1 | IS PETER | Matt 16:16 | CDBJ | 198631 | ||
Greetings, That’s what Peter said alright but he said it because he actually believed it to be so. In Peter’s case it wasn’t something that he was parroting that he heard but was speaking from what he actually knew about Christ. Jesus insured him that this “knowledge”, that he had, came directly from God the Father and no one else. The body of Christ or the church isn’t built on what someone says but the fact of what they truly believe and are trusting in the fact of what Jesus did and who He is. There is a miracle at work every time God reveals this truth. It’s strictly a grace operation when God reveals and installs the knowledge of His Son in someone’s; and then what results is a new spiritual berth taking place, the very instant saving faith responds to God’s message. John 20:30-31 And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book: 31But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.

Hi CDBJ, I was taught that Jesus Christ is the Rock on which the Church was built on, not what someone says "or believes", but Christ, He is the Rock, His Church is built on His person, "The Person" of "Jesus Christ", ( i.e. "The Rock") that is what The Church is built on, the person of Jesus Christ is the fondation that the Church was built on. God bless John |
