The Stone the Builders Rejected
On the last week of his life, Jesus reminded his listeners that the Bible had had made an unusual promise. The stone the builders rejected, he said, quoting Psalm 118:22, would one day become the “cornerstone.” (Matthew 21:42)
“The Stone the Builders Rejected” is a virtual walk-through of Jerusalem that will help your audience picture the last week of Jesus’ life better than ever before. It includes your choice of either a PowerPoint or Keynote presentation. If you have a regular PC, you’ll want the PowerPoint presentation. If you have a Mac, you’ll want the Keynote presentation.
The video clips in this presentation will take your audience to the Mount of Olives, the Temple Mount, down today’s streets of the “Via Dolorosa,” and even underneath those streets to find the Via Dolorosa Jesus knew! You’ll see footage from the Kidron Valley, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, an ancient quarry underneath the Old City, Gordon’s Calvary and the Garden Tomb.
Perfect for any presentation related to the week of Passion, these video clips will find use again and again in some of the most important passages in the entire Bible.
And seeing the skull-like cliff of Gordon’s Calvary, it is impossible to miss the fulfillment of the ancient prophecy Jesus quoted. The crumbling rocks left behind are clear evidence that the builders of Jerusalem did, indeed, reach points of their work that included “rejected” stones. In front of one of these “rejected” hills, Jesus died, becoming the “cornerstone” for our salvation!
You’ll find all you need to prepare your own sermon or lesson already included in this package. You’ll have preparation notes, links to instructional videos, presentation notes and even Bible study handouts. You can change the PowerPoint or Keynote presentations to suit your needs. You can edit the Bible study handouts or create your own with the extra photos we’ve provided.
It’s all here, ready for you to “bring Israel” to your audience!
