Christ is the Rock. Through scripture he is referred to as the Rock. On THIS rock he builds his church.

It reminds me of leftist democracy: one man, one vote, one time.

The Euro-style Rome-First Catholics point to Matthew 16:18 in order to set the primacy of the priests above the Bible.

They’re nothing like the growing breed of U.S. Catholics who will actually study the Bible to try and see what God is saying. Which is not what their Euro-style/Hispanic-style cousins do.

Chuck, try as you might, and wish as you may, Jesus did NOT call HIMSELF "Petra and upon this Rock I will build My Church".....he named PETER, Petra and said to and of him..."Upon this ROCK I will build me Church.

I know you non-Catholics have a bad time with this and you try to twist Jesus's words, but you can't. Your preachers try very hard to convince you, but........

Jesus ASCENDED into heaven.....SOMEONE HAD TO BE THE HEAD CHEESE HEre on EARTH TO SPREAD THE GOSPEL!!!!

Really, now,if you would take 2 quiet seconds to reflect on this, you would accept this.

Hello, even GM's CEO PICKS his REPLACEMENT TO CARRY ON THE BUSINESS........geesh.
