Building Blocks
Scripture
Passage: 1
Peter 2:4-6
Many buildings now are built from cement
blocks, baked clay bricks, wood or mud. In Jesus' time, important
buildings, like temples, were built of stones. We usually
think of the "church" as being the building where
we meet to worship God. But it is really the people
who are the church. We
are the church that God is building, person by person.
Questions:
1. What did they use for building in Jesus' time?
They used stones.
2. What is a church made of?
It is made of people who have
accepted Christ as Saviour.
3. Who builds
the church?
It is God who builds the church.
Memory verse: 1
Corinthians 3:16
Don't you realize that all of you together are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God lives in you? (NLT)
