29062016 Gospel Mt 16:13-19

After that, Jesus came to Caesarea Philippi. He asked his disciples, “Who do people say the Son of Man is?” They said, “For some of them, you are John the Baptist; for others Elijah, or Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.”
Jesus asked them, “But you, who do you say I am?” Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.” Jesus replied, “It is well for you, Simon Barjona, for it is not flesh or blood that has revealed this to you, but my Father in heaven.
And now I say to you: You are Peter; and on this Rock I will build my Church; and never will the powers of death overcome it.
I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven: whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatever you unbind on earth shall be unbound in heaven.”

Repleksiyon:

Nagtuo an mga tawo na si John the Baptist si Jesus na nabanhaw, segun ini sa tubag sa pangutana Nija sa mga disciple.

An iban nagtuo na si Elijah o dili kaha, si Jeremiah o dili kaha, isa sa mga propeta Sija.

Pero nan pagpangutana ni Jesus kan Peter kon sin’o Sija para dija, an tubag ni Peter na Messiah Sija, na Son of the Living God.

Deklarado ni Jesus na nahisulti ini ni Simon Barjona (Peter) kay tagpakita ini dija nan Ija Father in heaven,

Tungod nan ini, tagdeklarar ni Jesus na “Ikaw Peter; dinhi sa Rock naq ini imugna nako an ako Church; dili mapukan nan kamatajon an gahum nan ini.”

Inhatag dija an mga liyabe nan kaharian nan langit despuwes, kon sin’o kuno an ija gapuson sa kalibutan, amo ‘sab an gapuson sa langit sanan kon sin’o ‘sab an ija hubaron, amo’y ‘sab hubaron sa langit.

Uno’y kahuyugan nan ini?

Si Peter an tasangunan ni Jesus nan gahum na pamunuan an Ija Church na Ija tagmugna sa kalibutan, ugsa na sija an pinaka-una na Pope nan Catholic Church.

Amo na isa ra gajud na tinood na Universal Church, an Catholic Church.
