1.Yes I read my post.Proof read it.
2.Peter was no successor of any sort.There are no successors in Christianity.Just followers.This is not a royal position being passed down.Peter and the rest of the other disciples had a mission to spread the Word concerning the Kingdom of God.God is our creator and Jesus is our Shepherd.Jesus came to teach and pass on the Word.He died as a ransom sacrifice after he was done.Those who heard and saw Jesus became witnesses of the power and glory of God the Almighty.True Christianity is what Jesus preached to his followers in the 1st century.Anything other than that is not true christianity.Christendom is counterfeit christianity.
3.Jesus dressed like all the rest of the poor.Although poor,they still had weddings,festivals and dressed up.There were no suits in Jesus day.Today,suits are the norm for going out or attending important functions.There were those though who dressed like royalty and considered themselves above the rest.
Luke 20:46 "Beware of the teachers of the law. They like to walk around in flowing robes and love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces and have the most important seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets.
Luke 11:43 "Woe to you Pharisees, because you love the most important seats in the synagogues and respectful greetings in the marketplaces.
It is the same today.
READ THIS.
The
sto·le′, as referred to in the Christian Greek Scriptures, was a stately robe reaching down to the feet. Jesus criticized the scribes for loving to wear this type of robe in public places to attract attention and to impress people with their importance. (
Lu 20:46) The angel at Jesus’ tomb was wearing this form of clothing. (
Mr 16:5) It was this robe, “the best,” that was put on the prodigal son at his return. (
Lu 15:22) And the martyred servants of God in John’s vision are clothed with the
sto·le′ (
Re 6:11), as are also the members of the “great crowd.”—

Popes,bishops,cardinals etc... these walk around with long robes and expect respect.Living in lavish mansions while the poor are helpless.It is all part of the big show.You here of these things all the time.One recently,a bishop was busted buying a 44 million dollar mansion.Another was caught smuggling in millions and arrested into Vatican city.He was involved with the Vatican bank.These people have their own agenda as did the Pharisees in the days of Jesus.They are proud and rich.They walk around with rich garments and expect respect from everyone.Jesus would not approve of this behavior.He did not then, and he will not today.
4.Just to add to what I already stated before.No,these men are not humble.Jesus and his followers were humble.Being humble and like a child when it comes to learning and preaching the word of God is being christ like.Using the golden rule and applying it daily.Loving others more than yourself.Helping those in need and feeding the poor.It says in the holy scriptures that the meek shall inherit the earth.
Matthew 5:5 Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.
Meek:quiet, gentle, and easily imposed on; submissive:
Humble:having or showing a modest or low estimate of one's own importance:
These are not the traits of those who run the Vatican.
Jesus would never be part of what you see today in the Vatican.He is against everything they stand for.Idol worship,greed,murder,homosexuality etc.. These are things of the devil,not of God.
I am not misinformed.It is quite the opposite,I am awake and can see the lies.Those who can not see this are blinded and spiritually sick.
2 Corinthians 4:4 The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.
