1. IMPORTANCE of the Foundation

C. The Temple of Solomon was built upon the foundations in MOUNT MORIAH
D. The City of God, whose Builder and Maker is God, is a City with TWELVE Foundations
E. The NEW TESTAMENT also has Proper Foundations
F. A Solid Foundation has Certain STONES
1) The Chief CORNERSTONE is Christ Jesus
2) And then the HEADSTONE or CAPSTONE is also Christ Jesus
3. WHO or WHAT is the Foundation?
The foundation of the Church is not built on personalities of the apostles or prophets, but on Christ Jesus…WHO He is…WHAT He has done… and ALL He said!
Where the revelation of WHO Jesus is exists, THERE is the foundation of the Church that Jesus is building.
Either He is Lord OF all, or He isn’t Lord AT all.

Talk About It

Discussion Questions:
1. Have you ever built a home and decided to have the foundation checked? If so, how did that work out? Why would this be important to you?
2. What is the correlation between silver and redemption in the Bible? How would you explain it?
3. What is the significance of Jesus being the Cornerstone and the Capstone as it relates to a building?

Next Step:
How would you help someone to know if they’re truly a part of God’s Church or not as it relates to revelation and foundation?
