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

"15 He saith unto them, [c=BF0000]But whom say ye that I am?
[/c]
16 And Simon Peter answered and said, [b]Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.[/b]

17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, [c=BF0000]Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
[/c]
18 [c=BF0000]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.
[/c]
19 [c=BF0000]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.[/c]

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. 😆
