Are you ignoring Christ’s words to Peter?

“You are Cephas and upon this rock I will build my church.”

And again in John:
“You are Simon the son of John;
you will be called Cephas” — which is translated Peter.

No, but you are...

“You are Cephas and upon this rock I will build my church.”

This is what Jesus actually said instead of your perversion...

Mat 16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

There is no 'Cephas' in there anywhere...In fact, there isn't a single bible out there that has the word Cephas in that verse..., except one...

You constantly tell us what Peter and Cephas means in the Aramaic but low and behold...Here it is in the Aramaic translated into English...

Aramaic Bible in Plain English
“Also I say to you, that you are Kaypha, and upon this stone I shall build my church, and the gates of Sheol will not withstand it.”

Oh no!!! Look at that...

And again in John:
“You are Simon the son of John; you will be called Cephas” — which is translated Peter.

So we know the Catholic version of John 1:42 is a corruption, again...Cephas is translated stone from the Aramaic...Thus: the correct translation is:

Joh_1:42 And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus beheld him, he said, Thou art Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone.

Are you PURPOSELY ignoring the REST of Christ’s words?
