Zechariah 3-6

Zechariah joins Isaiah and Jeremiah in referring to Christ Jesus as God’s Righteous Branch. “He will reign as King.” Zechariah alludes to the temple He will build. [6:12]

We are the temple Christ is building. We are not a “bricks and mortar” building, but we are “being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.” [1 Pet. 2:5] We are “lively stones” or stones that are alive. Each stone is essential. Can you imagine a wall with stones missing? No!

Treat your Christian brother and sister as an important, lively stone that has a critical placement in God’s House.
