When pressed for who Jesus thought was the leader of the apostles He rather scolded them for even thinking there was a leader among them.

Luke 22:24 And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest. 25 And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors. 26 But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.

Matthew 23:10 Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ. 11 But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.

Jesus did NOT designate Peter as any type of leader.

I have heard people say " no Pope in Early Church" but now there is:

"did not designate Peter as any type of leader".

All most all Protestants Scholars would disagree that "Peter was not a Leader."

Amazing!
