Peter was given no such authority; he was given a command that what was bound on Earth would be that which was already bound in heaven.

You pulled a switcheroo here! The evidence you requested (by placement) was the statement by Christ that he hated the nicolaitans, to which I directed you.
The facts concerning Paul replacing the “apostle” falsely appointed by men is in the Acts. Are you so unschooled in the scriptures that you are not familiar with the calling of Paul on the Damascus reoad?
“Peter was given no such authority; he was given a command that what was bound on Earth would be that which was already bound in heaven.”
Nonsense. He was given the authority (along with the other apostles to forgive sin. You need to go reread matthew again. It’s all right there in Scripture!
“You pulled a switcheroo here! The evidence you requested (by placement) was the statement by Christ that he hated the nicolaitans, to which I directed you.”
And I’m contesting your argument as it is found nowhere in scripture.
“The facts concerning Paul replacing the “apostle” falsely appointed by men is in the Acts.”
Where?
“Are you so unschooled in the scriptures that you are not familiar with the calling of Paul on the Damascus reoad?”
Absolutely I am familiar with that Account, as well as with Paul’s own statement that HE WAS NOT ONE of the 12!
