The Living Stone and a Chosen People
4 As you come to him, the living Stone6--rejected by men but chosen by God7 and precious to him-- 5 you also, like living stones, are being built8 into a spiritual house9 to be a holy priesthood,10 offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.11Scripture quoted by permission.
