Is the Pope Really the Appointed Successor to the Apostle Peter?

Is the Pope Really the Appointed Successor to the Apostle Peter?

  • Semi-Technical
  • Gregg R. Allison

This article looks at the Roman Catholic concept of apostolic succession. It explores how this concept emerged out of an episcopalian church government and an understanding of the interconnection of Christ and his church. It then follows up with what evangelicals believe concerning apostolicity, namely, the Word-centredness of the church that has as its focus the writings of the apostles.

God is always trying to give good things to us, but our hands are too full to receive them. Augustine
