom I take delight.” 18
we heard this voice ourselves borne from heaven while we were with Him on that
sacred mountain. 19 So we have the message of the prophets more
certainly guaranteed. Please pay
attention to this message as to a lamp that is shining in a dismal place, until
the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts; 20 because
you recognize this truth above all else, that
no prophecy in Scripture is to be interpreted by one’s own mind, 21
for no prophecy has ever yet originated in man’s will, but men who were led by
the Holy Spirit spoke from God.]
Philippians 2:9–11 (The Living
Bible)9 Yet it was because of this that God raised
him up to the heights of heaven and gave him a name which is above every other
name, 10 that at the name of
Jesus every knee shall bow in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11
and every tongue shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God
the Father.
