NOTES for Isa 28:14-22

The precious cornerstone is Christ. And the stone laid as Zion’s foundation is Christ’s sacrifice. It is the New Covenant in His blood. It is the Cross of the Lord, which became an altar and a symbol of the Lord’s love for people. Yes, He once scattered the nations and confused their languages. But He gathered everyone again and gave everyone the Savior of the world, the Son of Man. The Lord left us the same freedom and the same earth, but gave us the ability to recognize His image in people and gave us the gift of fellowship. Christians throughout the world recognize one another by the image of Christ in each of us. Borders and customs, ignorance of languages and an inability to communicate may divide us. But in prayer we all turn to Christ the Savior, Christ the Living One, Christ the Redeemer. We always remember and wear on our bodies the symbol of our salvation, the cross: the stone upon which the sacrifice for us was accomplished and the hope of Resurrection was granted.
