You are PETROS (a movable stone) and upon this PETRA (a large massive rock) I will build my church.

And indeed the word of God shows that Peter was movable in the days following.

Peter a man chosen of God was a holy and humble man, he would be embarrassed at what has become of his name in tradition

And, +Peter seems fairly weak as compared to +James or +Paul. +James organized and presided over the first Council, right? If that is so, that seems to me to be very, very significant. The feel of Scripture is that +Peter took a decidedly second place to +James. +Paul, on the other hand, seems +James's equal in every regard. What was +James's view of ministering to Gentiles, is that what the Council of Jerusalem was convened to review and decide upon?
