1 Peter 2:3-5
New Life Version
3 If you have tasted of the Lord, you know how good He is.
The Living Stone
4 Come to Christ as to a living stone. Men have put Him aside, but He was chosen by God and is of great worth in the sight of God. 5 You are to be as living stones in the building God is making also. You are His religious leaders giving yourselves to God through Jesus Christ. This kind of gift pleases God.
