Papal authority refers to the spiritual and administrative power held by the Pope, the leader of the Roman Catholic Church. It encompasses the Pope's role in guiding doctrine, making moral decisions, and exercising governance over church matters. This authority is rooted in the belief that the Pope is the successor of Saint Peter, who was appointed by Jesus as the head of his apostles. As such, the Pope is considered the supreme earthly authority on issues of faith and morals within the Catholic Church.
