It's man's fault. I call it one verse theology. Someone will read something in the Bible and think they see something that isn't there. For ex: the catholic church with their claims about Peter being the first pope. The scriptures don't support it.
You and I have been around this Rock before.
You can play your game about Christ referring to himself in the 3rd person and still be proven WRONG.
What is the meaning then, as Christ continues:
“I will give your the keys to the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”
