"I will give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven."
We discuss the various analogies used by our Lord in relation to Peter's role as prince of the apostles (and, by extension, the Pope's role as head of the Church) -- especially the rock, the keys, and binding and loosing.
We consider the primacy of Peter and how this primacy is given through the petrine office to the bishop of Rome who is Pope of the universal Church. We also discuss what we do and don't believe about papal elections and about infallibility.
