And in verse 18, "When they heard these things, they held their peace,
                and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted
                repentance unto life."


                Acts 14:27 "...they rehearsed all that God had done with them, and how
                he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles."

                Acts 15:7 "...Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, ye
                know how that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the
                Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe."

                4.  In another passage 2 chapters later, Jesus gives the "binding and loosing"

                to more than just Peter.

                Matthew 18:15 "Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go
                and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee,
                thou hast gained thy brother.
                16  But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more,
                that  in  the  mouth  of  two  or  three  witnesses  every  word  may  be

                established.
                17  And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he
                neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a
                publican.
                18  Verily  I  say  unto  you,  Whatsoever  ye [plural]  shall  bind  on  earth
                shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall
                be loosed in heaven."


                      PETER'S WORDS AND ACTIONS WERE CONTRARY TO THE
                                                CONCEPT OF A POPE

                1.  Peter had a wife.  Popes don't.

                Matthew 8:14 "And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his
                wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever."


                Mark 1:30 "But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and anon they
                tell him of her."
