His foundation is in the holy mountains.
For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
Abraham said unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. And he said, No, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.(Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which showed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom you have been now the betrayers and murderers: Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men:) Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore did he slew him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous. But now you seek to kill me, a man that has told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.
Nevertheless the foundation of God stands sure, having this seal, The Lord knows them that are his. And, let every one that names the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
For he looked for a city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal; And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel: On the east three gates; on the north three gates; on the south three gates; and on the west three gates. And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defiles, neither whatsoever works abomination or makes a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.
And these things will they do unto you because they have not known the Father, nor me. O righteous Father, the world has not known you: but I have known you, and these have known that you have sent me.
Pilate, therefore, said unto him, Are you a king then? Jesus answered You says that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth hears my voice.
Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? And they said, Some say that you are John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. He says unto them, But whom say you that I am? And Simon Peter answered and said, You are the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed are you, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood have not revealed it unto you, but my Father which is in heaven. And I say also unto you, That you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give unto you the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever you shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever you shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
But to him that works not, but believes on him that justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. Even as David also describes the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputes righteousness without works, Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.
God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.
And he said, Who are you, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom you persecute: it is hard for you to kick against the pricks.
According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust. And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry; Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief. And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

Someone spoke against one of the prophets as an example of disobedience and I heard another speaking against the apostles of the Lamb as an example of doubting God and disobedience. Not realizing that the children of God are like unto the prophets and the apostles, and also the Lord Jesus Christ. Speaking against their personalities is killing them afresh for they are the foundation of the Kingdom of God or the Kingdom of Truth. You can't enter the Kingdom of God speaking against the prophets and the apostles and also the patriarch, Abraham. Criticizing that they were wrong about something that they did, is speaking against the Lord Jesus Christ's mission, His grace, and His mercy...Repenting like Saul for he changed his name to Paul - Changing his direction...Amen.
