Do ‘t invite them! LOL!

They don’t believew Jesus when he gave the Keys to the Kingdom to Peter!

Yet they believe in Peter’s books in the Bible.

Where is their truth?

Is that even a serious question? After all this time you SHOULD know where "our" truth is. It is the Holy Scriptures, The Holy Bible, because that is the ONLY thing God gave us that is infallible. The very words Jesus spoke while here on earth were written down under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit just as they were when Jesus ascended back to heaven, he continued to reveal truth through the Holy Spirit to those who were chosen to write it down.

Did Jesus give the "keys of the kingdom" to Peter? Yes, He did, but he gave those same keys to the other disciples as well. As much as I like jokes starting with, "St. Peter was standing at the pearly gates...", he isn't. The Gospel of Jesus Christ IS the key and it is the faith in that Gospel, in Him, which is what the church is built upon. I believe Jesus, not some ambitious guys hundreds of years later who thought having a pope/king would help consolidate their power.
