If Peter was the Pope?

Question

and he was married.....why are the current ones not allowed?

Did God change his mind?

Answer 1

Peter wasnt a Pope

The CC made it up to lift themselves up.

No office of Pope ordained by God

Answer 2

The Bible does not support any where the position of a Pope! Today we have a high priest, Jesus Christ the righteous at the right hand of the father and God's Representative here on earth is the Holy Spirit who reveals and convicts. The Pope apparently claim to be God's Representative here on earth and claims "Divine revelations" from the Lord. Not according to scripture! Little wonder the Lord will destroy the Catholic church during the tribulation for the reasons given in Revelation Ch.17 V1-9

"After much intensive lobbying and some very unchristianlike pressure, the pope suffered a major moral defeat when, out of over 1,000 bishops entitled to take part in the Council, only

451 voted for infallibility. But by a strategy of politicking and threatening all but two of the dissenters left Rome before a final vote was taken. At the last meeting of the council, on July 18, 1870, it was decided by 533 votes to 2 that the pope was infallible when defining a doctrine concerning faith or morals."

1950 -- Assumption of Mary

It is interesting that Peter was the first pope but scripture does not say that anywhere

Answer 4

Is a mistake here. The Peter wasn`t Pope! He is over a pope, a patriach, a episcop, a cardinal, a priest. He was and still is in Holly Heaven a Apostol.

So Peter is over the Pope.

Also I want to mention that the celibat of priest is not canonic. Is a normative inside of catholic church. So maybe we can see in future a Pope with wife. It was also a Pope wich was women !!!

Answer 5

The Biblical accounts do not refer to Peter as a Pope.
You will find this belief specific to the Catholic Church.

No God didn,t change his mind.
If you read the Catholic Catechism it will tell you it is a tradition of the church. You may find more helpful insights at amazing dicoveries.org and 3abn.org

Answer 6

According to the (fictional) New Testament, Peter was married, but he abandoned his wife and family to follow Jesus and spread the "good news." That's the essence of why Catholic priests can't be married. Heck, they're even required to be celibate, for Christ's sake (pun intended).They must abandon all others for the sake of following their god-man. They become symbolically married to their "Messiah." Same situation with Catholic nuns.

Answer 7

if the pope would be allowed to be married now he would have only one woman and that had to be marriage for show as an example of perfect family, so being not allowed to be married he can have as many women as he wish in his hidden life

Answer 8

Priest and bishops were married in earlier times but they were not allowed to have relations it's the same for the Jewish priest when they had service in the temple.

Besides Jesus talks about leaving everything, wife and kids and follow him.

Answer 9

Simple answer yes they are allowed. Not one of the answerer's here are even close to being correct and are mostly outright lies. Not one knows anything about the one True Church the Catholic Church

Answer 10

orthodox came first not catholic...catholics do what they want,
