Why do some people find Christ a stumbling block?

Answered in 1 source

Some find Christ a stumbling block because they reject His message and seek salvation through their works (1 Peter 2:7-8).

For many, Christ becomes a stumbling block due to their disobedience and reliance on personal merit rather than His grace. In 1 Peter 2:7-8, it is outlined that those who are unbelieving see Christ as an offense because they misunderstand the necessity of His sacrifice. This rejection ultimately leads to their spiritual blindness, making them blind to the gospel's truth, as they prefer their own efforts over the sufficiency of Christ’s redemptive work.
