Saint Peter as leader and successor of the Lord Jesus Christ has no basis in the Bible

The belief that Peter became the leader and successor of Lord Jesus Christ has no basis in the Bible. instead Apostle Paul introduced him as only the Elder of the Church (Read 1 Peter 5:1-3)

First, Lord Jesus Christ will not choose a leader whom he called Satan (Read Matthew 16:23)

Second, Lord Jesus Christ will not choose a leader whom he said that he lacks faith (Read Matthew 14:25-31)

Third, The Lord will not choose a leader whom many times denied Him.


If Apostle Peter became the leader of the apostles, Why Apostle Paul withstood him in person? (Read Galatians 2:11-14)


If he became the leader, why that when it happened that there is a problem in the Church in Jerusalem regarding circumcision of the Gentiles, Why is it James who judged and not Apostle Peter (Read Acts 15:1-20)

Apostle Peter is not the successor of Lord Jesus Christ because the the head or leadership of Christ in the Church cannot be changed. (Read Colossians 1:18)

Can the head of the Church who is Christ be removed?

Of Course "NOT" the priesthood of Lord Jesus Christ cannot be changed and It will remain forever (Read Hebrews 7:23-24, Luke 1:33 and Daniel 7:27)

Now, Why the teaching of the Catholic Church is that Lord Jesus Christ has a successor and he is Apostle Peter and then his successors are the Popes in Rome?

Daniel 11:20 Then shall stand up in HIS ESTATE a raiser of taxes in the glory of the kingdom: but within few days he shall be destroyed, neither in anger, nor in battle.

11:21 And in HIS ESTATE shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honour of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries. 

Hear, O our God; for we are despised: and turn their reproach upon their own HEAD, and give them for a prey in the land of captivity: (Nehemiah 4:4)

Job 20:6 Though his excellency mount up to the heavens, and his HEAD reach unto the clouds;

20:7 Yet he shall perish for ever like his own dung: they which have seen him shall say, Where is he?
