Capstone

Psalm 118:22-29

"The stone the builders rejected
has become the capstone;
the Lord has done this,
 and it is marvelous in our eyes.
This is the day the Lord has made;
let us rejoice and be glad in it.

O Lord, save us;
O Lord, grant us success.
Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord.
From the house of the Lord we bless you.
The Lord is God,
and He has made His light shine upon us.
With boughs in hand, join in the festal procession
up to the horns of the altar.

You are my God, and I will give you thanks;
You are my God, and I will exalt You.

Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good;
His love endures forever."

Without Jesus becoming the capstone of the new building, the Church, we have no reason to celebrate as Gentiles.  But since Jesus is the capstone of the new building, the Church, we are guaranteed all the promises of the Old Testament that were first given to Israel.

This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.  Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever.  Be thankful for our great God today.
