Life Noodle|Bible Overview 24 - Formation of the Church Episode
In Matthew 16, Jesus promises that upon the "rock" of Peter, He will build His church. The church is founded with the coming of the Holy Spirit in Acts 2. It forms in stages--first in Jerusalem at Pentecost (Acts 2), then in Samaria (Acts 8), and finally among the Gentiles (Acts 10). In each case as the Holy Spirit was given, Peter was the key Apostle present.
