The Stone of the Builders

Wednesday, November 25, 2020

Capitalism had its roots among Jewish merchants and moneylenders in the Middle Ages. Communism also has Jewish roots; built by a Jewish man, Karl Marx. In Psalm 118, it is written, 'The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.' In other words, the Jewish people were to be the builders of God's kingdom. But in rejecting the cornerstone, Messiah, they built other houses that ended up empty. That's why communism had to fail, and that's why capitalism, without God, is empty. Without the Cornerstone, everything we do becomes empty. You too are called to be a builder and one way or another you're building - for good or bad. But if you build on anything other than Messiah, the cornerstone, then your life will be empty. What are you building on right now; yourself, money, career, looks, abilities, or reputation? None of these are the Cornerstone. Stop building an empty house, and an empty life. Come back to the foundation and ground everything you do upon the rock that the builders rejected, Messiah, the Cornerstone.
