1 Peter 2:3-5

International Children’s Bible

³ For you have already examined and seen how good the Lord is.

⁴ The Lord Jesus is the “stone”^[a] that lives. The people of the world did not want this stone. But he was the stone God chose. To God he was worth much. So come to him. ⁵ You also are like living stones. Let yourselves be used to build a spiritual temple—to be holy priests who offer spiritual sacrifices to God. He will accept those sacrifices through Jesus Christ.
