Passage: 1 Peter 2:4-8

Speaker: Brian Land

Series: 1 Peter

Category: Grace Brevard

Keywords: connected, unity, priesthood, cornerstone

God is the great architect of a new creation, starting with the True Living Cornerstone of Jesus from whom he builds all believers alongside one another into the dwelling place of God himself, to whom we sacrifice our lives by aligning ourselves to his trueness. In other words: Creation is broken and has fallen down shattered, and so God sent his Son Jesus to re-make creation by dwelling among us as one of us so that he could, by his sacrifice, remake us into a new creation that is interconnected with one another (like lego building blocks) as well as personally and corporately indwelt by the Holy Spirit.
