Why did the very people waiting for the Messiah reject Him when He came? In this episode, Dr. Abidan Shah unpacks why Jesus became a stumbling block to many in Israel—especially the Pharisees. They wanted affirmation for their righteousness, but Jesus called them to repentance and faith in Him alone.
We’ll explore:

  • How Isaiah and the Psalms predicted the Messiah as both cornerstone and stumbling stone.
  • Why Jesus refused to endorse the Pharisees’ system of works and tradition.
  • How this rejection fulfilled prophecy and revealed the true path to God—through Christ, not credentials.
  • What this means for us today when we try to reach God on our own terms.

This conversation exposes the heart of the gospel: salvation doesn’t come through religion or ritual, but through the one they stumbled over—the one who became our cornerstone.
