it's not peter's power

it's the power of God in Peter

Matthews 10:20

Peter was initially the head of the Church, he was the rock upon which it was built

Huh

Why didn't Peter's ability to raise the dead be given to his successor

bible bot is offline

Why can't the pope raise the dead

When Peter passed on the job of head of the Church so too was this passed on

Peter could

Because that was unrelated to his position as head of the Church

That was a miracle

And by the way any Priest can perform a miracle

It wasn't an isolated incident

```Matthew 10:20
[20]For it is not you that speak, but the spirit of your Father that speaketh in you.```

If you wanted that verse

Transubstantiation

peter didn't have the ability to resurrect people

God may have resurrected people through him

but this wasn't an attribute of Peter, the man

@Eoppa Where does it say that specific power is given on

It is something vested in Peter as the rock upon which the Church is built

Where does it say that

From Matthew 16:18

For that specific thing

Where does it say the key can be passed on

This comes from the nature of Apostolic succession, which we first see in the Bible with the replacement of Judas

Did the keys die with Peter?

Can we not be saved?

Acts 1:21-26 for the replacement of Judas

@Caballería that's relying on interpretation

I already outlined this, he now thinks that the apostolic church died after the schism

Not definite word

Where do you find definitive word?

Well if you'd like, we can look at how Paul talks about handing over Authority in Timothy

Im talking about Peter

Peters situation is different from the others

Or we could look at the early Church Fathers

No

Caballeria we've been through most of this

He denies history as giving any truth
