We have noted how Jehovah proves to be like a rock. Now consider how we can imitate his rocklike qualities. The better we do so, the better equipped we will be to build up the congregation. For example, Jesus gave Simon the name Cephas (translated "Peter"), which means "A Piece of Rock." (John 1:42) This indicated that he would become a source of comfort and stability in the congregation. Congregation elders are described as "the shadow of a massive crag." That illustrates how they protect those in the congregation. (Isaiah 32:2) Of course, the congregation benefits when all-brothers and sisters-imitate Jehovah's rocklike qualities. - EPHESIANS 5:1.
