The Cornerstone

Feb 16, 2025    Kadijah Gabriel

Continuing through Acts 4, Kadijah Gabriel focuses on Jesus as the cornerstone, the firm foundation upon which our faith must be built. Drawing from Peter’s bold declaration before the religious leaders, she highlights how faith must be deeply rooted in Christ alone, rather than shifting, unstable ground. Using architectural metaphors, Kadijah compares a faith built on Christ to enduring structures like the Empire State Building, versus a faith built on weak foundations, like the Leaning Tower of Pisa. She challenges believers to evaluate whether their faith, relationships, and decisionsare firmly grounded in Christ or leaning toward collapse.

Kadijah also emphasizes the importance of Christ-centered relationships, encouraging believers to build connections with people who are anchored in the same source—whether in friendships, partnerships, or spiritual accountability. She warns against taking God’s faithfulness for granted, using Israel’s history as a cautionary tale. The message concludes with a call to stand firm on the cornerstone of Jesus, embracing His power, stability, and unshakable love.
