## Resource

Matthew 16:13-19. Matt Perkins preaches on the origins of the Lord's church. In this lesson we see where Jesus said he would establish his church on the confession of faith in him. His church was also foretold in the Old Testament when God gave Daniel a vision about a great and eternal kingdom. Jesus only established one church and the terms of admittance to the kingdom are the same as Peter made clear in Acts 2:38.
