Is it a building? What if the church was not predicated on a building, but rather on the truth of the wisdom, knowledge and understanding of God. Matthew 16: 16-18 Thou art the Christ, the son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, “Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jo-na: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in Heaven. And I say also unto thee, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. If the interpreters of the Bible had only said, “with this knowledge I will give you the keys of the kingdom of Heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in Heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in Heaven. The church, temple, synagogues and mosque, are all places believed to be where worship of God takes place with gathering of all the people who believes. Psalm 133:1 Behold, how good and pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity.

When Jesus said, “flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in Heaven.” Peter, like the others, did not know that Jesus was truly the son of God, but God had to reveal it to him within his spirit. All of the other disciples that were with Jesus saw the same things Peter saw Him doing. But yet, why couldn’t they say what Peter had said, or why couldn’t they have seen it also, that Jesus was the son of God? Peter means rock and upon the rock is the foundation of the knowledge of God which, as was revealed to Peter, is the church built within each and everyone us.

After Jesus’ resurrection, the promise of the Holy ghost (comforter Matthew 14:26) did come on the day of Pentecost Act 2:24 And the truth was revealed and spread to all who believed in Jesus even today the Holy ghost is still moving in us to do the will of God. Just as Jesus has given us the key to the kingdom of heaven(Matthew 16:19) He has given us just as the father has given him authority through him, to access the heaven and the earth. But we have to remember it is only through obedience, and oneness to the will of God like Jesus, can we accomplish this, not by flesh but by the spirit.

In conclusion the church is not built with concrete, wood and glass. It cannot be torn down or broken into. To me the church is revelation of divinity.
