~~~HEADSTONE OF THE CORNER~~

~~"The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner."
---(Psalm 118:22) --

~~That this enigmatic verse is really a Messianic prophecy is evident from the fact that Christ Himself applied it this. "Jesus said unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?" (Matthew 21:42). The Jewish leaders had refused Him as their Messiah, but the day would come when they would have to confess their sad mistake.

Later, addressing them concerning "Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, who God raised form the dead," the apostle Peter said: "This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner" (Acts 4:10-11).

Peter referred to it again in his epistle: "Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious:...Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner, and a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient" (1 Peter 2:6-8).
--Christ is the Chief Corner Stone which was rejected. Jesus is Messiah~
