The amount of useful and pertinent data in this veritable compendium is simply staggering. Whoever ignores it consigns his own work to irrelevance.

No longer may Protestans exclaim "Sola Scriptura" to rebuke Roman Catholic Papal dogma... This work demands serious attention by all students of Scripture and theology.

Jesus, Peter and the Keys raises issues that no serious student of the Bible can blithely ignore. The time has come for Protestants to set aside their aversions to Roman Catholicism which color their interpretation of the New Testament and let the text speak for itself.

Bible verses suddenly leap to life with hiterto unimagined significance, and the once confusing jigsaw puzzle of early Church history comes together into a picture of disarming clarity. Jesus, Peter and the Keys serves up an avalanche of incontrovertible evidence, more overwhelming than any single argument - much of it, remarkably, culled from Protestant sources. The Book is a bomdshell.

While still an evangelical Protestant, I was dismayed to find that the Catholic Church could consistently serve up a devastating "one-two punch" of Biblical and patristic evidence in support of her doctrines. In this study, Butler, Dahlgren, and Hess have shown definitively that the papacy is no exception.
David Palm, Trinity Theological Seminary (Baptist) Graduate
Jesus, Peter and the Keys is an excellent resource for discussion of this most important theological issue... After gathering rich information, the authors push the data to the logical conclusions about the role of the Papacy. The information is invaluable and the conclusions inevitable. Buy this book!
