Our heavenly Father has ordained “A Specific Faith;” having a special quality (or power), that we could walk with Him in a very “sure” relationship; built on a “sure” foundation. [Pastor; Isa 28:16c]
The Lord, Jesus, is the “stone” of Daniel, and Isaiah; and the rejected “stone” of Matthew 21:42; destined to become “the head of the corner” (aka chief cornerstone).
[Dan 2:34; Isa 28:16; cf Ps 118:22]
As Christ was tempted, and tried; so shall our faith be tried, by fire; to prove it's praise worthiness, at Christ's appearing; that our faith would stand in the power of God. [Heb 4:15; 1 Pet 1:7; 1 Cor 2:5]
As a “man,” Christ's model (blueprint/example) for faith was His earthly father Abraham; the father of us all. [Pastor]
[1 Tim 2:5; Rom 4:16; cf Isa 51:1-2 “Look unto Abraham”]
Concerning that “Stone;” which was Christ, Isaiah concluded: “He that believeth on Him shall not be ashamed.” [Isa 28:16d/AMP]
ThenSingsMySoul:
WE ARE NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST
FOR IT IS GOD'S POWER OF SALVATION

TO EVERYONE THAT RECEIVES IT
WE SHALL HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE!
