I note that Paul didn't mention Peter in this passage. His statement was much more broad.
No, he just didnt mention Peter by name. And why would he if Peter was a hunted man living in Rome itself?
In that case ... most churches do have all of the offices you mentioned (i.e. bishop/pastor, priest/elder, and deacons).
Nope. Protestant sects have offices created by men, not by Christ or the Church. You could start calling yourself a bishop tomorrow if you wanted to. Who would stop you? Would that make you a bishop, however? No. The Church makes bishops after Christ sent the Apostles.
Could you be a bit more specific ?
The Mass is described in Matthew, Mark and Luke in the Eucharistic narratives. It is seen in prophecy in John 6. It is described in 1 Cor. 11. It is described in Rev. as the worship in heaven.
So confirmation is the laying on of hands ... to receive the Holy Spirit ?
Yep.
I'm afraid I don't see it.
Then you must have a serious problem. You know that principalities and powers in HEAVENLY PLACES means angels right? And who or what makes known to them that manifold wisdom of God? The verse says the Church does. The Church teaches even angels.
Why ... those scriptures you are a' spinnin'
May God forgive you. ;^)
