To whom did Christ give the keys to the Kingdom?
It’s in the Bible.........He gave them to Peter.
This means Christ chose Peter as the leader of his Church after his Ascension.

Clearly, the church that Rome separated from did not believe in the perpetuity of Peter's seat, otherwise they would have recognized the Bishop of Rome as the Pontifix Maximus, instead of "first among equals."
If Rome wants to argue tradition, their claim pales in comparison to the tradition of the EO.

That's Rome's fictionalized Netflix version. Jesus gave ALL the Apostles the keys to kingdom - it was the GOSPEL! It's in the Bible.
