Christ is the living Stone. People did not accept him. But God chose him. God places the highest value on him.
5 You also are like living stones. As you come to him you are being built into a house for worship. There you will be holy priests. You will offer spiritual sacrifices. God will accept them because of what Jesus Christ has done.
So i am going to continue in 1 Peter 2. Above you see the two verses. Here in the first verse you see that Christ is the living stone! When Christ was off preaching not all accepted Him and we still see that today, that some just do not accept that He was the Son of God! No matter what we think or what we do or if we accept Him as Christ or not, God still chose Him and placed Him with high value. Christ is the most valuable possession any one can have!!
It goes on to say in the next verse that we too are like living stones. We are being build and made into a house of worship unto God. We are valuable to God as well!He loves us and wants good for us. We need to let Him make us into what he wants. And God will accept our sacrifices of praise to Him because of what Christ did for us on the cross!
