The Household of God?
25014 NQ
Ephesians 2:20–22 … built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone, :21 in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord. :22 In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit.
Read the context: Ephesians 2
Ponder:
? To which "apostles and prophets" does this refer? How do we know? (There is an untold number of people who have claimed to be apostles and prophets)
? What about Jesus Christ makes Him the "cornerstone" of His "holy temple?"
? What is this "holy temple?"
? Who does the "building" of God's "holy temple?"
? What is the purpose of God's "holy temple?"
? What amazing truth is overlooked when we refer to physical buildings as "temples?"
