Argument used to support the Papacy of Catholicism. - An attempt to provide authority. - An appeal to “church” tradition. - Contradicts Truth. C. Catholicism claims an earthly centralized hierarchy all the way back to Peter.

B. Note WHO Is Being Discussed (Mt. 16:13, 15, 16, 17, 20). C. The Greek Points To Christ (16:18): - PETROS (Peter, Pebble) masculine. - PETRA (Rock, Foundation) feminine. D. Christ Is The Rock (PETRA) (1 Cor. 3:11; 10:4; Eph. 2:20).

DID PETER HAVE THE “PRIMACY”? III. PETER DENIED “PRIMACY” (Was Peter The First Catholic Pope?) - Promoted Christ (Acts 4:12; 1 Pet. 2:4-8). IV. PAUL DENIED “PRIMACY” OF PETER - Paul rebuked Peter (Gal. 2:11). - Paul worked more than Peter (1 Cor. 15:10). - Paul was not less than any of the other apostles (2 Cor. 11:5). - Paul directed Bishops to God’s Word, not Rome, Peter, etc (Acts 20:28, 32). - Refused Worship (Acts 10:25-26).

NEITHER! CHRIST IS THE FOCUS!

DID PETER HAVE THE “PRIMACY”? (Was Peter The First Catholic Pope?) VI. JESUS HAS PREEMINENCE IN ALL THINGS. - No “Lord” System (Mt.20:20-28). - No Titles, Including “Father” (Mt. 23:5-12, 9). - Paul Was “Last” Witness (1 Cor. 15:7-8; Ax 1:22). - Traditions Of Men Condemned, Because The Make Void God’s Word (Mt. 15:6). - Christ Is “The” Head (Eph. 1:22; 5:23). WHEN WE RECOGNIZE CHRIST AS THE LORD, WE WILL PAY MORE ATTENTION TO HIS WORD! - Who Is Preeminent in Colossians 1:12-20? (John 12:48; 1 Pet. 2:3-8)
