Genesis 11:3 “And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them throughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter.”
1 Peter 2:5 “Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.”
Babylon is built with bricks, while the house of God is built with living stones. Man creates bricks, God creates stones. May we reflect on our lives and all we are building. Though they may reach into the heavens, our brick structures are worthless in God’s sight. He is ONLY desired in constructing a spiritual house founded on the corner stone, Jesus Christ Himself.
