Just thinking about today's READ-WRITE-LIKE verse, which is:

Romans 9:33 as it is written, "Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense; and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame."

Couple quick thoughts...not earth shattering revelation by any means, but HEAVY stuff to consider.

Whenever the Scripture says, "as it is written", it is referring back to the Old Testament.

All Scripture is VERY important, but when Scripture references Scripture, you know it is of huge importance

• God tells us in His Word, He has laid a stone in Zion

• We know that this "Stone" in Jesus Christ

• This "Stone", the "Rock", is going to cause some to stumble

• This "Stone", the "Rock" is going to offend
