To be clear on this, Christianity is the fraud and Catholicism is the home for the insight of Peter.

Now let me take you back to this post-resurrection fishing trip where Peter was naked and totally bereft of faith after Thomas had betrayed him in Jn.20:28. So here then (Jn.21:7) Peter put on a cloak once again and dove head-first into the [celestial] sea and there gathered fishes that are large and easy to catch, yet are far beyond the reach of our lymbic system that we tread daily along the road-dust of the sun.

So yes, and if ever anyone of us would snare a fish like that it would drag us to Rome which is the yonder shore where Peter is at.

Just to refresh the thread.


The fact that the State of Israel and the Church, that was built upon the confession of Peter, both exist is a powerful witness to all the nations of the earth. :wave:
The tragedy here is that the State of Israel is meant to be a state of mind
and not a piece of land that obviously is not theirs but is wrought out of them so both will have peace.

Try to read Gen.2:10-14 with the insight that identified Peter as the rock and the whole nation Is-ra-el will blow up un your face

Peter was not the brightest bunny in the wood.
He had some sort of memory problem.



Best wishes,

Yes, Pete, I think he is trying to say that it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. He must have seen that the whole world rested on his shoulders and that is a big challenge to overcome.

Nice line, I think, thank you.
