In Matthew 16:13–19, Jesus asks a question that forces a decision: “Who do you say that I am?” At Caesarea Philippi, in a region known for pagan worship and spiritual darkness, Peter receives revelation of Jesus as “the Christ, the Son of the living God,” and Jesus immediately responds by speaking identity and authority over him.

In this episode from the Seeing Jesus series, Pastor Aaron teaches the Kingdom pattern: revelation produces identity, and identity releases authority. You’ll also hear a deep dive on Jesus’ statement, “On this rock I will build My church,” including the meaning of Ecclesia as a legislative and judicial assembly and how the Church is called to enforce heaven’s rule in the earth.

This message covers:

• Reading Scripture to see Jesus
• Why God restores identity before releasing authority
• The threefold “rock” Jesus references in Matthew 16
• The real meaning of Ecclesia and spiritual legislation
• Binding and loosing as Kingdom authority
• Why the gates of hell represent plans that will not prevail against the Church
• A strong call to prayer and spiritual discipline

If you’re ready to move from just attending church to becoming the Church, this episode will challenge you and stir you to action.
