I think he meant that Peter was suppose to spread the gospelThat is your interpretation, and I respect that, but the fact remains that for 2,000 years, the first Christian Church, called the Catholic Church, believed then and still believes that Jesus Christ gave the authority on earth for St. Peter to head His church after he died and was resurrected, and left the Holy Spirit to guide the Church.
God bless.

Facts. Interpretation. Perceptions. Biases.
Is Jesus our salvation?
Can he save us if we pray in a Methodist, Church of Christ or Lutheran Church?
You see, I was raised in a catholic neighborhood. To be kind, their behavior did not encourage me to want to be catholic. I married one. She no longer practices.
Like most catholics I was raised around, she treated her membership to the church more as a club and not spiritually.
She was a catholic because her parents were catholic and their parents, ad nauseaum.
