1 | REVELATION ! | Matt 16:15 | obi1kanobi | 155123 | ||
Hello Brothers and Sisters. Thank you for your remarks. I am thankful that I will be judged by Jesus and not any man ! I also know that to Love GOD with all our HEARTS, MIND and STRENGTH is a COMMANDMENT and I strive to do so ! Unfortunately, it´s like the blind leading the blind. None of you have really looked at or even come near to ANSWERING my questions, so I will try to clarify this again:(MATHEW 16:15-20) JESUS said; Blessed art thou Simon Bar Jona, because FLESH and BLOOD hath NOT REVEALED this unto you but my FATHER in Heaven, and thou art Peter and upon this ROCK,I WILL,( I WILL, meaning sometime in the future) build MY CHURCH (For the learned, probably meaning THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST eh ?)and the gates of hell shall not prevail against IT. Furthermore; I asked WHY are there so so MANY different churches and DOCTRINES ?( of men ) PLEASE PLEASE, don´t try to tell me that they are all ONE, because they are not. JESUS said; There is only ONE WAY and we see that HE is ORGANISED !!! HE called APOSTLES ! So children, WHICH CHURCH would satan have NO POWER over ??????????????????? God Bless, Obi1kanobi |

2 | REVELATION ! | Matt 16:15 | Chumley | 155131 | ||
Hello, If I understand you correctly, you are defining 'Church' to mean the human organizations we have for purposes of worship (e.g. baptist, catholic etc). When you read Ephesians 5 :25-27 (....as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her 26to make her holy, cleansing[b] her by the washing with water through the word, 27and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.) it is evident that Christ died for the Church (the people) and not the humanly constructed organizations. From the excerpt of your questions, Jesus says "..thou art Peter and upon this rock I will build my church..". The rock the Jesus is referring to is not the person of Peter but rather the revelation knowledge that God had revealed to Peter. The church that Satan doesn't have power over is the group of people that identify themselves as the body of christ --- irrespective of their doctrinal affiliations. Be blessed. |

Greetings Chumley, Nice post and right on target! There are likely those on the forum that won’t understand your answer though because they aren’t members yet of the church that Christ is building; this is due to the fact that it hasn’t been reveled to them yet. 1 Cor. 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. It sure gets perplexing doesn’t it, the Apostle Paul ran into the same problem. Romans 10:1-4 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. [2] For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. [3] 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. [4] For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. Have a great day, CDBJ |
