The verses you quoted are talking about The United States of America. As far as the question posed in the title of the thread, yes Peter was the rock of the church. For the simple every day man of little faith to comprehend christianity, we has to go with the simple minded in mind and the religion had to be very parental in nature. It also had to be run by the Catholics with great power. If it was not then the religion would have been lost completely, or altered into oblivion by the secret society gnostic influences or another ruling power that would have genocided christians. The catholics preserved it well until it was strong enough to get it out from under their wing with the protestants. The catholics were bad and they altered the religion but the motivations were easy to see, money and power, and were easily reversed when the time was right. |

Seems he had an in with God that no one prior nor since has had. That would make him a very special snowflake. We'll henceforth refer to both him and his followers as "flakes". |

And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch. The chariots of God are tens of thousands, and thousands of thousands. |

He was the first to expose the blasphemous threat of hell fire and inspired his associates to share their bible studies freely with others. |

God's word was not intended to be understood by anyone other than Jesus' disciples; "A revelation by Jesus Christ, which God gave him, to show his servants the things that must shortly take place. And he sent forth his angel and presented [it] in signs through him to his servant John, 2 who bore witness to the word God gave and to the witness Jesus Christ gave, even to all the things he saw. 3 Happy is he who reads aloud and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and who observe the things written in it; for the appointed time is near. 4 John to the seven congregations that are in the [district of] Asia: May YOU have undeserved kindness and peace from “The One who is and who was and who is coming,” and from the seven spirits that are before his throne, 5 and from Jesus Christ, “the Faithful Witness,” “The firstborn from the dead,” and “The Ruler of the kings of the earth.” Rv1:1 |
