Catholic Faith Crisis

Roman Catholics really need to spend more time reading their Bibles than having the priest interpret it for them. Besides, even the Good News Translation (GNT) says that Christ is the Rock: 1st Corinthians 10:4  And drank the same spiritual drink. They drank from the spiritual rock that went with them; and that rock was Christ Himself .  It really is something when Roman Catholics really still want to insist that Peter is the Rock.

Yet Roman Catholics still insist that the Church was built on Peter. The chart above is silly for several reasons. Doesn't the maker of this chart realize the difference between you are Peter and upon this rock? I'm amazed at the stupidity that people get even ...
