The one who denied Jesus 3 times and sided with the Judaisers (Galatians 2:11-21) and had to have Paul rebuke him to his face.
Same Peter that in Acts 10:12 disobeyed God 3 times as well.
I agree. But the point of emphasis in this particular passage is that the blessing that attends the revelation of the Father.
We do not have the power to bind and lose - we do not decide what is sin and what is not. We cannot forgive sins like disciples could. Do you really think you can?
Just because they are corrupt doesn't mean they weren't chosen by God. Plenty of corrupt rulers in the Bible were chosen by God.
None of them stayed in power for centuries. We don't follow those rulers now, either.
You don't seem to understand the difference between old and physical and new and spiritual. This is the source of much apostacy.
Disobedience does not equal "cowardly"....
Yes, he denied Jesus out of fear for his life, but it was also his task to do so, to fulfil prophecy.
The same Peter that pulled a sword and struck off the ear of a servant in front of many Roman soldiers.....
The same Peter that stepped out of a boat and walked on water during a storm...
peddle your mis-information to someone else..... I'm not buying...
Doesn't look like it. They believe unbelieving people will be convinced of God's
authority by showing them hidden codes in the Bible, which is what this thread
was made to be about. Whereas nothing in the Bible speaks of this. Does the RCC?
I don't think so. They (OP) seem to be doing it of their own authority! LOL
So they are saying, we are to follow RCC authority, while they themselves do not.
How about you prove that they ARE, other than your mis-understanding of scripture.
Scripture tells us we are ALL members of a royal priesthood, which means we are under NO authority of any "priest".
Not all Popes were corrupt.
If Jesus did give Peter the keys and his authority has been passed down then you are a heretic for not following those rulers.
How convenient of you to ignore the points you can't refute while pretending like you won the argument.
What about Dietrich Bonhoeffer? Hitler was the “authority”, should he have resisted or let him get on with killing Jews?
