And once again it's enlightening to look at the Greek. In the verses used in the above article the word for the word for all believers being stones is "lithos" which by Strong's definition means a stone smaller than a Petros which was Peter is a stone. But the word used for which the ekklesia (church) is built on is Petra which is a much larger "mass of connected rock".
4073 pétra (a feminine noun) – "a mass of connected rock," which is distinct from 4074 (Pétros) which is "a detached stone or boulder" (A-S). 4073 (pétra) is a "solid or native rock, rising up through the earth" (Souter) – a huge mass of rock (a boulder), such as a projecting cliff.
It continually staggers me what Catholics get all worked up over.
Here they are, blowing a gasket because we insist that JESUS is who the church is founded on instead of Peter.
REALLY?!?!?!
Like who would I rather have it founded on?
Who better to have it founded on?
Who more worthy for it to be founded on than He who died for us and to whom all power and authority in heaven and on earth is given?
And they’re MAD because we don’t agree with them that it’s Peter?
Jesus who?
You mean the guy that’s just an afterthought in some religious systems?
I know the LATIN is even MORE interesting; for I'd bet GOOD money that is the language the folks in reply #47 were fluent in!!
