Peter The Rock Poem by JOE POEWHIT

Peter The Rock



'I was reading my Bible and felt like Moses saying to myself,
who am I to write such things'.

Peter the rock, in part MATT 16-18, upon this rock, I will build my
church. Saint Peter's in Rome, built upon the rock, Peter's remains.
Peter as an omen was crucified upside down. Signifying man's
waywardness and sins. Turning to Jesus who was crucified
upright, brought rightness and salvation.

The Romans, Constantine, SOL worship, and heretics probably
instilled Sunday as the Sabbath for sun worship unity and
other dictates. Peter wrote in 1 PETER 2-20,21-in parts, about
being buffeted for faults, having patience, being called,
Christ's suffering and that ye should follow his steps. As the
four gospels are filled with the key word FOLLOW.

I feel, the church like people, has to be wayward. Like Peter
upside down, then finding Jesus, becoming upright and saved
in following Jesus steps. Casting away old Romans,
Constantine, and heretics dictates, which became institution
and traditions. Fear holding rightness and change in bondage.

Again Jesus stated in MATT: 16, the gates of hell shall not
prevail against it. So, hell is in conflict with the church. I see
change coming into a more unified Church of GOD,
FOLLOWING JESUS the cornerstone in his steps.

WHEN ? Only GOD knows.
