What is the Key of Heaven. To know why Peter won the key to Heaven, and who did he left it to, let’s go back to the text: (Matt. 16 13 to 23). Jesus asked: 15- He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? 16- And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. 17- And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed [it] unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. 18- 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. In this same text, Jesus said he was going to suffer and be killed by religious. Peter disapproved. Jesus turned and said: 23- Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men. We clearly see what Peter, without the Holy |
Spirit, was. Jesus still shoes to all that see Peter as a denier (the leader of the 12, chosen one by one by Jesus, in all Israel, the most staunch and brave of all, as he speaks in several texts), that Peter without the Holy Spirit, was a vile, fearful man, like all men, denying him three times, but after pentecostes, the Peter, with the apostles, facing the threats of high authorities. Acts 5. 21- (...) But the high priest came, and they that were with him, and called the council together, and all the senate of the children of Israel (...).(Note: For those who think they have to obey the church authorities, even if they are wrong). They answered to the high authorities- Acts 4: 20- For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard. 5. 29- (...) We ought to obey God rather than men. 32- And we are his witnesses of these things; and [so is] also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him. (Only has the Spirit whoever obeys God). |
