Rock Solid!
And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.
Matthew 16:18
When Jesus declared these words, he wasn't inaugurating a dynasty of ultimate and superior leaders... a papal dynasty.
Rather he was declaring two things
l Peter will be the early church leader, anointed to kick start the early church at Pentecost
2 Anyone who confesses Christ, in the way Peter did just before this passage,
will likewise be a rock in the church of Christ.
Of course Jesus, is the superior rock …
Upon which the Church is built ...
The Church foundation ...
The stone the builders rejected.
But you can be a Rocky!
You can hold the kingdom keys
You can do the stuff.
