Jesus is the First Bishop

Matthew 16
13 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? 14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. 15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? 16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. 17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. 18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

So you see when Simon Peter presented the answer, Jesus knows that the Father has blessed Simon Peter with wisdom. Jesus is the foundation and also the place they were at the time, Caesarea Philippi, an ancient Roman city.

Further, with Jesus as the foundation is the same as saying Jesus is the founding Bishop of the Roman Catholic Church because the Bible speaks of Bishops and Deacons. When Jesus said to Peter "I will give unto thee the keys...", it is indicative that Jesus has in mind that Simon Peter is His successor to being bishop.

The Bible is a code cause most probably there is hostility between government and religion. Jesus said Give to Caesar the things that are Caesar's and to God, the things that are God's.

Let us say we are brothers and sisters in the congregation, even then, there is hierarchy. The following are Filipino family terms derived from the Chinese language:

ate = appellation for eldest sister
from a ci  ("a" is a prefix for relationships; "ci" means older sister)

ditse = appellation for second eldest sister
from di ci  ("di" means second and "ci" means older sister)

kuya = appellation for elder brother
from ko a ("ko" is an appellation for older brother; "a" is a suffix)

diko = appellation for second elder brother
from di ko a ("di" means second  and "ko" is an appellation for older brother)

sanse =appellation for third elder sister
from sa ci  ("sa" means third and "ci" means older sister)

sangko = appellation for third elder brother
from sa ko a ("sa" means third  and "ko" is an appellation for older brother)

siyaho = referential term for elder sister's husband
from cia hu ("cia" means older sister and "hu" means husband)

ingkong = grandfather 

inso = address term for elder brother's wife

What I am saying is that the religions are the same in spirit. We just have to see the similarities than the differences which are negligible because every people have their own identity. In spite of these differences in point of view, clothes, language among others, people generally get along with each other.

The respectful way to address officials is to call them Bishops and Deacons as said in the Bible. The Church is just starting back then that is why only Bishops and Deacons are needed to be officials. And it is fine and allowed in the Bible to add titles as long as it is not "The Father".

So you guys wonder. Where is Mohammad? Am I forgetting Mohammad? In case you are uninformed, the Muslim is the bride of Jesus.

What I am talking about here is the marriage of ideas - In the Bible, the verse that says "Seek the kingdom of God and all of these things shall be added unto you" have the same essence with the Muslim "Jihad" which is to search knowledge and you shall have rewards...

It is also written that Jesus said to Simon Peter that the latter will deny him 3 times when Jesus was being persecuted or scrutinized by the good cops and the bad cops because Jesus was courting the special woman. I think this is a coded message that means Simon Peter reluctantly accepts the leadership of the Catholic Church cause Jesus gets married.
