We have not come to Mount Sinai, says the apostle, but “to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem” (Hebrews 12:22). Peter, quoting Isaiah 28:16, refers to Christ as the Cornerstone of Zion: “See, I lay a stone in Zion, a chosen and precious cornerstone, and the one who trusts in him will never be put to shame” (1 Peter 2:6).
Maana ya kiroho ya Sayuni imeendelezwa katika Agano Jipya, ambapo imepewa maana ya Kikristo ya ufalme wa kiroho wa Mungu, Yerusalemu ya mbinguni (Waebrania 12:22; Ufunuo 14: 1). Petero anarejelea Kristo kama jiwe la msingi la Sayuni: "Kwa kuwa imeandikwa katika maandiko; Tazama, naweka katika Sayuni jiwe kuu la pembeni,teule, lenye heshima, na kila amwaminiye hatatahayarika." (1 Petro 2: 6). Rudi kwa ukurasa wa nyumbani wa Kiswahili
