I don't think we use the term 'Pope of Rome'. We believe Peter to be the first Bishop of Rome, which is the Office of the Pope. The early Church Fathers considered Rome to have primacy.

I think that would depend on which early Church Father was under discussion . . . and then it would depend on in what context and over what issue(s).

But Angel-Gal is the early church father in my network. Perhaps she will correct me.
