“Now what Church had Peter as its first leader? None in Scripture.

Yeah, except for Scripture - “Jesus replied, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by my Father in heaven. And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.”

FoF,

It was based on Peter’s confession of faith and not Peter, d spite your assertion.

Even the Orthodox churches disagree with your claim and have since the time of the Apostles.

So, do you think Peter is The Rock upon which your Church is founded? The gates of hell prevailed against Peter when he denied the Lord three times. He is not the cornerstone of Gods True Church. Only Jesus is. Peters confession that Jesus was the Messiah is the beginning of the Church. But not Peter. It could never be Peter.

1Co 3:21 So don’t boast about following a particular human leader. For everything belongs to you—
1Co 3:22 whether Paul or Apollos or Peter, ............


So, what do you have to say about the above?

Your error is right there at the beginning and corrected by Paul..............

Again, go read it in context for better understanding.
