"Of surpassing beauty and unrivaled splendor was the palatial building which Solomon and his associates erected for God and His worship. Garnished with precious stones, surrounded by spacious courts with magnificent approaches, and lined with carved cedar and burnished gold, the temple structure, with its broidered hangings and rich furnishings, was a fit emblem of the living church of God on earth, which through the ages has been building in accordance with the divine pattern, with materials that have been likened to “gold, silver, precious stones,” “polished after the similitude of a palace.” 1 Corinthians 3:12 ; Psalm 144:12 . Of this spiritual temple Christ is “the chief Cornerstone; in whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord.” Ephesians 2:20, 21 . PK 36.1"
"Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;"
Ellen White directly references 1 Corinthians 3:12 in this passage.
"That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; that our daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude of a palace:"
