Title: Something that trips up     
    
    
    
    
    
     
     
     
     
 

 

Wherefore?     Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law .     For they stumbled at that stumblingstone; - Rom 9:32
The Mosaic Law became a stumplingstone because they did not understand its purpose .     

God wanted Relationship, not mechanical Obedience .   

As it is written, Behold, I lay in Zion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whoever believes on him shall not be ashamed.    - Rom 9:33
Even while Israel was misunderstanding the Law, they misunderstood Christ Jesus when He Taught and Healed and performed Miracles in their presence .     

The reason they stumbled at both the Law and Grace was their Pride .
