I didn’t say he was wrong, I quoted the verse “and Jesus turned to Peter and said “get behind me satan”. I didn’t say Peter was satan, I said what Jesus said to Peter.
My point was, IF Jesus meant Peter was the Rock that Jesus will build HIS church, isn’t it odd that Jesus would say to the newly crowned pope “get behind Me satan” ?
Jesus asked Peter “who do you say I am ?” He answered “You are the Son of God” - The living God revealed this to Peter. Jesus specifically mentions that, and That revelation, that confession was/is THE ROCK in the “upon this Rock” statement that Jesus refers to. It’s Peters confession that Jesus is the Son of God through revelation. It’s that revelation, to all believers that builds HIS church.
To explain why He had chosen Peter.
...and That revelation, that confession was/is THE ROCK in the “upon this Rock” statement that Jesus refers to.
That is a common misinterpretation.
Amen.
