Facts of History Which Refute and Contradict Roman Catholic Claims for the Papacy
-snip
A thorough examination of the patristic exegesis of the Matthew 16 passage can be found here. That article examines the interpretation of the rock of Matthew 16:18 by the fathers of the early Church to see if there is a unanimous consensus of the meaning of this passage as well as John 21:15-17 and Luke 22:32. Is the Vatican I interpretation of these famous passage the same as that of the early Church fathers?
The evidence clearly reveals the church fathers did not interpret the rock of Matthew 16 as supportive of the Roman Catholic papacy or that they believed the bishops of Rome to be infallible when teaching in their official capacity ex cathedra. A patristic consensus for the Roman Catholic interpretation of the petrine passages simply does not exist. This completely undermines the theological foundation upon which the edifice of the papacy is erected.-snip
