Peter is a little rock, a stone, just as are all the saints. Only God is a Rock. Peter was never meant to be a god. He himself says so

.Pe 2:5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

My goodness, you thought I was arguing he was a GOD? Holy cow, I have to explain myself better.

Of course Peter is not a God. But if "only" God is a rock, why does Christ call Peter the Rock at all?
