This is a very complex doctrine that says that the Pope's successor is a legitimate office and that the Bishops of Rome were to choose that successor. What makes it complex from a theological point of view is that Peter was (it is believed) the Bishop of Antioch and it was on him that Christ proclaimed his church. So the succession could be argued to be the Bishop of Antioch to the present should have been the Pope. All of this is based on Matthew 16:17 - 19 if you are at all interested. It is a very famous verse.

Not only that there is another problem. It took 150 years for the Papacy to be established and some time after that to declare how it should be done.

What were some of the different ways Chinese rulers maintained order in ancient china?<br> HELP!!!
diamong [38]

Answer:

the would force lavbor and have brutal punsihments

Explanation:

The emperors of ancient China had tremendous power and responsibility. Called the 'Son of Heaven', he (and once she) was given a divine right to rule over all people but was expected to promote their best interest and not his own. An absolute monarch, although in practice dependent on an inner circle of advisors, the mystique of the emperor was enhanced by his invisibility to ordinary people, secluded as he often was in the imperial palace. To gain a personal audience with the emperor, even if he still remained hidden behind a screen while he sat on his golden dragon throne, was the highest of honours. Perhaps no other ancient ruler was ever as remote or as revered as the Emperor of China.      

Mandate of Heaven

The rulers of the Western Zhou dynasty were the first to take the traditional Chinese worship of ancestors a step further and carry the title 'Son of Heaven' (Tianzi). King Wen of the Zhou, c. 1050 BCE, claimed he, and, as it conveniently tuned out, all of his successors too, had been given the right to rule by the gods (either Heaven or Sky). This was nothing less than a Mandate of Heaven or Tianming, that is, an unchallengeable right to govern. Not actually divine but, rather, ruling on behalf of the gods on earth, the role also carried the great responsibility to take decisions for the good of the people. If he did not rule well, then China would suffer terrible disasters such as floods and droughts and he would lose the right to govern. This was also a useful explanation as to why ruling dynasties changed over the centuries: they had lost the blessing of heaven through misrule.
