In this chapter, Peter's understanding of Whom Jesus is, is a spiritual understanding, not a human one, and of course we know that this Truth is the rock upon which the church of Christ is built, it's certainly not built on a human being such as Peter, with the faults that he had. Build a church on faults and of course, big cracks will appear.

This statement and understanding of Christ is our universal statement of faith and is the "key" to the kingdom. this kingdom is spiritual and only those "born from above" have access to it, ie, the keys.

You and I weren’t given any keys and the church was built upon Christ as the corner stone so can you elaborate a bit on you statement.
