so it became
1 Corinthians 12:20
and now, indeed, [are] many members, and one body;
Ephesians 2:20-22
20
being built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being chief corner -[stone],
21
in whom all the building fitly framed together doth increase to an holy sanctuary in the Lord,
22
in whom also ye are builded together, for a habitation of God in the Spirit.
1 Peter 2:4
to whom coming -- a living stone -- by men, indeed, having been disapproved of, but with God choice, precious,
1 Peter 2:5
and ye yourselves, as living stones, are built up, a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
