When Simon declared that the Lord Jesus was “the Christ, the Son of the Living God” (Matt. 16:16) the Lord replied, in Matthew 16:18,
I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My church; and the gates of Hades will not overpower it.
Later, in his first letter to his fellow believers, this same Peter said that we are all “living stones” who are being built up to be God’s house (1 Pet. 2:5).
