* The new Catholic Catechism reads: “The task of interpreting the Word of God authentically has been entrusted solely to the Magisterium of the Church, that is, to the Pope and to the bishops in communion with him.” As a Roman Catholic Pope follower you are not allowed to interpret scripture! And by what I have read is that in the entire history of the Roman Catholic Church as little as eleven verses have been translated. This number could be a bit higher or lower. Peter is recognized as the first Pope in Roman Catholic Dogma. However Paul, John, Jude, or James in the epistles never refer to Peter as a Pope. Conversely Peter in his first epistle clearly says the opposite! 1 Peter 5: 1-2 (NASB) Therefore, I exhort the elders among you, as your fellow elder and witness of the sufferings of Christ, and a partaker also of the glory that is to be revealed, 2 shepherd the flock of God among you, exercising oversight not under compulsion, but voluntarily, according to the will of God; and not for sordid gain, but with eagerness; He speaks as an elder, not as Pope. Paul writes the order in structure of the Church in 1 Corinthians 12: 27-28 (NASB), 27 Now you are Christ’s body, and individually members of it. 28 And God has appointed in the church, first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, various kinds of tongues. No mention of a Pope there either. * Section 100 God Bless Brian Mason
