Isa 1:11-13

12 When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this at your hand, to tread my courts?
13 Bring no more vain oblations; incense is a is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.

33 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: (CHRIST THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS) and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
