God is constructing a New Testament temple but it isn’t a physical one build out of bricks of stone.  It is a spiritual temple constructed with born again believers in Christ as living stones!  You and I are like small bricks which God  is joining together into a glorious dwelling for His very presence.  In Christ, each of us is joined together with Jesus Himself being the chief CORNERSTONE . How blessed we are in Christ Jesus!   God has declared us to be:

a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His special possession!

God has done (and even now is still doing) all of this so that we who have a living faith in Christ Jesus may declare the praises of Him who called us out of darkness and into His marvelous light!
