 He says this is a stone of stumbling, it's a rock of offense. People stumble over Jesus, don't they? They're just offended by Jesus. Because Jesus stands there towering over the affairs of time. Jesus stands there saying, I am the way and the truth and the life, and no one comes to the Father but by me. Jesus stands there and he says, I am God incarnate. Jesus stands there and says, at my name every knee will bow and every tongue confess. He is a stone over which men and women bow.
