The same might be said about the Nazis in WW2.

Why do we believe Paul?
Probably because he fabricated the idea that Jesus was the Messiah, son of God and that he had resurrected. Read Acts 9:20 and II Timothy 2:8. That's one reason. The other is that you find easier to walk by faith than to walk by sight. (II Cor. 5:7) To walk by sight you ought to have a mind of your own and try to understand where you walk. To walk by faith, you simply leave the understanding with Paul.

Crucible doesn't know the history of John "The Pope of Geneva" Calvin. Crucible is the follower of an evil man, who might end up being judged by God and cast into the Lake of Fire if he didn't adhere to the Grace Gospel?
You're Jewish and deny your Messiah. I really don't think your opinion counts on a Christian forum. Why not find yourself a Jewish Forum where you can share some camaraderie? Believe me, you're not gonna convince any "True Believer" on this forum. You're wasting your time and theirs.

What's at stake for you in this discussion? What dog do you have in this fight that keeps you coming back for more? I don't see where you or Chair have one.

You are mentally deranged. No, that was NOT what I was referring to.
THIS is what I QUOTED from YOU that I REPLIED to and it was right there in my POST.
So you think that the church that was in Jerusalem was stuck at 120? You don't think that it was growing?
On the day of Pentecost alone, they added 3 thousand.

Hahahaha.... you've got issues. Seek help immediately.
Acts 12:17 (KJV)
(12:17) But he, beckoning unto them with the hand to hold their peace, declared unto them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go shew these things unto James, and to the brethren. And he departed, and went into another place.
You are FORCING (or trying to force) scripture to mean what YOU WANT it to mean. It does NOT mean that.
The word that YOU think is "report" is:
G518 ἀπαγγέλλω apaggello (ap-an-ğel'-lō) v.
to declare, announce.
[from G575 and the base of G32]
KJV: bring word (again), declare, report, shew (again), tell
Root(s): G575, G32
There is NO sense of a hierarchy here. If there was then THE BRETHREN were also leaders along with James.

Spoken like to true "believer". Peter's disappearance is quite significant and yet you try to make it nothing with a wave of your magic wand.
And it is NOTABLE that IMMEDIATELY thereafter, Luke begins accompanying Paul and his group INSTEAD of Peter and the eleven.

So what you are now? A Reformed Roman Catholic?
Peter in Rome? Now who's the revisionist?
P.S. Please feel free to give us the "orthodox majority view" of these significant of these events.

Make no mistake. If they had the political power, they would feel themselves perfectly justified by God to start "reconverting" or vaporizing heretics, starting with those troublesome dispensationalists.

I gave a clear answer. It appears that both you and Lilstu don't like real answers.

Spoken like a true double-talker.The Reformists never denied Peter in Rome, as that was, and still is, accepted history. Like the Greeks, the Reformists saw that while Peter's seat had high sentiment, it had no special authority.
You all's denial of Peter in Rome is just a part of your complete nonsense. It goes to show how utterly heretical you all really are

You just continue to flaunt your stupidity.
There was, at one time, an actual city named Babylon. It's NOT the same thing as "Babylon the Great".
Matt 1:11-12 (KJV)
(1:11) And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon: (1:12) And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel;
