Good Morning

Behold, I lay in Zion a chief corner stone, elect, precious and he who believes in Him will by no means be put to shame.  Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who are disobedient, the stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone.  A stone of stumbling and a rock of offense.  They stumble being disobedient to the word to which they were appointed. (From 1 Peter 2.7-8).  In verse 9 Peter speaks to and of those who follow Christ (Christians), those who believe, obey in all faithfulness, he says you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation,  His own special people, that you may proclaim the praise of Him who called you out of darkness and into His marvelous light.  It is Christians who make up Christ's church (Matthew 16.18), the only church that was purchased by His very own blood, (Acts 20.28).
