The False doctrine of Roman Catholic papal infallibility It is true that the apostle Peter was the one chosen (Mt. 16:17-19) to first set forth the instructions that were necessary to enter into the kingdom of heaven or God on earth - both to the Jews on Pentecost (Acts 2) and to the Gentiles at Caesarea (Acts 10 & 11).
