Getting acquainted with Mount Zion

[Reba1]

According to 1 Peter. 1:10-12, the prophets have a message for the Church today.--- so looking at Isa.28:16, which Scripture is quoted in 1Peter 2:6, and we know from the context the writer is spof the Church, I must ask the Holy Spirit to reveal His living word to me;
1Peter 2:6 This verse speaks of a building , Who is building it and where He is building it! And we know that the Lord Jesus is the Builder, we know that His Church is the building , and we know that He is the Stone--cornerstone-- "Chief Corner Stone"
Psa 118:22 Matt 21:33-46 Eph 2:20
Upon what is He building His Church? Of course we go to Matt. 16:18 and we hear Jesus saying ."Upon this Rock I will build my Church, : The confession of Peter, that Jesus is the Christ , the Son of the living God !What a Rock that is ! The Stone the sure foundation! Matt.7 :24,25

Where is this building His Church? He said, "Behold , I lay in Zion a chief corner stone! We know He isn't speaking of Mt. Zion in the land of Israel for His Church is world-wide. You and I have been called "living stones", in His building and we are not in the natural land of Israel! Therefore we know He isn't putting His Church in any particular of real estate nor geographical area- for His Church is a spiritual body. Now the prophets Isaiah and Micah tell us that in the last days (church age) the house of the Lord will be established on the mountain. Isa2:1-3 and Micah 4:1,2 We believe that His House and HIs Church are one in the same. Heb.3:6 tells us that we are His house. ( He dwells within us). Acrs15:16,17 The Holy Spirit revealed to James at the meeting that Amos spoke of the same thing- the Gentiles being saved and he called it David's Tabernacle. Amos 9:11,12 and Isa. 16:5 . Speaks of a spiritual tabernacle . Amos 9:11,12 and Isa16:5. Speaks of a spiritual tabernacle, not a natural in the New Testament. Reading in 2 Chron.5:1,2 Solomon took the Ark off Mt Zion where David built his tabernacle. Type of the Church, made up of both Jews and Gentiles . Eph.2:13-22. 1 Chron. 16:1 tells us of a setting it up on Mt Zion The mountain of the Lord! Then we read in the Psalms 132:143-16- this is to let us know this is the mountain the Lord has chosen as His habitation- along with Eph.2 :22 .

Heb12:22..... Psa 2:6

In the days of Israel's kingdom there was a promised land , in the days of Christ's kingdom there is all the world. Abe's true legacy.

@Dave M I thought this might interest you for study. I dont see the Cross of Christ as a dividing point i see it as the 'bridge' that brings the old and new together.

Using the term Cross of Christ as a term meaning the prophesies' of His birth, His life ,His death . resurrection and return the whole package.

History was arranged for the purpose of the cross, the world wide establishment of the kingdom. The call to repentance expands from the Jordan valley to the ends of the earth. So Zion, the new place of meeting is not limited to any geographical area but is anywhere and everywhere His people live.
