This book contends that although Peter was considered among the most significant Apostles, there is little evidence to indicate he ever visited the city of Rome. In fact, scholars from many backgrounds agree that there is no Scriptural evidence to support his presence there. The author presents arguments from various scholars, including many Roman Catholics, to show that not only is there no proof that Peter was ever in Rome, but that the idea that he was the Bishop of Rome is likewise highly doubtful. The book carefully examines the language of all early writers whose works that mention Peter, including forged testimonies that Roman Catholic writers have themselves confessed to be untrue. The author goes on to provide an extensive review of Protestant and Catholic viewpoints on the subject, maintaining that the entire fabric of the Roman Catholic Church rests on this questionable assumption. Ultimately, this book argues that there is no proof to validate the Roman claim of Peter's visit to and residence in Rome, and that the entire structure of the Roman Catholic Church therefore crumbles without this essential tenet.
