Our Ekklesia will be gathering for simple fellowship tomorrow and edifying one another with these Scriptures, as lively or living stones used to build a spiritual house and an holy priesthood...doing what? Offering up spiritual sacrifices of course. 1Co 3:11 For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Psa 118:22 The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner. Isa 28:16 Therefore this says the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believes shall not make haste. 1Pe 2:1-12 (1) Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings, (2) As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that you may grow thereby: (3) If so be you have tasted that the Lord is gracious. (4) To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious, (5) You also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. (6) Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believes on him shall not be confounded. (7) Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner, (8) And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed. (9) But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that you should show forth the praises of him who has called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: (10) Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy. (11) Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul; (12) Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation. I hope you all will see and know Christ as a Fantastic Faultless Foundation upon which God is building His Holy Temple. Eph 2:19-22 (19) Now therefore you are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; (20) And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; (21) In whom all the building fitly framed together grows unto an holy temple in the Lord: (22) In whom you also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit. Blessings from Michael37.

Hillsong - Cornerstone (Lyrics) -Verse 1- My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus' blood and righteousness I dare not trust the sweetest frame but wholly trust in Jesus' name [Verse 1] -Chorus- Christ alone, Cornerstone Weak made strong, in the Savior's love Through the storm He is Lord, Lord of All -Verse 2- When darkness seems to hide His face I rest on His unchanging grace In every high and stormy gale My anchor holds within the veil My anchor holds within the veil [Chorus] He is Lord, Lord of all [Chorus 2x] -Verse 3- Then He shall come with trumpets sound Oh, may I then in Him be found Dressed in His righteousness alone faultless, stand before the throne
