Peter is not God! When is it that a servant's word is greater than his Master? What is or who is Peter since you are so beholding to him? Peter was one of the disciples; a flawed one at that.

A "new category "Politics"' will be useful if it helps with order or layout (as mentioned in another post) for a healthy evolvement. On the other hand, if a sub-category is necessary for other subjects to get or will be getting one?
The Baptism of Acts 19:1-7_____
Not water alone, but water and Spirit meet God's pattern of baptism. Apollos knew nothing of the influence of the Holy Spirit in the life of John the Baptist (Luke 1:15), of the conception …
(Quote)This interesting. To connect the dots of your responses the questions above I don't see how this is possible. You said:

(Quote)Dave, what is your view and understanding of Peter? Do you see him as the head of the Church? You seem to be, overly, beholding to this one disciple. Are you trying to say the modern Christian Church is built upon Peter? If so, when, w…
(Quote)As for this, you may want to avoid being dogmatic about it. Thus far, you have not been persuasive or convincing. Did the Book of Acts give an example of actual baptisms? You may want to restudy this or abandon your consistent. Am I mi…
