15 Jesus said to them, 'But who do you say that I am?'
16 Simon Peter responded by saying, 'You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.'
17 And in response, Jesus said to him: 'Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah. For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father, who is in heaven.
18 And I say to you, that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church, and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it.
19 And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatever you shall bind on earth shall be bound, even in heaven. And whatever you shall release on earth shall be released, even in heaven.'
