[Salvation]

Christ founded his Church on Peter and the Apostles — the first Pope and Bishops.

Can you get your brain around that?

Yes, I can understand that but that is not what Jesus meant. Salvation comes through HIM, not the church. He is our salvation. Please look at John 14:6. Yes, Jesus built His church on Peter and the others but it was their confession of Jesus being Lord and Savior. Check out Romans 10:9,10.

“The natural man receives not the things of the Spirit, they are foolishness unto him.” (1 Corinthians 2:14)

Yes I can get my brains around that; but I cannot get my spirit around it!

Jesus said: “It is the spirit that quickeneth, the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak they are spirit, and they are life,” John 6:63)

Jesus also said: “I will build My church....not others, but My church” (Matthew 16:18)

.....that spiritual Rock that followed them; that Rock was Christ.” (1 Corinthians 10: 4)

HaHaHa...Problem is, we have the bible for confirmation...Peter didn't see himself as a pope...Peter would have spit on any man who claimed to be chief apostle, or pope...
