The premise behind the film is that one of the ten ossuaries found might contain the bones of Jesus.

The Bible states however, that Jesus bodily and physically rose from the dead and therefore his bones will never be found. That people reject this message should not surprise us. The passage below states, “The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone.”

The stone of course, is our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. He has been rejected by many people down through the ages. He was rejected by his own people, including Jewish high priests and the members of the Sanhedrin, his own official representatives. He was rejected by Gentiles, the Roman government who put him to death. He continues to be rejected by people who make false claims about Jesus and deny that He rose from the dead.

Yet, let’s not forget this chief cornerstone has been rejected by us too. It’s possible that we can make our hearts “rock-hard” when it comes to receiving the message that Jesus is our Savior. When we cast aside the tough teachings of Jesus and the miraculous, we reject our Lord. When we rely on our own good works to earn merit with God, we reject Jesus. Anyone who rejects Jesus also rejects his forgiveness. Anyone who rejects Jesus remains in sin and the wrath of God remains on that person. Don’t be that person! Rather confess your sins to God and trust in Jesus’ forgiveness, which he won for you on the cross!

Jesus’ mission was to rise from the dead and become the chief cornerstone. His resurrection proves that our sin-debt has been paid and our ransom secured. God the Father has accepted the sacrifice His Son made on our behalf. Jesus’ mission was to be our Savior and His resurrection from the dead proves that He is! This good news is indeed “marvelous in our eyes!”

“The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone. This was the Lord’s doing; it is marvelous in our eyes.”  
— Psalm 118:22-23
