Then Jesus told his disciples, “All those who want to be my disciples must say ‘no’ to themselves, pick up their crosses, and follow me.

I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock, I will build my church. The gates of Hades won’t be too strong for it.

I’ll give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven, so that what you lock on earth will be locked in heaven and what you unlock on earth will be unlocked in heaven.”

Whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it.

What good is it if someone gains the whole world but loses their soul? What can anyone trade for their soul?

“But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?” Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.”

Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon, son of Jonah! No mere human showed that to you, but my Father in heaven.
