How do we know Jesus is the cornerstone of our faith?

Answered in 7 sources

The New Testament affirms Jesus as the cornerstone, as seen in Scripture references like 1 Peter 2:6, which aligns with Isaiah's prophecy.

The affirmation of Jesus as the cornerstone is rooted in both the Old and New Testaments. Isaiah 28:16 presents Him as a foundation stone, while 1 Peter 2:6 reiterates this truth, stating, 'Behold, I lay in Zion a chief cornerstone, elect, precious.' This concept reinforces the belief that Christ is central to the faith, fulfilling God’s promises. As believers, understanding Jesus as the cornerstone signifies recognizing Him as essential to our salvation, assurance, and identity as the church.
