......Jesus said that upon THIS Rock my church is built.......what is the rock...Revelation!!!! thats what Peter had just had when Jesus said those words. He had a revelation from the Father...He didnt say upon YOU...but upon THIS. Personal revelation from God IS how His church is built and the Gates of Hell will NOT prevail against it. When God speaks into your life you become immovable!
personal revelation from God is what the church is founded on?
really?
yes, we have untold thousands who want us to believe that.
The church is founded on CHRIST, the Cornerstone, and His apostles.
that's the foundation and there is no other to be laid.
Peter's profession was the Divinely Revealed identification of Christ as the Son of The Living God.
christians are living stones built ONTO that foundation or they are something else altogether.
what does this mean -
"when God speaks into your life"?
where's that in scripture? (it isn't)
I find it interesting when I see people talk about God and His word and that we cannot add or take away from it and that its ONLY the bible that is God breathed and complete in its entirety.....
these are the last words in my Bible, and they were
spoken by Jesus, Whom God revealed to peter:
Revelation 22
18 I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book, 19 and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book.
20He who testifies to these things says, “Surely I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!
21The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all.f Amen.

people can play games with that all day long.
why anyone wants to is beyond me.
