Likewise the Church. Peter rules, and if a question arises about that ruling, Peter rules again. And again. And again. The authority is always there, always in the same place, and always capable of providing firm and sure guidance.

Peter doesn't rule my church, Christ does. And His (Christ's) authority is always there.) Peter's is in fact in the same place, Peter is DEAD and therefore can not provide any guidance, or anything else for that matter.

In Christ...Alone!

Amen!

Secondly, I thought Peter was assigned to be the apostle to the Jews, while Paul was the apostle to the gentiles?

So it is your position that Christ as the head of the Church--and I agree with you about that by the way--absolutely excludes any lesser authority as a matter of principle?
