MATTHEW 16:18 (KJV)
And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter (Petros), and upon this rock (petra) I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
Ano po ba religion nagsabi na si Peter nagtayo?
Correct me if i am wrong Jesus speaks here. When He says "I will be build my church..."
Who built it?
Answer-Jesus(since we believe in one God, no argument with God the Father building it).
The remaining topic na lang siguro is where is it built.
"...and upon this rock (petra) I will build my church"
-Jesus built the church on top of a rock.
-Petro being small stone, sa mga bahay ngayon maliliit lang din na bato nilalagay namin bago buhusan footing, ewan ko lang during their time.
Rock as a cornerstone po is different sa Rock as a foundation bed. So kung nabanggit na si Jesus ang cornerstone hindi po yun same sa rock na nasabi dyan sa Matthew 16:18.
Eto sariling pananaw ko na lang. Since nasa construction side ako, medyo hinanapan ko ng deeper meaning ang parable of the wise builder nasa Matthew din naman din yun. Dito sa lupa kay peter na muna iniwan ni Jesus ang simbahan tinayo nya para di mawala sa lokasyon (the house being carried away by flood, the word being misinterpreted).
Hindi ko na sasabihin kung anong Religion.
Yes, just like I said, Jesus was the speaker in that verse, but those words are came from the Father.
Christ's way of speaking is this:
JOHN 12:50 (KJV)
And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.
So the Father said that..
The Father who said what Christ spoke. Therefore, The God The Father who Built the Church.
In fact, the bible said in HEBREWS 3:4 (KJV)
For every house is builded by some man; but he that built all things is God.
Father and Son, they are both God, but different persons.
See this verse,
The Father speaking from heaven,
The Holy Spirit descending like a dove,
And Jesus went up straightway out of the water.
This is one of the proof that the Father, and Jesus are different persons.
MATTHEW 3:16-17 (KJV)
And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
Yes, pero hindi si Pedro ang pinagtayoan, kundi si Cristo.
Petros is a person, so Petra must be a person also.
Because Jesus is also The Word of God.
ako naman bossing iba rin interpretation ko diyan sa "petras" pero mag disclaimer muna ako na atheist ako at ang interpretation ko is based on logic lang sa pagkasulat ng book, if titingnan mo kasi yung mga katabing verses may sinabi si Peter diyan na "You are the Messaiah, the Son of the living God" so since Petra is bigger than Petros, the logic would be that Petras is something that is bigger than Peter, and since the articulation of Peter about the Diety of Christ precedes this debatable verse eh i think the Ultimate Truth that Peter just articulated is the one that is being referred to as the bigger rock because obviously the Truth (Diety of Christ) is definitely bigger than Peter as a Rock, so the church is built upon this Truth (referring to Peter's articulation of divinity of Christ)
Yes exactly.
Looking at it the root of it is the contrast of 2 greek words, petras and petros. Since dito naman makikita ang logic ng bigger rock compared to the stone . But we can go back directly to aramaic, yung mismong gamit nila on the time of Jesus.
Peter. Peter's name in aramaic is preserved and it is Kephas, which means rock so walang contrast. Naging Petros lang naman yan dahil di pwede gamitin petra sa lalaki nung natranslate aramaic papunta greek.
Tingin ko may play of word bakit yan pinalit sa pangalan nya.
Caiaphas-which also means rock, is the high priest of the old covenant. Dito naman inappoint na si Kephas para maglead sa church na itatayo ni Jesus.
Hindi Aramaic ang original na manuscript ng Gospel ng John, kundi Greek. Greek nila sinulat Kasi Greek ang mas well known nung time na Yun, kung baga sa panahon nation ay English ang mas common.
Pinangaralan rin ng mga apostles ang mga Gentles.
Hindi porke Hebrew sila, lahat isusulat na nila sa Hebrew.
Hebrew and Aramaic are not the same.
