I'm sorry but I was going 500 mph yesterday. I thought you were asking about David's descendents. The reference to the temple I gave off the top of my head as I did the living stones. You are right. 1Peter 2:5 is the other.

All throughout scripture you will see references to the people as the true Temple, the True Throne, the True Land. A person is a stone of the temple. We are in Christ. He is the Temple. We are the City of Jerusalem, living stones. You know the rest.

We don't worship the exterior monuments and we sure as heck never worship ourselves, but people who reject the Word of God, whether it's the Prophets or the Torah, will get lost every time.

Ok, I'm caught back up. I had not noticed the 1 Pe 2:5 reference before and linked it with the Corinthians passage. Ignoring the True Throne and True Land statements, can you now explain how you make the case that the living stone here is actually a "book"?
