Ok then lets look at the following scriptures. Eph 2:21 in whom the whole building, being fitted together, is growing into a holy temple in the Lord, Eph 2:22 in whom you also are being built together into a dwelling of God in the Spirit. My point is that since Jesus and the apostles were the foundation then we are building upon their foundation.What happens when a foundation is left to stand with nothing on it.Look at this verse... 1 Pet 2:5 you also, as living stones, are being built up as a spiritual house for a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. Christ is the foundation upon which we build. Also look at this verse.. 1 Cor 3:10 According to the grace of God which was given to me, like a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another is building on it. But each man must be careful how he builds on it. Another way the we build up the body of Christ can be found here... 1 Cor 14:26 What is the outcome then, brethren? When you assemble, each one has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has a tongue, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification. The house of God is You and Me built as living stones upon Christ as our foundation and cornerstone. Hope this helps.. Van |

Greetings Van! This doesn't address the post! My point was the foundation has been established and the "building up" is done on top of the foundation. The foundation has no need of change. What good would it do to change the foundation if the "building up" has already started? Your post sounds as if I've said something I didn't and or your agreeing without realizing it????? Or I guess one other option would be I just completely misunderstand your last post :-) By the way, it is nice to have you on the forum! It is a grand place to discuss the word with our Brothers and Sisters in Christ! By Faith Brother, Steve |

Well, said, Brother Steve! "So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built on the FOUNDATION of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone, in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord." (Ephesians 2:19-21 ESV) People always want to make it the Word plus something or other. In Him, Doc |
