I. The Question and Answer
a) The Public’s Opinion (13-14)
b) The Disciple’s Opinion (15-17)
II.
The Building of the Church (17-20)
a) The essential foundation “on this rock”
Peter- Petros (masculine form for a stone)
“rock”- Petra (feminine form for same word)
Distinguished from the masc.
pétros in that pétra is a mass of rock while pétros is a detached stone or boulder, a stone that might be thrown or easily moved.
Therefore, when a type is sought to illustrate a sure foundation, the word pétra, an immovable rock, is used
Used metaphorically of Christ and the testimony concerning Him which is an unchangeable, immovable testimony (Matt.
16:18).
John 14:26 (CSB)
But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and remind you of everything I have told you.
b) The future action: “I will build...”
c) The structure: “my church”
Ekklesia- assembly, gathering; community, congregation
d) The victory: “gates of Hades will not overpower it”
e) The authority:
“keys of the kingdom...”
“binding…loosing...”
The tense of the two Greek verbs translated “will have been bound” and “will have been loosed” indicate that the action in heaven precedes the action on earth
f) The charge: (20)
Conclusion
Know: Christ is building His church
