II Corinthians 4:5-7
"For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake. For God, Who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us."

"For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if any man build upon this foundation...." I Corinthians 3:11-12
Beloved, what are YOU building"? "…Wood, hay, stubble…"? Alas! ALL of that must PASS THROUGH HIS FIRE – AND PERISH! But IF you are wise, then are you building of "…gold, silver, precious stones" (see I Cor. 3:12-15). Refer again to Revelation 21:18-19, and you will behold how THESE constitute the very substance of that building WHICH IS THE LAMB'S WIFE!
