Matthew

Greek grammar makes it clear that Jesus did not say He would build the church upon Peter; He said He would build it on Peter’s statement “Thou art the Christ.” The church was never meant to perpetuate the practices of the synagogues or to graft on traditions out of paganism. The dogmas of man have led people away from what God intended the church to be.

Pastor Melissa Scott exposed the truth about Peter Is NOT the Rock.
Matthew 16:18 King James Version
13 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?
14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.
15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
20 Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.
21 From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.
22 Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee.
23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.
24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
25 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.
26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.
28 Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

Which church are true according to the Bible in this world? Because many churches are not true according to this scriptures, Matthew 7:21-23,Roman's 10;1-3,2Corintians 11:12-15,2thimoty 4:3-4,2Peter 2:1-3,and what is Christmas, Goodfriday and Easter according to the Bible?

[@hiitsme9533]

“The keys” would have been for the keyholder, which was a job early on in Egypt… you can see the keys hanging on a ladder in a Freemason tracing board… could be more than one Peter, because there’s more than one key holder (Peter Petra

[@sulongenjop7436]

Peter can keep as many keys as possible you know!😂

[@mtal5042]

I agree! amen 🙏🏼

The Glory of the Cross poem See him there at Calvary dressed out in full array The penalty for sinners Gods justice on display The slaughtered lamb now speaking, His soul is open wide I'm smitten and forsaken, My God My God Oh Why! A mocking crowd comes tempting, with wagging heads allied A crown of thorns they gave him, set hard above his eye Yet some in sore amazement, let out a desperate cry! 'Tis Jesus friend of sinners, My God My God Oh Why Then the earth began to tremble and the sun now shut its eyes Lest sin should reign eternal, the cursed of God must die With troubled hearts we see him, but faithful we must be This blessed act of mercy , t'was My God My God for me! His sheep had all been scattered, alone and all undone His Fathers heart now grieving, they'd soon have aid to come His work was now accomplished, the trembling cup lay bare Sins darkness now upon Him, as he hung in great despair Before the day was finished, His parched lips would rehearse The only words befitting, My God My God I Thirst Through smitten, bruised, abandoned, faith eye would let him see In three days he would be risen, with the keys of victory At the dawning of the morning on the first day of the week He left the grave behind him, now gone to tend his sheep He spoke with his disciples, at a dinner by the sea Three times he asked one question, Peter lovest me? The Righteous King Eternal, t'was this man from Galilee By faith, you can receive him and live life full and free All nations now are groaning, while silent hearts just cry A broken heart of sorrows, O' our God will not deny Return thy tears of sorrow, to the One who died for thee No! You have not been forsaken, just but look to Calvary JS 2014

Huh ...okay I was fighting this for a bit but heard you out and get it - makes sense 👍

[@gavin8tor]

Ahhh... the typifying of things. 😊

[@jimparent600]

Yes, there was a leader. Peter. Catholics call it the Primacy of Peter

[@rbnmnt3341]

Primacy? Does scripture say that or the church? I have pretty much covered all the bible, OT and NT. I didn't read where Matthew 16 says any thing about a ROMAN Catholic church, a pope or that PETER is the rock. How does "upon THIS rock" translate into "Peter YOU are the rock?

[@danielobrien3544]

it is because of the diagraming of everything
