"and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it."

"15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?

16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.

18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

20 Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ."

I personally interpret this verse as true believers as Church rather than the Roman Catholic interpretation.

@BritishFailedAesthetic I definitely interpret it to mean that Peter was supposed to be head of the church, not Paul.
@LordShadowfire Left footer! 🤣

@BritishFailedAesthetic I had to Google that. I had no idea that was a derogatory term for a Catholic. Certainly, that's the first time anybody's mistaken me for a Catholic. 😆

What are the keys Jesus is talking about?
