St. Peter was crucified upside down because he requested it. He said he was not worthy to be crucified upright like Jesus. St. Peter was considered the first pope, as Jesus said " And I tell you that you are Peter and on this rock I build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it."
That is what we were told when I went to Catholic school. I always thought it was evil and bad.
I never understood how they pulled a Pope, a person between a person and God, from Peter being the rock. Jesus was the church. Peter was the church. We are the church. It’s in you, not a building. And somehow a figure head rose up out of all that. And a title, and a pope was made. There is no one between a person and Jesus. Not a preacher or am pope. Yet I have talked to many Catholics that have told me that the Pope is the closest to God. The pedestal they place him on. So wrong IMO.
Incorrect. You know nothing so stuff a sock in it. The true church was infiltrated as was our nation. Long ago...like our nation. You dont understand anything about it. Time you learn truths instead of gossip grievances from wanna be churches that pander to peoples whims rather than uphold Christs church . The infiltration of the church began in earnest right after the French revolution. Our nations infiltration began right after the civil war. Long foretold was this infiltration of evil. Evil infiltrates everything good ....but doesnt change it anymore than it changed We the people. If you knew the history chronologically you would not he so buffaloed by faux Churches. In the end...you shall see. Be ready to repent and beg Jesus to forgive your lazy ignorance.
Bella Dodd — How Communists Subverted the Catholic Church
She [Bella Dodd] said that of all the world’s religions, the Catholic Church was the only one feared by the Communists, for it was its only effective opponent. Speaking as an ex-Communist, she said: “In the 1930’s, we put eleven hundred men into the priesthood in order to destroy the Church from within.” The idea was for these men to be ordained and then climb the ladder of influence and authority – to come to be Monsignors and Bishops. Back then she said, “Right now they are in the highest places, and they are working to bring about change in order that the Catholic Church will no longer be effective against Communism.”
She also said that these changes would be so drastic that “you will not recognize the Catholic Church.”
