Peter and Paul

And why would Paul be interested in reigning over Peter (by correcting him) when he wasn't one of the twelve who were to reign over the 12 tribes?
Firstly, Paul was not "reigning over Peter (by correcting him)".

Secondly, it was because Peter was in ANTIOCH, which was Paul's "home court".

Acts 11:26 (AKJV/PCE)​
(11:26) And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.
The disciples in Jerusalem were called Jews.

Probably because the MAD playbook doesn't have it all figured out and needs to keep adjusting their perspective upon further study.
To be fair, everyone should do that.
It's not as though MAD doesn't have any good points, but they do go a bit too far out in left field at times and try to force things to fit their narrative.
But heck, most doctrinal stances do the same at times.
That's why it's always good to share perspectives because something may pop up that you haven't considered before.

Not the Cornelius types. He nor his family were NEVER called Jews, even though he was in Peter's territory. The Ethiopian eunuch was never called a Jew. I don't think any of the Samaritans that believed and we're prayed for by Peter ever became Jews or were called Jews, yet they were in his territory.

So this shows what @Tambora was talking about--that you
do go a bit too far out in left field at times and try to force things to fit [your] narrative.
It certainly doesn't say the Jewish disciples were never called Christians in Jerusalem, yet you have used the silence of the scriptures to try to prove they weren't. You should probably stop doing that, as it makes people think your whole doctrine is faulty, despite the fact that:
It's not as though MAD doesn't have any good points,

Try to focus on the good, and scripturally supported, points instead of these odd ones.

Peter's Gospel is the Gospel of the Kingdom, not the Gospel of the Revelation of the Mystery (Grace). You can't be saved by the Gospel of the Kingdom. We are saved by Grace, not by repentance and water baptism.
