    If Peter wasn't the first pope, who was?

    So you are saying that we cannot believe scriptures and that is corrupted? Also ,how is this counter factual-you have not given me any proof.

    I say also unto thee [to Peter], That thou art Peter [petros-small stone], and upon this Rock [petra-large rock] I will build My church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it" (Matt. 16:18). The text indicates clearly that the church of Christ is built on petra and not on Petros.

    If Peter wasn't the first pope, who was?

    My point and answer to the initial question is that Magus(magi) was the founder at Rome,not Peter.Old Persian texts, predating the Hellenistic period, refer to a magus as a Zurvanic, and presumably Zoroastrian, priest.

    If Peter wasn't the first pope, who was?

    In regards to Simon Magus ,as I stated from scripture,he was a Samaritan and practiced sorcery. The woman at the well did not know the God the Father,hence Jesus statement to her about not knowing who she worshiped.Demographics in religion has certainly changed since then but the fact is that...

    Celebrating Christmas ?

    This is no new understanding! But the churches of the world hide or ignore this truth! The Catholic Encyclopedia reveals: "Christmas was not among the earliest festivals of the Church.

    The word soul and spirit is used at least 1600 times in the Bible and never once are said to be immortal.Have a look at Genesis 3:19-22 where God is quite clear that we die and that man did not take from the tree of life and does not live forever-unless God allows it.You will see what I mean...
