Ephesians 2:17-22
17And 1He came and preached 2peace to you who were 3far away, and peace to those who were 4near;
18for through Him we both have 5our access in 6one Spirit to 7the Father.
19So then you are no longer 8strangers and aliens, but you are 9fellow citizens with the 10saints, and are of 11God’s household,
20having been 12built on 13the foundation of 14the apostles and prophets, 15Christ Jesus Himself being the 16corner stone,
2117in whom the whole building, being fitted together, is growing into 18a holy 19temple in the Lord,
22in whom you also are being 20built together into a 21dwelling of God in the Spirit.
