Likewise, if you have been TAUGHT that Peter WAS NOT the Rock and this belief is critical to your rejection of Catholicism, then it is very difficult to accept that the Lord meant EXACTLY what He said.

The Lord DID mean exactly what He said...That's why we know Jesus is the Rock and Peter is the stone...

It's not a parable like John 6...

You are Peter; upon this rock...
If that's the way Jesus spoke to refer to Peter, He would have flunked 6th grade Greek...

And if He was speaking in Aramaic?
