The assembly kept silent as they listened to Barnabas and Paul. It wasn’t all about Peter, much as Catholics would like to believe.

In the Council of Jerusalem, Peter plays almost no role.

No matter how you slice it, you can’t justify the papacy by using Peter’s role in the NT church as evidence without wholesale twisting and mangling of the Greek.

That's the way I'm seeing it too, metmom.

James calling Peter "SIMEON" says it all, to me.
