Got it, the "kingdom of Heaven" isn't really Heaven.

Just wanted you to remember heaven only has ONE KING , The same one that is the cornerstone of the church

Do you believe it is an actual key ring? As I was saying, Protestants are really good at figuring out ways to dismiss as insignificant whatever is inconvenient.

No answer huh wag? What do the keys open? The Mormons believe one has to be approved by Joseph Smith to get into heaven..do we need peters approval?

Exactly what did Peters key open Wag?

Isn't it funny how Protestant theology "grows" to address what they oppose at the moment? The reality is that neither Luther nor Calvin ever suggested that Saint Peter wasn't the Pope or that the Virgin Mary wasn't the Mother of God, but those things became "necessary" for Protestants later, so it was changed.

And catholics did not always agree on what constituted the scriptures , or private confession to a priest nor did they HAVE to believe as a doctrine the bread was the body of Christ or that may was assumed into heaven

BTW Luther thought the pope was the anti christ I believe

You can not tell us what the keys open ..so you do go on and on :)

Thought you might like to read this

...Why have I wanted to make this little introduction? In order to suggest to you that in Peter the Church is to be recognized. Christ, you see, built his Church not on a man but on Peter's confession. What is Peter's confession? 'You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.' There's the rock for you, there's the foundation, there's where the Church has been built, which the gates of the underworld cannot conquer.
Sermons, Volume III/6, Sermon 229P.1, p. 327.

So Wag one more time.. what did the keys open?

It's sounded more than just a little Gnostic to me, combined with all the "mystery" of this or that.
