Galatians 1 verse 18..Apostle Paul said this:
"Then after 3 years I went UP TO JERUSALEM TO SEE PETER, and abode with him 15 days...
Wow! If he was the Pope in Rome what was he doing hanging out in Jerusalem? Simple: He was the Apostle to The Jews, Paul was assigned to The Gentiles. (Romans, etc) bummer.

So very True RBA238.
Galatians 2:7-8
[SUP]7 [/SUP]But on the contrary, seeing that I had been entrusted with the gospel to the uncircumcised, just as Peter had been to the circumcised [SUP]8 [/SUP](for He who effectually worked for Peter in his apostleship to the circumcised effectually worked for me also to the Gentiles),
Peter brought the Gospel to the circumcised. Paul brought the Gospel to the uncircumcised who are the gentiles.
Therefore it would have been Paul who was in line to be the first Pope, not Peter. Also it was Paul who was in charge of the Disciples, not Peter.
This proves the Catholic's see's nothing wrong with deceiving people into following the Catholic Church instead of God.

Another revelation regarding the Vatican: They are the only "Christian"Church ( cough, cough) who are Voting members of The United Nations.
I never read in my Bible where Jesus ever hobnobbed with politicians. He called the Religious Leaders in his days, "Hypocrites" He never condoned any of what The Catholic Church now does worldwide.

"And I John saw these things, and heard {them}. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.
Then saith he unto me, See {thou do it} not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God."
Revelation 22:8,9
Then saith he unto me, See {thou do it} not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God."
Revelation 22:8,9
In the context of someone doing the same before Peter (as with Cornelius)
Acts 10:25 Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him.
Peter's proper response was
Acts 10:26 But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.
In the context of an angel (as with John)
Rev 22:8 And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.
The response of an angel sent from God
Rev 22:9 Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God.
In the context of Joshua even (as before the Ark also)
Jos 7:6 And Joshua rent his clothes, and fell to the earth upon his face before the ark of the LORD until the eventide, he and the elders of Israel, and put dust upon their heads.
The LORD here answered Joshua too
Jos 7:10 And the LORD said unto Joshua, Get thee up; wherefore liest thou thus upon thy face?
Theres a few places of falling on ones face before either Apostle, an Angel, and the Ark (3 A's)

I have learned that we are amongst wolves that are in out right sheer rebellion and are very subtle. Christ said for judgment He came into the world and that some in our own household will be our enemies. I've walked in this world kind of taking the verses as not too seriously, but there comes a time we need to realize that this is very important for us to comprehend. And thus act accordingly to how Christ instructs about this matter.
