Matthew 16:18 (KJV)
And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
Notice how important the church is for Jesus that He himself declared that even the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. Though, it should be built upon that rock, question is, who is that rock? That rock is no other than the Lord Jesus Christ.
- Psalm 61:2, "the rock that is higher than I."
- 1 Corinthians 10:4 "the Spiritual Rock... and that Rock was Christ."
- Matthew 7:24-25 the rock for a strong foundation
- Psalm 18:2 "The Lord is my rock and my fortres..."
- Ephesians 2:20 "chief corner stone."
Just like the song:
"My God is A Rock.
He is my firm and sure foundation,
My God is a Rock,
He towers over all creation..."
Us, the church, our rock is the Lord Jesus Christ. Faith builded on that rock will stand against anything. God Bless!
