"We are the dead..." from, "In Flanders Fields" by John McCrae

Revelation 1:6 
Priests.  Kings.  Here we have echoes of Peter and those living stones that conform to the cornerstone (1 Peter 2:5).  The cornerstone is first and is set in time – conforming to the eternal, yes, but set in time.  Salvation gets started in time – at the cross!  You didn’t get chosen before time.  God doesn't work things out that way.  He works in time.  He came to die on the cross.  There's no draft board in Christianity...you have to enlist.  Come to the cross.
