stumble at the word, being disobedient:

whereunto also they were appointed.”

You've heard me quote John 14:15 many

times, and this passage in 1 Peter chapter 2

lines up with John 14:15, “If ye love me, keep

my commandments.” And we find two groups

of people in this passage, especially in verse 7.

We hear a lot today about fake news. What

about fake disciples? Notice the two groups of

people. In one group, the Lord is precious. He

means everything to them. They value Him

above everything. But the other group is

always stumbling at the Word of the Lord

Jesus. To me, this is one of the clearest verses

in the Bible about the divide between the lost

and the saved. Again, we have the wheat and

the tares, the sheep and the goats.
