Bishops are the successors of the apostles: According to Scripture their mission can be summarised as follows: "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, to the close of the age."(Matthew Ch 28)

A:The Church considers its bishops to be the successors of the apostles. At first, there was no particular bishop designated as the specific successor to Peter. Pope Anicetus (156-166), during the course of a theological argument with the venerable Polycarp of Smyrna, claimed that Peter had travelled to Rome to lead the Christians there and had been beheaded in Rome, meaning that he (Anicetus) spoke with the authority of Peter. From this time forward, the bishops of Rome increasingly insisted that they were the successors of St Peter, until it is now an article of faith that they are.
