THE POWER TO BIND LOOSE

MATTHEW 16:13-19 SPEAK ABOUT   GIVING THE KEYS OF THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN TO PETER WITH THE AUTHORITY SAYING THAT "WHATEVER YOU BIND ON EARTH WILL BE BOUND IN HEAVEN, AND WHATEVER YOU LOOSE ON EARTH WILL BE LOOSED IN HEAVEN" THE BINDING AND LOOSING HAS TO DO WITH CHURCH DISCIPLINE. CHRIST LAID OUT SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS FOR DEALING WITH SIN IN THE CHURCH. THEREFORE BINDING AND LOOSING HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH SATAN. WE CANNOT BIND AND LOOSE SATAN BECAUSE IT IS NOT HIS TIME YET ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE, SATAN'S ULTIMATE DEFEAT AND BINDING WILL ONLY OCCUR AT THE END OF TIMES, MEANING THAT WHILE  CHRISTIANS CAN RESIST AND REBUKE HIM THROUGH  FAITH, THEY DO  NOT  HAVE THE  POWER TO COMPLETELY RESTRAIN HIM IN THIS PRESENT DAY.
