Subject: What do the word rock means spiritual |
Bible Note: Hi Armond, Welcome to the forum. The "rock" of Matthew 7:24 are the words of Christ. Matthew 7:24, "Therefore, everyone who hears these words of Mine, and acts upon them, may be compared to a wise man, who built his house upon the rock." The "Rock" is Jesus as revealed to Peter by His Father. But when Jesus shows His disciples that He would be killed, and be raised up on the third day, Peter couldn't believe that that would happen to the Rock. Matthew 16:22, Literally, "And having taken Him near, Peter began to rebuke Him, saying, '(God be) merciful to You, Lord; this shall never be to You.'" From the heart, Ray |
