| Matthew 18:18_ _ Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven  Here, what had been granted but a short time before to Peter only (see on Matthew 16:19) is plainly extended to all the Twelve; so that whatever it means, it means nothing peculiar to Peter, far less to his pretended successors at Rome. It has to do with admission to and rejection from the membership of the Church. But see on John 20:23. | 
| Matthew 18:18Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth  By excommunication, pronounced in the spirit and power of Christ. Whatsoever ye shall loose  By absolution from that sentence. In the primitive Church, absolution meant no more than a discharge from Church censure. Again I say  And not only your intercession for the penitent, but all your united prayers, shall be heard. How great then is the power of joint prayer! If two of you  Suppose a man and his wife. Matthew 16:19. | 
| Matthew 16:19
  And I will give  unto thee the keys  of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever  thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. John 20:23
  Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; [and ] whose soever [sins ] ye retain, they are retained. Acts 15:23
 -31  And they wrote [letters ] by them after this manner; The apostles  and elders and brethren  [send ] greeting  unto the brethren which are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria  and Cilicia: ... [Which ] when they had read, they rejoiced  for the consolation . 1 Corinthians 5:4
 -5  In the name  of our Lord Jesus Christ, when  ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, ... To deliver  such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that  the spirit may be saved in the day  of the Lord Jesus. 2 Corinthians 2:10
  To whom ye  forgive any thing, I [forgive ] also: for if I forgave any thing, to whom I forgave [it ], for your sakes [forgave I it ] in the person  of Christ; Revelation 3:7
 -8  And to the  angel of the church in Philadelphia  write; These things saith he that is holy , he that is true , he that hath the key  of David, he that openeth , and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth; ... I know  thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open  door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little  strength, and hast kept  my word, and hast not  denied my name.
