WHAT IS THE CATHOLIC CHURCH? WHERE DID THE EARLY CHURCH GO? WHAT CHURCH DID JESUS START? (Q&A)

Описание: Last year, when we took one of our DTBM Academy classes at St. Peter's here in Rome, we had the thrill of doing a short overview of all the topics we would cover in our Life & Letters of Paul course.

We were teaching Romans and Galatians in Rome. We made these lessons as part of that: The History of Romanism, Justification & Luther, What is the Mass, and How Did we get from the NT Church to all the Denominations, Orthodox & Roman Catholic Churches?

I finished the Vatican visit lessons with this class--Was Peter the First Pope?

Here is the recording of all those lessons from past classrooms. Today, we, like Luther, have some questions we want to be answered about Roman Catholicism. Who would be better to answer them than the supposed first Pope, the founder of the Roman Catholic Church, the Apostle Peter? First, was he really the Pope? Not as the Roman Catholic Church represents him. Why?

Peter had a wife and mother-in-law (Mark 2, 1 Cor. 9:5).

Peter never thought nor taught that the church was built on him (I Pet. 2:4-7). Jesus Christ is the chief cornerstone.

Then, what did he teach? Well, let’s ask him by way of the New Testament-inspired books and see:

An Interview with St. Peter

St. Peter was prominent in the early Church. The Book of Acts records several of his early sermons, and he authored two books of the Holy Scriptures.

A study of his sayings sheds light on his attitude toward the Church and its teachings.

How would he have answered the questions of Catholics and Protestants in this ecumenical age? We have written and addressed some, as it were, to St. Peter.

His replies are taken from his speeches and writings, as we have them in the Holy Scriptures. We have used only the approved Confraternity edition of the Scriptures in giving St. Peter’s replies.

Could you tell us, St. Peter, how we can be saved from our sins?
“Whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Acts 2:21).
Set your hope completely upon that grace which is brought to you in the revelation of Jesus Christ” (1 St. Peter 1:13).
