14. They replied, "Some say John the Baptist, others Elijah, and still others Jeremiah or one of the other prophets."
15. He said, "And what about you? Who do you say that I am?"
16. Simon Peter said, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God."
17. Then Jesus replied, "Happy are you, Simon son of Jonah, because no human has shown this to you. Rather my Father who is in heaven has shown you.
18. I tell you that you are Peter. And I’ll build my church on this rock. The gates of the underworld won’t be able to stand against it.
19. I’ll give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. Anything you fasten on earth will be fastened in heaven. Anything you loosen on earth will be loosened in heaven."
20. Then he ordered the disciples not to tell anybody that he was the Christ.
21. From that time Jesus began to show his disciples that he had to go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders, chief priests, and legal experts, and that he had to be killed and raised on the third day.
