Names of Christ - Skandalon Petra

 


SKANDALON PETRA
(skan'-dal-on pet'-ra)
    ROCK OF OFFENSE

As it is written: "Behold, I lay in Zion a Stumbling Stone and Rock of Offense, And whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame."

Isaiah 28:16
So this is what The Lord GOD says: "See, I lay a Stone in Zion, a Tested Stone, a Precious Cornerstone, a Sure Foundation; the one who believes will never be shaken."

Romans 10:11, 13
It is just as the Scripture says: "Anyone who believes in Him will never be put to shame." ..... For whosoever shall call upon The Name of The Lord shall be saved.

GIVE ME JESUS - Fernando Ortega

    Putting all my hope in a rock may seem strange to you, but this Rock is God's Rock. The Living Chief Cornerstone upon which all other living stones are built. This edifice cannot be toppled, nor can it be torn down. We have built our hope of eternity and salvation upon God's Rock. Though the storms of life may whip against this Rock and Chief Cornerstone with their angry, divisive winds, they will not prevail. 
    We live because Christ Jesus lives. We stand because Christ stands. We are steadfast and immovable because our Savior Jesus Christ is steadfast and immovable. 
    The One Who created all things is The One Who died for us. A sinless Lamb He took our place on the cross, bearing all of our sins upon Himself. A conquering Lamb He rose from the land of the dead, becoming our Victor over sin, death, hell and the grave. He walked out of the tomb and into our hearts. Because He is The Foundation of our faith from time immemorial. 
    In what or whom have you placed your trust, your faith? If it is anything less than the blood of Jesus Christ and the resurrection of Jesus Christ, then you have erred and need to take a closer look at what God says and what you believe to be true. There is only one Truth and that Truth is JESUS CHRIST.

CHIEF CORNERSTONE

Acts 4:11
This Jesus is The Stone rejected by you builders, which has become the Cornerstone. 

Psalm 118:22
The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.

Isaiah 28:16
So this is what The Lord GOD says: "See, I lay a Stone in Zion, a Tested Stone, a precious Cornerstone, a Sure Foundation; the one who believes will never be shaken."

Jesus Christ is The Rock upon which all other Living Stones are built. Without Him there is no foundation and all who do not believe that Jesus Christ is LORD have built their beliefs on sand, which is no foundation at all and washes away with every wave. 
Jesus Christ is The Rock that won't move. It's why the believer can not only anchor in Him, but have Him as our Anchor. He is Strong. He is Steadfast. He is Immovable. He is Unshakable.

EXALTED

To raise up, to lift up

Acts 2:33
“He is The One Who is Exalted at the right hand of God and He has received from The Father The Promise which is concerning The Spirit of Holiness, and He has poured out this gift, which, behold, you are seeing and hearing.”

Acts 5:30,31
The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, Whom you had killed by hanging Him on a tree. God exalted Him to His right hand as Prince and Savior, in order to grant repentance and forgiveness of sins to Israel. 

Psalm 118:16
The right hand of The LORD is Exalted! The right hand of The LORD performs with valor!” 

Isaiah 6:1
In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw The Lord seated on a throne, high and Exalted; and the train of His robe filled the temple.

Isaiah 52:13
Behold, My Servant shall deal prudently, He shall be Exalted and extolled, and be very high.

John 3:13-15
No one has ascended into heaven except The One Who descended from heaven—The Son of Man. Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so The Son of Man must be lifted up, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. 

    Even now, we who believe that Jesus Christ is LORD, lift high His Name which is above all other names, that all who hear and see may believe and receive. Believe that He is indeed LORD of ALL and receive Him into their hearts. 
    The call to come and worship The KING of KINGS still goes out into the world, for The LORD GOD even yet extends His hand of Mercy and Lovingkindness to all who will reach out to Him and call on His Name. 
    From the depths of our hearts we cry out to God to forgive us. Forgive us for being self-infatuated, forgive us for not seeing Your hand at work in our lives, forgive us of all the unrighteous words we have spoken, forgive us of turning away from You and turning our hearts to handmade gods. Lord, we glorify Your Name, and Your Name alone. For in You is our Salvation. In You is our Peace. In You is our Hope alone. You, Lord, and none other. 
    Father, receive us into Your heart and make our hearts Your own. Fill us even now at this moment with Your precious Holy Spirit that Your Word would be revealed to us as we read it and Your Spirit applies it to our hearts and lives. Lead us and guide us and guard us. You have proven Yourself faithful right down to even the smallest request. Find us faithful, too, that we may rise when You send Your beloved Son to bring us home. 
    In Jesus' Most Beautiful Name,
Amen.
