1 Cor. 10:4 is a totally different metaphor than the metaphor used in Matt. 16:18. In 1 Cor, the metaphor is in reference to the water flowing from the rock struck by Moses in Exodus. Christ is the rock. The water is the spirit. Christ is the source, therefore, which produces the spiritual water. In Matt. 16:18, the metaphor is about building a structure, not taking a drink from water flowing out a rock, and it makes no reference to Exodus. The building represents the Church, Peter the foundation stone, and Christ both the builder and the cornerstone. All building metaphors.
Sorry...The church is not a physical structure...The Body of Christ is a Spiritual Body...It is NOT a physical body...

No metaphors there at all...Peter is not a foundation stone...The whole thing is Spiritual...It's a Spiritual church with a Spiritual corner stone and a Spiritual foundation...And it's real...
