Mateo 16:18• In Matthew 16:18, Jesus used the word
church for the first time .• This story occurs in pagan territory.• The gate of a city was an important means
of defense in ancient times.• The church should be attacking the gates
of hell.• The church has the pastoral purpose and
the missionary purpose, just as Israel did.
