The keys of the kingdom are, i believe the gospel that is preached. Our acceptance, an faith in the word (looses)us from the bondage Satan as had us in, an if we reject the gospel preached to us

then we remain (bound), an in bondage. Jesus came to set the captives free, but the choice remains yours if you want to to be loosed . Peter preached in the day of Pentecost an 3000 were loosed from bondage that day. Every Sunday the gospel is preached and there are those who believe and are loosed an others will walk out still in the bondage they came in with because they refuse the gospel.

I believe Christ Jesus is telling all the apostles that their teachings, infused by His Holy Spirit will be here on earth the same in heaven, because Christ is the author and finisher of our faith. The Holy Spirit is key to following Jesus not the Roman Catholic Church or any other church that does not follow Christ Jesus thru His Holy Word.

i dont see what u r saying here, i understood it by Peter knowing who Christ was, and how flesh and blood could not reveal it, but the Spirit of the Father, how the keys were given cuz of the knowledge of revelation.... DISIPLINE???
