AAre Protestants Wrong About Peter and the Keys of the Kingdom??

from The Least of These Podcast with Jayni Jackson · host Jayni Jackson

In this episode of The Least of These Podcast, Jayni Jackson traces the “keys” motif through Scripture, from Isaiah 22 to Revelation 3, to uncover what Jesus was actually saying—and why the Catholic interpretation collapses under biblical, historical, and theological scrutiny.Watch until the end, because this one detail changes everything about how we understand the Church, authority, and the gospel itself.#peter #KeysOfTheKingdom #catholicchurch #papacy #matthew16 #protestantapologetics #leastofthesepodcast #biblestudy #BiblicalTruth #ChristianApologetics #catholicdebate #reformation #jesusislord #gospeltruth #bibleexplained #churchhistory #CatholicDoctrine #biblicalauthority #scripturealone #solascriptura #PeterAndTheKeys #apologetics #christianityexplained #faith #jesuschrist
