It's good to see that you're still alive and kicking. I often prayed for you and the many unpleasant excheanges. May the Lord keep you, heal you, and lead you into the fullness of his wisdom and will. With that said, it saddens me to correct your attempted distortions of the clear context of that verse. Chrsit chose Peter begin he had the faith to know that Jesus was the divine Messiah. It was upon this inspired faith given to Peter that God would build his Church. Yes, the Church is build by faith in Christ, but it is a faith and grace transported by Jesus's ordained Apostolic leadership. Jesus created a Church of faith, but also a Church with a clearly ordained leadership. The Protestant obssession with demeaning and destroying the clear leadership that Jesus had created is clearly from a stanic spirit. Read the 15th chapter of Acts and noticed that this Apostolic leadership is in charge of the Church with Peter as chief among the Apostles. Also notice that Paul is clearly in obedience to this leadership and takes the decrees of the First Council of Jerusalem and carries them to the Gentile Churches as laws to be obeyed. This Apostolic leadership has a clear and documented historical foundation. Christ said: "and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ" According to many Protestant Reformers, the "gates of hell had prevailed against the (Catholic era) of the Church. But that would be a contradiction of Jesus's very words. God has worked in his Church in every era and perior of history, despite Protestant efforts at denying and demeaning the many centuries of Catholic worship and evangelism.
