What does it mean to be built on the chief cornerstone?
Answered in 1 source
Being built on the chief cornerstone means our faith and life are centered on Jesus Christ, who provides the foundation for our salvation and spiritual stability (Ephesians 2:20).
Ephesians 2:20 describes Jesus Christ as the chief cornerstone of the Church, meaning that our entire spiritual structure rests upon Him. The cornerstone is the foundational stone upon which the entire building is aligned. For Christians, this indicates that our faith and lives should be rooted in Christ’s work, His teachings, and His righteousness. He is the source of our faith, and through Him, we are made whole and complete. This foundational relationship ensures that when trials arise, we remain anchored in Him, who is unshakable and immutable, safeguarding our spiritual integrity and growth.
