I tell you this. You are called Peter, which means a rock. And I will build my church on this rock. Not even the power of death will destroy my church. I will give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven . You will tell people here on earth what is right for them to do. And you will tell them what is not right for them to do. God in heaven will give you this authority. He will agree with what you say.’
Matthew 16:18-19
我還告訴你，你是彼得 ，我要把我的教會建造在這磐石上；陰間的權柄 不能勝過他。 我要把天國的鑰匙給你，凡你在地上所捆綁的，在天上也要捆綁；凡你在地上所釋放的，在天上也要釋放。」 馬太福音 16:18-19
