"And I also say unto thee, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it" (Matt. 16:18).
Notice Jesus said, "my church." Whose church? Yours? Nope! Mine? Nope. The church of Christ belongs to Jesus. Why do you think it's called the church of Christ (Rom. 16:16). Jesus purchased the church with His own blood (Acts 20:28). He is the builder, buyer and owner. It is His body (Eph. 1:22-23).
