Huge understanding shift.. "I will build my Church " over the gates of hell vs Peter Simon.
@MrDoyle075 ай бұрын
You’re trying to hard to narrow down the role of Peter and the scope of what Jesus did when He appointed Simon to “Peter”. Jesus built His Church exactly where He said He would, over the top of Pagan Rome; and did it with the precise human executors He chose at this place in 33AD. Your Prot is over riding your vision.

Peter was petros, meaning a stone, but the Rock is petra, so they are not the one and the same. The rock, petra is the collective of the petros, people who are not taught by men, but whom the father has given illumination and revelation of who Christ is. So no, Peter is not the rock.

@@sleepyheadzJesus didn’t say it in Greek. He said it in Aramaic, so it was Caipha, “rock”. The Greek translations for the gentiles did the best they could with the semantics of the feminine and masculine between the languages.

I wish the episode had continued to the Transfiguration, which happens right after this scene. Most likely, Jesus takes Peter/James/John up Mt. Hermon (which had been associated with divine rebellion - Genesis 6:1-4, and other activities of supernatural evil). This is Jesus' "shot across the bow" so to speak, before he heads to Jerusalem to be crucified. The powers of darkness are put on notice, their time is coming. Highly recommend reading Dr. Michael Heiser's book "The Unseen Realm" and "Reversing Hermon" to learn more "After six days Jesus took with him Peter, James and John the brother of James, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. There he was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light." (Matthew 17:1-2) "We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature, but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. ... None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory." (1 Cor 2:6-8)

Pastor Robbins, This was an immensely informative video, as are most of yours. In these very troubling and uncertain times, many sermons and messages are centered around defeating the evil one. For myself, just when I feel my efforts to make Satan 'scram' are working, he gets mottals to , perhaps, unwittingly attack my faith. We all need to remember, as you were saying, the gates of hell are everywhere. We must be alert and pratoce reminding evil that we are children of God, washed by the precious blood of Jesus and given the authority to tell Satan and his minions to "Go!'.❤

BTW, you are only the second person other than myself that I have ever heard translate "echad" in the Shema as "alone". It excited me to hear it in this video. It gets right to the point of the message of the Shema.

It's mind-blowing to me that there were orgies going on, men and beasts going on, to (entice pan) out! Especially throwing their own children in that water as sacrifices! These people were sick but just like HE always did, Jesus had to visually stand up and confront the (so-called gods) to really get His point across. Praise God ❤️🔥 many blessings for you teaching this so well! So many people just don't understand. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS 🙏

I have to be honest & say he's kinda being economical with the truth, while massively exaggerating it's pagan rituals & origins. The throwing babies into the water is BS it's a spring that was used for drinking water, no one would pollute a source of clean water back then. The truth is it's actually a Nature Reserve under the Israeli Nature & Parks Authority. It's called the Hermon Stream Nature Reserve, it's beautiful place, there are two area's one is the Archaeological site & the Springs, the other is the Waterfall & the Hanging trail. My jaw was on the floor listening to his tall tales. It's not disturbing in the slightest it's a lovely really pretty place.

I think this is problem with Roman Catholicism. They have somehow adopted the idea that the Roman Catholic Church is sole interpreter of the Scriptures which closes them off to the idea that they can be in error in light of new historical discoveries or evidences that contradict their interpretation. For example, “The Rock” is a title that God uses of Himself (Deuteronomy 32:4; 32:15, 18; 32:30-31; 2 Samuel 23:3; Psalm 89:26; Isaiah 17:10; Isaiah 30:29; Isaiah 44:8; Habakkuk 1:12) and the revelation from the apostle Paul that Christ is that rock (1 Corinthians 10:1-5) demonstrates to us who “The Rock” of Matthew 16:18 is; it is God, and since Jesus Christ is God, (the Son, the Second Person of the Trinity) He (Christ) is The Rock.

Leviticus 26:1 "Ye do not make to yourselves idols; and graven image or standing image ye do not set up to yourselves; and a stone of imagery ye do not put in your land, to bow yourselves to it; for I am Jehovah your God." (Young's Literal Translation) Jesus is the Son of Jehovah, the living God. The "gates of hell" is not just a literal place in Ceserea Philippi, it means "death", because Jesus is "the life and the resurrection". That is the role he has been given by his God and Father; to resurrect both the righteous and the unrighteous in God's Kingdom come "on Earth as it is in Heaven" when the living God's original purpose for mankind (Adam and Eve) and the Earth (Eden) is restored forever. You are absolutely right that the concept of "hades" is of Pagan myth origin. A place of afterlife torture was not created by the One Jesus refers to as "the only true God" for He created everything. At Jeremiah 32:35 Jehovah tells us that He would never think of burning humans. Hell is a Pagan lie. Eternal punishment is death forever; unconsciousness. The absence of life.
