Nomad The way I see it, you are right about John and Peter but wrong about James. John and Peter do speak of grace through faith. But they spoke of it after Paul delivered that message. I believe the message of grace is what Peter was referring to when he said Paul was hard to be understood...

So then Peter can bind and loose on his own but the rest of the Apostles have to do it together? Is that what you are saying? I am asking and not charging you with that belief. If you bekieve that then when did they collectively do so? Overall... Rhey together fulfilled the mission given to...

Absolutely true! And everything you stated in this post is true. I have heard you say in other past posts that the book of Acts was the transition of the law of Moses to the Law of faith. I agree that's when it manifested, but I believe Jesus (and the gospels) as setting it up, and thus... The...

Yes I have. Not in over a year though. I vowed to govern myself and stick to errors in doctrine and address them without pointing fingers at either people or denominations. I rarely even utter the word "Catholic Church" unless its speaking in a historical sense or unless addressed with a...

That's not what Jesus prayed for. The question is in error, but my answer is correct. Luke 22:31-32 KJV And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: [32] But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted...

Actually I said I am not protesting anything other than false doctrine. And you say I admitted to protesting the Catholic Church? Hmmmm...

I did answer the question. He was the most predominant of them. Not so. He was about to be sifted by Satan and he needed to be converted before he could even think about serving or strengthening his brothers. That comes right after the verses I was speaking of. No... Because Peter was the...

YES! Finally you get it! At least I don't reject the Bible! Actually... I do. It may surprise you, but that's correct to some degree. I am using it to counterbalance you false elivation of Peter. A side note for you Kepha... I am not stupid. I know I will not win this convesation. I...

What in tarnations doea that have to do with anything we are discussing? When did I say otherwise? I mean... I couldve. Paul was at odds with James, John Mark and Peter at times. Yea... They were all on the same team. But to say they worked in harmony is incorrect. Number one.. I never...

Yes. Really. The verse doesn't say he was the chief apostle. He absolutely at the time was the most predominate. But it doesn't say he was the chief. And where did it say he got them alone? What did these keys do? They allowed him to loose and bind stuff... Did Peter alone have that...

Neither myself nor my Church is a denomination. So right there I am excluded. Second, a am not protesting anything other than false doctrine. Ley your pope be your leader! Third, yes I like many of the principles the reformers laid down. Not all of them. They have their leaven too. Now...

Folks... PETER WAS NOT THE LEADER OF THE APOSTLES! JESUS WAS! Not ONCE does the Bible say Peter was their leader! Not ONCE did Jesus ever say Peter was the greatest of them, to follow Peter's decisions or had supremacy. Not ONCE does the Bible say Peter was head of the Church at any time...

Well you missed the point. Would you feel better if I changed my wording? How about, "some members of the Christian community give more honor to Mary and Peter than the Bible allots to them." Feel better? Gee... Thats funny. I don't remember mentioning your name recently. I didn't even...

Amen! Actually he did in 1 Peter chapter 1. Please see verses 2 as well as verses 19-21. This epistle, however, was probably written between 60 and 68 AD. This is well after Paul established the doctrine of grace through faith. Whether it was written to the gentiles or dispersed Jews in...

Shooting off the hip here... Mat 16 gives a lot of great honor and praise to Peter. But that the Church would be built on him alone is not one of them. If Eph 2:20 isn't enough to convince you... Probably the rest of the evidence I can submit won't convince you either. With some in the...

Ok... Let's look at what you really said: You even take yourself out of context! It's pretty clear what you were saying. Paul: Little, local church. Peter: BIG THE CHURCH. You are just playing games now and trying to back out of the corner you got yourself into.

What G101 said is true! I was thi king on the same lines as he was... I knew Jesus was calked an apostle at least once... Just didn't remember where. If we are speaking of the 12 chosen then it reminds me of the conversarion I am having with another member. I don't believe God sees on as...

Chuckle... Marymog has accused me of putting words in her mouth and having my mind already made up! I have no problem with you Amadeus. I just am looking forward to hearing her answer to the same charges she laid on me.... Just a funny observation.

Without agreeing with everything you said, I do appreciate your post and agree with the overall point.

Still ignoring the part of the verse where Jesus said, "but ye shall not be so..."? I never said they didn't and in fact have stated the did. Its right there next to the verse which says Peter was the greatest apostle. Tell me where you think I am wrong: Jesus called out Peter and Peter...
