The
idea that Peter was the rock upon which Jesus would build his church is
absolutely. dangerously. heretically. dangerous. The rock upon which
Jesus' church would be built is the declaration of Jesus as the Christ,
the Messiah as revealed by the Spirit of God.
The church cannot
be built upon the church, and Peter is most certainly a part of the
church. The church, as a host of believers saved as the Bride of
Christ, must be built upon something infallible and eternal...and there
is no man who does good, not even one. And all have sinned and fallen
short of the glory of God.
And as God demonstrated in his blood
covenant with Abraham, man is incapable of being an equal partner in
that blood covenant. And so God walks through and pledges for both
himself and for man.
Peter as the rock upon which which the
church would be built is a blatant lie that contradicts the basic
thematic structure of scripture from the beginning when God first shed
the blood of animals to clothe Adam and Eve...
Again and again and again...it's not about man. It's about God.
Anything else is a lie.
