Matt 23 why does Jesus say to obey the successors of Moses?
The RCC is wrong as usual concerning Christ saying, "Thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church."
It was Peter's answer to Christ' question that was the rock, not Peter, that He would build His Church.
4 important questions:
1) How do you govern the church and administer the kingdom with a confession?
2) How do you give jurisdictional authority to a confession? (Keys of the kingdom)
3) How do you give a confession the power to bind and loose?
4) why did Christ give the keys to Peter (and only to Peter) keys of jurisdictional authority. Isa 22:21-22 why even bother to mention Peter if he is not involved?
Christ asked Peter, "who do you say that I am," and Peter said, "You are the Christ, the Son of the Living God."
That is the rock that Christ built His Church on, the fact that He is "the Christ, the Son of the Living God."
The Church is built on the foundation of Christ "the Rock" not Peter the rock.
So the RCC is just totally lost in their "traditions of men."
Matt 23 why does Jesus say to obey the successors of Moses?
why does Peter act as if he is the rock?
Matthew 16:18 why does Jesus call Peter Petros instead of Petra?
The successors of Moses were the scribes and pharisees.
Does the RCC obey the scribes and pharisees?
KJV says rock!
He was declared to be Petros, a stone, not Petra, The Rock who is Christ.
Matt 21:43
Jesus Christ is the head of the church, (eph 5:23) the body of Christ,
(col 1:18) the new and eternal covenant, (pre-figured Jer 31:31) (Heb 8:8) new covenant replaces the Mosaic covenant, (Heb 8:13) holy mother church replaced Israel Matthew 21:43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
Christ replaces David as king, (Lk 1:32-33) Jesus Christ is the only mediator between God and men, (1 Tim 2:5 & Heb 12:24) but a mediator remains on earth mediating between God and His people, but Christ ascended to heaven, (acts 1) before He did He founded His church, on Peter, and the apostles, and their successors!
Mt 16:18 Mt 28:19 Acts 1:17 acts 2:42 acts 8:31 & 35 Lk 10:16 Jn 8:32 Jn 13:20 Jn 16:13
Jn 20:21-22 eph 2:20
Jesus Christ continues HIS ministry in His new covenant church thru Peter, the apostles, and their successors with the same mission, power, and authority!
Mt 16:18 Mt 28:19 Acts 1:17 acts 8:31 & 35 acts 9:4 Lk 10:16 Jn 8:32 Jn 13:20 Jn 15:5 Jn 16:13 Jn 20:21-22 eph 2:20 acts 2:42 1 Tim 3:15
Greek says Petra.Jn 21:17 feed my sheep (apostles) and feed my lambs (people)
At who’s feet did a man fall dead who lied to the HS? Acts 5:5
their true successors would never contradict the original apostels .their successors have the same ministry mission power and authority as the apostles
So many wonderful and beautiful scriptures . NONE OF WHICH POINTS US TO NOR JUSTIFIES the blasphemies of THE CC .explain Matt 28:19
Acts 8:31

One heart / one mind
Acts 4:32
And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul:
Romans 15:6
That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Apostles received the truth from Christ and are inspired by the Holy Spirit and are commanded to teach all men! Jn 8:32 Jn 16:13 Matt 28:19
Apostles have same mission, power, ministry, and authority as Christ!
Jn 20:21
The sacred deposit of faith
Thee faith once delivered to the saints! Jude 1:3
Without (revealed catholic) faith it is impossible to please God! Heb 11:6
The church possesses the truths revealed by Christ in person, not from scripture, Jude 1:3, 1 Tim 3:15
Matt 18:17
The church is eternal!
The same yesterday, today, and forever!
2 John 1:12
Having many things to write unto you, I would not write with paper and ink: but I trust to come unto you, and speak face to face, that our joy may be full.
You gotta battle this man through the scrips . SO lets try this again .Greek says Petra.
Petra is Rock.
Rock is Christ, not Peter.
KJV says rock!
explain why Jesus performs a miracle identifying Peter with himself
explain why Peter acts as the head of the church on earth after Pentecost? Acts 1:15 who stood up?
Their own foundational Scripture Matthew 16:18 exposes it.You gotta battle this man through the scrips . SO lets try this again .
Notice he said WHO fell dead at whose feet . ITS TRUE peter had the HOLY GHOST
and tis true that annanais and his wife saphira both fell dead at peters feet .
ITS ALSO TRUE that when CORNELIOUS TRIED TO kneel at the feet of peter , PETER SAID GET UP , I AM BUT A MAN .
THEIR POPES DO NO SUCH THING . THEY SIT ON THRONES , having men to come before them and kneel and kiss their rings .
PETER did not such thing NOR would he ever have supported any such thing being done unto HIM
SO , THERE IT IS . HEED NOT THE CC PEROID . NOT ONCE . expose it .
Try answering the question.
Does the RCC obey the scribes and pharisees?
Greek says Petra.
Petra is Rock.
Rock is Christ, not Peter.
As much as i oppose the Catholic dogma that the apostle Peter was the first leader of the Catholic church, you're absolutely wrong when you claim Peter wasn't the head of God's Church. Simon Peter's very surname signifies that he was the lead apostle because the term "Peter" was widely recognized throughout the ancient world as the title of a religious leader.Peter was not the head of the Church! At the Council of Jerusalem, when the Apostles came together with the Church to decide what would be done with the Gentiles who were being saved, would they be bound to the Law of Moses?
All the apostles spoke, including Peter, but it was James who had the final say of what was to be done.
James was the head Pastor of the Church, theefaith! He was the one who gave instruction to Paul to do various things in the name of the Church, not Peter. So, my friend, you are wrong again!
Explain Matthew 16:18.explain eph 2:20
