Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    After Peter declared that Jesus was the Christ the Son of the living God, Jesus told Peter (whose name means ‘rock’) that upon this rock, He (Jesus) was going to build His church. Was Jesus referring to the truth of what Peter stated or was he referring to Peter the Apostle?

    • A.

      The truth of what Peter said

    • B.

      Peter the Apostle

    Correct Answer
    A. The truth of what Peter said
    Explanation
    Jesus was referring to the truth of what Peter said. Peter declared that Jesus was the Christ, the Son of the living God, and Jesus acknowledged this truth by saying that upon this rock, He was going to build His church. Jesus was not referring to Peter himself as the foundation of the church, but rather to the truth that Peter proclaimed. This statement by Peter was a pivotal moment in affirming Jesus' identity and mission, and Jesus recognized the importance of this truth in establishing His church.
