Matthew 16:18-20

New Life Version

¹⁸ “And I tell you that you are Peter. On this rock I will build My church. The powers of hell will not be able to have power over My church. ¹⁹ I will give you the keys of the holy nation of heaven. Whatever you do not allow on earth will not have been allowed in heaven. Whatever you allow on earth will have been allowed in heaven.” ²⁰ Then with strong words He told His followers to tell no one that He was the Christ.
