Is Peter Supreme Among The Apostles? by OLAADEGBU(m): 11:58pm On Aug 23, 2017
Is Peter supreme among the apostles? If so:

1. Where is the evidence that Peter ruled the other apostles?
2. If Peter is supreme among the apostles, why does he never refer to himself as such?
3. If Peter is supreme among the apostles, why do none of the other apostles refer to him in such a way?
4. If Peter is supreme among the apostles, why is he listed second in the list of the pillars of the church in Gal. 2:9?
5. If Peter is supreme among the apostles, why is he rebuked by Paul in Gal. 2:11 for Peter's error in doctrine?
6. If Peter is supreme among the apostles, why did Jesus not appear to him first after the resurrection? That privilege went to Mary Magdalene (Mark 16:9-11).
7. If Peter is supreme among the apostles, why did he write only two N.T. books while Paul, the apostle to the Gentiles (Gal. 2:7), wrote 13?

The apostolic calling and ordination of Peter was done directly by Our Lord Jesus. He displayed much exuberant at every occasion During their Apostolic training with Jesus above all other Apostle.

Jesus saw the dynamic leadership traits in him to drive the World evangelism, so he was chosen above all the twelve apostles.

However, the lack of higher Education stocked the fire in him sometimes especially when he is amongst highly educated Elites of his time. Paul was not lacking in this department of highest Educational qualification of their time and so Paul went farther than Peter. In all Peter by calling is superior or Senior to Paul

God bless u.
