Peter's Confession of Christ 13When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say the Son of Man is?”14They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” 15“But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?” 16Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 17Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by man, but by my Father in heaven. 18And 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. 19I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”20Then he warned his disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Christ.

Peter was the rock for Jesus. After Christ's death and resurrection, Peter became a disciple and brought many Gentiles and Jews to christ, and he built many churches in countries that had never heard of Christ. Peter suffered persecution just as Christ did.

Matthew 16:16-20: (Start point- Type: Matthew 16:16 Click: "Search Bible") The last part of this verse we see a glimpse of God's plan for His Church. After Jesus's work on the cross those who believe on Jesus as Savior can operate in awesome authority over Satan, sin & sickness(John 14:12-15). When the church uses the name of Jesus against Satan & his power, he can't stop our offense. He can't stop a person from chosing Jesus, he only can try to blind and decieve them. Jesus is the key(authority) over all the powers of our enemy Satan, sin & sickness. Jesus at His "Great Comission" to the church gave us this key(authority) to operate God's kingdom on this earth NOW!(Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15-19; Acts 1:8-9)

22Then Peter took him (JESUS), and began to rebuke him(JESUS), saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee. 23But he(JESUS) turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind ME, Satan: thou art an offence unto ME: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.<>Matthew 16<>Abba Father God Almighty<>Reconciled in Christ Jesus<>We exalt the WORD above all things<>The Same yesterday,today and forever<>Amen<>F<\+/>S<>

The 'Primacy of Peter' has been disputed by detractors on many points. Peter was given the primacy in Matt 16:18, "AND I SAY TO THEE, THOU ART PETER, AND UPON THIS ROCK I WILL BUILD MY CHURCH." Some say Peter was not the 'rock'. Others try to separate Peter from the Bishop of Rome, by trying to show he was never in Rome. Still others say the words 'I WILL' in Matt 16:18, denotes some future tense. They include Matt 16:19, "I WILL give thee the keys..." as 'proof' that Peter did not receive the keys, but somehow ALL the Apostles received them in Matt 18:18. It is obvious that Jesus spoke to Peter alone in Matt 16:19 and gave him personally, the power of binding and loosening. It is also obvious that Jesus again gave him the power of binding and loosening along with the other Apostles in Matt 18:18, and yet again in John 20:23. However, Jesus gave Peter and Peter alone, the Keys of the Kingdom of Heaven in Matt 16:19. Detractors of the primacy of Peter have arguments that are so weak, they are almost non-existent. I could discuss each of these points, but in this section of this letter I will discuss only one point, which makes all other arguments against the primacy of Peter moot.
