Wednesday, October 22nd | The Stone They Stumbled Over: Why Jesus Offended the Pharisees

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.Support the showDr. Shah writes a personal letter every week — reflections on Scripture, faith, and living it out with clarity and purpose. GET THE LETTER If you enjoyed the show, please like and follow our Facebook and Instagram pages, and also subscribe to our YouTube channel.
