belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of Him Who called

- rejected by men but chosen by God

and precious to Him- you also, like

living stones, are being built into a spiritual

house to be a holy priesthood, offering

spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God

through Jesus Christ. For in Scripture it says:

“See, I lay a stone in Zion,

a chosen and precious cornerstone,

and the one who trusts in Him

will never be put to shame.”

Now to you who believe, this stone is precious.

But to those who do not believe,

“The stone the builders rejected has

become the capstone,”

“A stone that causes men to stumble

and a rock that makes them fall.”

They stumble because they disobey

the message- which is also what

they were destined for.

But you are a chosen people, a royal

priesthood, a holy nation, a people

belonging to God, that you may declare

the praises of Him Who called you

out of darkness into His wonderful light.

(I. Peter 2.4-9).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of

Him Who called you out of darkness into His wonderful light.

Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God;

once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

(I. Peter 2.9 & 10)

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

a royal priesthood, a holy nation

God’s own special people, that you

may set forth the wonderful deeds

and display the virtues and perfections

of Him Who called you out of darkness

into His marvelous light.

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS

FOREVERMORE!
