"And the house, when it was in building, was built of stone made ready before it was brought thither: so that there was neither hammer nor axe nor any tool of iron heard in the house, while it was in building"I Kings 6:7.

Isn't it remarkable that every stone was beautifully constructed at a place far away from the Temple sight -- and then put together perfectly on location. And these weren't small stones either -- these were great BIG stones, made far away and then and placed in perfect precision. (1 Kings 5:17) The Holy Spirit is erecting a magnificent temple today! And each stone -- that is, each of us -- has been carefully cut from this world's dark quarry, perfectly chiseled and smoothed to fit into a specific special spot within a growing structure -- upon which our Messiah is the chief cornerstone! Brothers & Sisters, you are a chosen and precious stone! Let's allow the Spirit of God to chisel us this upcoming new year! God desires to smooth out our rough edges so that we will be built into a glorious Temple unto the Lord. CAUTION - - UNDER CONSTRUCTION!
