A Living Stone

As you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious, you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭2‬:‭4‬-‭5‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Entry:

What I love about this passage is the imagery it contains. Jesus, the living stone, is the foundation upon which we as believers build. It also emphasizes the connection with fellow believers in building a strong spiritual house as a community. The journey of faith is not meant to be taken alone, but together with the body of Christ.
