Friends, today’s Gospel spells out the importance of Peter’s confession. For it is upon this inspired confession that the Church is built. Not on popular opinion, and not on personal holiness. It is built upon the inspired authority of Peter.https://t.co/2GLGKhmJlN pic.twitter.com/RUodhYEfSb

Reading it as referring exclusively to the bishop of Rome, when others would read Peter's confession as applying to all bishops, and not just all bishops, but possibly the laity as well. After all, Christ is the Rock, and Peter participates in the Rock who is Christ through faith.
