Who established the first Christian church in Rome?
AnswerWe do not know who established the first Christian church in Rome. In his epistles, Saint Paul tells us that there was already a Christian community in Rome by, perhaps, the 50s of the first century CE. And his epistles suggest that neither James nor Peter had travelled far from Jerusalem during the earliest years of Christianity.If we rule out Paul, James and Peter, then we are left merely to speculate who established the first Christian church in Rome.

Who was the first Roman bishop of the Christian Church?
Christian tradition holds that Peter was the first Roman bishop of the Christian Church. However, there is no evidence that Peter ever even visited Rome. Paul writes of meeting Peter in Jerusalem, presumably in the 50s of the first century, when Peter was still one of the pillars of the Jerusalem church. When Paul wrote of Peter, he would already have been rather old and unlikely to begin overseeing the Roman community. Moreover, scholars say that the role of 'bishop' was only instituted in the second century, by which time Peter would have been long dead. Apart from the tradition about Peter, we do not know who the first Roman bishop of the Christian Church was.
