Verse 3
Rejected by the builders Christ became the cornerstone, foundation of our faith Building up as living stones Here on earth, remember us, O our God for goodThis Jesus is the stone that was rejected by you, the builders, which has become the cornerstone. And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. [Acts 4:11-12]For no one can lay a foundation other than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ
. [1
Cor
3:11]
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 Pet 2:4-5Slide12
