The Bible uses this construction analogy to show us how we ought to live. Each believer is part of God's church, contributing our talents and efforts to the kingdom of God. But the work we do must be done with integrity and commitment, so that it will survive the "fire" of suffering and trials. If the foundation we build is solid, it will support generations of believers who come after us!
