What does it mean for Jesus to be a living rock?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus as a living rock means He is the source of eternal life and sustains believers as living stones in the spiritual temple.

1 Peter 2:4 describes Jesus as a 'living stone,' indicating that He is not only the foundation of the church but also alive, contributing to the spiritual vitality of His people. Unlike physical stones in a temple, believers, as 'living stones,' are built upon Christ, receiving life and sustenance from Him. This illustrates the dynamic relationship between Christ and His followers, where spiritual life flows from Him to His church.
