Caesarea Philippi (Part 1)

The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In this discourse, Steve Gregg provides an overview of the role of Peter in the early Christian church as portrayed in the Bible. He argues that while Peter was a visible leader among the apostles, he was not necessarily the chief leader or head of the Church. Rather, Peter had special needs and was often restored despite his mistakes. Greg also discusses the concept of the keys to the kingdom, which represent authority to bind and loose certain actions, and argues that this pertained to the apostles as a group rather than just Peter.
