So that you may learn that through Him we ascend to the Father.
Why is He called the cornerstone?
So that you may learn that He supports us all.
Why is He called the lamb?
So that you may learn that He was sacrificed for our sake.
Why is He called life?
Because while we were dead in sin, He raised us up.
Why is He called light?
Because He brought us out of the darkness of deception.
Why is He called garment?Because we are clothed with Him in Baptism.
Why is He called table?
Because we partake of Him with the holy mysteries.
Why is He called house?
Because we live within Him.
Why is He called inhabitant?
Because we are His temples.
St. John Chrysostom
