1Pet.2:6 Because it is contained in Scripture, "Behold, I lay in Zion a chief cornerstone, chosen, and precious: He who believes in him will not be disappointed."{Isaiah 28:16} 2:7 For you who believe therefore is the honor, but for those who are disobedient, "The stone which the builders rejected, has become the chief cornerstone,"{Psalm 118:22} 2:8 and, "a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense."{Isaiah 8:14} For they stumble at the word, being disobedient, to which also they were appointed.

Why is the Christ so offensive to the Jewish faith, and offensive to most Christian's in our world? What is it that makes them water down the Christ into a meaningless idol? It is that Christ added nothing too their world, he adds nothing to mankind's system of things. If Christ were not forced upon the world seen of his time, the Jewish faith, none would have given him consideration, because there was no gains in Christ for their world. In other words, Christ did not come to reform their world, but instead stand in opposition too it by his life.

John 1:5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn't overcome{The word translated "overcome" (katelaben) can also be translated "comprehended." It refers to getting a grip on an enemy to defeat him.} it.

When a sinless person, the Christ, speaks, their action are in complete harmony with the truth. Subsequently, Christ actions, and words condemned us as sinner out of harmony with God. Moreover, Christ life and words condemned the god of their world, Satan, for his world was founded upon the first lie creating a massive lump of leavened bread producing death for all those eating of it. Christ stumbled idol worshiper, those Jews whom put faith in the legal mind of the law, which is a fleshly mind set upon judgment of leavened bread and all those eating of it.

John 3:21 But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his works may be revealed, that they have been done in God.

Exodus 13:3 Moses said to the people, "Remember this day, in which you came out from Egypt, out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand Yahweh brought you out from this place. No leavened bread shall be eaten.

Yes, blinded by the legal mind of people eating from the same laws that built this world, and which knits it together, laws created for the sinful flesh. Christ added nothing to this unleavened bread, he was different holy, righteous, and clean, separated of mankind's corrupt laws for sin, for he was without sin, the unleavened bread of God. Hence, rejected for being of no worth to their material gains, rejected because his words made no sense when weight against that which knitted their world together. Rejected as offensive, stumble over, because he was of no value to their life and world, thus we consider him as nothing.

Isa. 53:3 He was despised, and rejected by men; a man of suffering, and acquainted with disease. He was despised as one from whom men hide their face; and we didn't respect him.

John 6:51 I am the living bread which came down out of heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. Yes, the bread which I will give for the life of the world is my flesh."

Rom.8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don't walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.{NU omits "who don't walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit"} 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.

Christ present was so powerful upon earth that even the Jews in all their combine efforts with pangs could not stop the witness of Christ Jesus life. Subsequently, Satan was defeated by Christ life on this earth, so he set about corrupting, watering down, the Christian's faith into little more than idol worship, making into a yeast kingdom where the practices of the flesh our condone by religious words of lawyers of faith, but still religion is nothing more than the same system of things of leavened bread as our world.

1 Corinthians 5:6 Your boasting is not good. Don't you know that a little yeast leavens the whole lump?

1 Corinthians 5:7 Purge out the old yeast, that you may be a new lump, even as you are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, has been sacrificed in our place.

Thus, we find a very perplexing question from Christ for those of this corrupt system of things boasting in the Christian's faith, and what is that? Christ ask a question of the sheep and the goats at the end of our world, but neither knew the answer of when they have done good, or bad too Christ brothers? Now please contemplated this thought incorporating the words above into them, and you will know why neither knew the truth of Christ life indwelling his brothers upon earth.

1 John 4:5 They are of the world. Therefore they speak of the world, and the world hears them.

1 John 3:13 Don't be surprised, my brothers, if the world hates you.

1 John 5:13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.
