Bible Question: What is the meaning of matt16:19 and John 20:23? |
Bible Answer: Hi, Brojohn... The kingdom of heaven here is the Gospel. The keys are associated with the power that regeneration bestows to understand the specific truths of the Gospel. Remitting the sins of others should be understood in the sense of preaching the gift of atonement. Only there is the full and free remission of sins realized by the grace of God through the shed blood of Christ. In Him, Doc |
