1 | God the Son as a confession of faith | John 17:22 | Leslie N | 126359 | ||
Emmaus, Jesus said to Peter, you are a rock, and upon this rock I will build my church, He doesnot say churches. In another part of scripture it says the Church is the body of Christ (can't remember where)there is only 1 body of Christ. To tell you the truth, and this might upset some christians and I apologise, this is just my view, there should only be 1 church, with 1 standard, with 1 purpose based on that rock (Peter). I don't think I will see it in my lifetime, but what a glorious church it will be. | ||||||

"this is just my view, there should only be 1 church, with 1 standard, with 1 purpose based on that rock (Peter)" That rock is not Peter. That rock is Jesus Christ. Matt 16:18 I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My church; and the gates of Hades will not overpower it. rock in this verse comes from the Greek petra Eph 4:15, 16 but speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head, even Christ, from whom the whole body, being fitted and held together by what every joint supplies, according to the proper working of each individual part, causes the growth of the body for the building up of itself in love. Praise the Lord! Norm |
