A Whole New Significance

Sermon Outline

Paul gives three incredible consequences of your new status in Christ. In Him, you are:

1. Fellow Citizens of His Kingdom (2:19a)
2. Full Members of His Family (2:19b-20)
3. Fully Part of His Holy Temple (2:21)

Quotes:

"If we would, as wise master-builders, really build up the Church, we must be careful as to our foundation at the first; and upon that foundation we must keep on building to the end." ~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon

1 Peter 2:5: "you also, as living stones, are being built up as a spiritual house for a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ."
