And if we can allow for the identity of the house as being that of Peter, then we are not just talking about any old house, or any gathering place. We are talking about Peter’s house, the Church.

Uhhh....no. No where is the church called Peter's house. It is the Lord's House I attend on Sundays.

The church was built on the blood of Jesus.

Peter, Paul, James and the rest of the apostles shared the Gospel.

Ephesians 2:19-20 says that the “household of God” is “built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus Himself being the corner stone” ... so it would seem that there is indeed a sense in which the Church is built on the Apostles.
