1 Peter 2:4-8

As you come to him, the living Stone, who was rejected by men, but chosen by God and precious to him - you too are like living stones as you are being built into a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. For as it says in Scripture: "Behold, I am placing my chosen and precious cornerstone in Zion. Anyone trusting in him will never be disappointed." To you who are trusting, this stone is precious, but to you who are unbelieving, "the stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone," and, "a stumbling stone, a rock on the offense." They stumble at the word and are unbelieving, which is their destiny.
