Over and over again, Jesus Christ is presented to us as the foundation and the cornerstone of God’s house. In the first century, the cornerstone was the first stone that was laid in the foundation. It was also the main stone of the building. It aligned and united all the other stones together. Each of the stones in the building was measured by the cornerstone. The building had to be in complete conformity with the cornerstone, else it could not be approved. Jesus Christ is the main stone in the foundation of God’s house; all things are measured by Him.
