As promised by God...Jesus came to present His Kingdom on Earth...according to the will of the Father. For 3 1/2 years Jesus presented the Promised Kingdom to Israel according to the Father's will. Jesus and the message of the promised Kingdom were "rejected" by Israel. Scriptures teach Jesus was the stone the builders would reject. The King was rejected. The Kingdom message was rejected. As a result of Israel's rejection of the Messiah - Jews were dispersed and scattered around the globe.
As a result of Israel's rejection and Judgment from the Father... Jesus became the monumental cornerstone of Israel to be recognized around the globe. The crucifixion of Christ was God's cornerstone set into place. Jesus the cornerstone of God's great structure and foundation...will always be noticed and recognized. More importantly... all other stones will be set in reference to this initial corner stone, thus determining the position of the entire structure. The Gospel message of Christ's death burial, and resurrection has since became the vehicle God uses to reflect the chief cornerstone in Israel. Christ the head of the body and structure is God's plan for humanity. The great commission about Christ! How precious are those who carry the Gospel message throughout the highways of the earth! Jesus made reference to these highways in accordance to the Jews scatted around the globe.
Matt 22:9-10... Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage. So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.
Making Christ known around the globe is God's vehicle. Preparing people from every nation for the Rapture. Preparing for the marriage. Preparing for the Bride and Bridegroom. The Church and Israel uniting! Christ with all the raptured saints returning to Israel to set up the Kingdom! Israel rejected their Messiah. Jews were dispersed around the globe but the cornerstone was set! The Gentiles who were no people...became the vehicle God used to reach out to His elect Israel. Dispersed and scattered God still reaches out with mercy and love... to gather the Jew from the four corners of the Earth. He uses people to proclaim Christ. Therefore the Gospel according to the Scriptures...makes Christ known.
1 Peter 2:6-8...Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded. 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 offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.
