Do Not Stumble But Believe!


‘Do Not Stumble But Believe.’
1 Peter 2:7-8.
a)      For us who Believe the Lord is Precious.

1-     The Head of the Corner.
2-     A Stone of stumbling.
3-     A Rock of offence.
c)      These people stumble at the Word.
d)      They are disobedient.
e)      In the Foreknowledge of God they are appointed to this.
(This QT exhorts me: Do Not Stumble But Believe)

Colossians 3:11.

c)      This is the Circumcision of Christ and should be a part of every True Believer’s life.
(This Second one gives me understanding of Spiritual Circumcision)
