Mt 16:13-19: Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his
disciples, ‘Who do people say that the Son of Man is?’ 14And they said, ‘Some say John
the Baptist, but others Elijah, and still others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.’ 15He said
to them, ‘But who do you say that I am?’ 16Simon Peter answered, ‘You are the Messiah,*
the Son of the living God.’ 17And Jesus answered him, ‘Blessed are you, Simon son of
Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father in heaven. 18And I
tell you, you are Peter,* and on this rock* I will build my church, and the gates of Hades
will not prevail against it. 19I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and
whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth
will be loosed in heaven.’
Col 1:24: 2Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I am filling up
what is lacking in Christ’s afflictions for the sake of his body, that is, the church.

Dei Verbum (Latin: "The Word of God"), the relationship between Tradition and
Scripture is explained: "Hence there exists a close connection and communication
between sacred Tradition and sacred Scripture. For both of them, flowing from the same
divine wellspring, in a certain way merge into a unity and tend toward the same end. For
sacred Scripture is the word of God inasmuch as it is consigned to writing under the
inspiration of the divine Spirit. To the successors of the apostles, sacred Tradition hands
on in its full purity God’s word, which was entrusted to the apostles by Christ the Lord
and the Holy Spirit.

"Thus, by the light of the Spirit of truth, these successors can in their preaching preserve
this word of God faithfully, explain it, and make it more widely known. Consequently it
is not from sacred Scripture alone that the Church draws her certainty about everything
which has been revealed. Therefore both sacred Tradition and sacred Scripture are to be
accepted and venerated with the same devotion and reverence."
