1 day ago · Peter’s denial of Jesus is one of the Bible’s most relatable moments. Sure, he screwed up, but this didn’t mark the end of his journey. Rather than allowing his mistake to define him, Peter experienced redemption, and Jesus restored him (John 21:15-17). His story shows us we can always bounce back from our worst moments, along with God ...

The Apostle Peter may have been the most outspoken of the twelve apostles in Jesus’ ministry on earth. He certainly became one of the boldest witnesses for the faith. His beginnings were certainly humble in origin. He was born about 1 B.C. and died sometime around A.D. 67. Peter was originally named Simon. Jesus was the One Who changed Peter’s name...
As mentioned earlier, Peter was among the first disciples called by Jesus and he was frequently their spokesman – for good or bad. One thing that he is credited with is the special insight that he had concerning Jesus’ identity. Peter was the first to call Jesus the Son of the Living God – the Messiah (Mark 8:29, Luke 9:20, Matt. 16:16-17). When Je...
A disciple means a “follower of” and that is what most Christians actually are today. An apostle is “one sent forth” in the sense of sent forth by God to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ. The biblical definition of an apostle and the only one’s that are called apostles in the New Testament had to be either with Jesus during His earthly ministry ...
There is extremely reliable evidence through church tradition and early church historians that the Gospel of Markis actually the gospel of Peter. Peter is said to have dictated his discipleship with Jesus to John Mark, who was a companion of his for many of the later years of his life. If you read the Gospel of Mark you can see the extremely fine d...
In the days leading up to Peter’s death, almost all of the apostles had been martyred. Did Jesus actually predict Peter’s death by crucifixion when He said that “when you are old you will stretch out your hands, and another will dress you and take you where you do not want to go” (John 21:18-19)? The church historian Tertullian, Origen, and Eusebiu...
- Mark likely wrote his gospel based on Peter’s account of Jesus’ ministry. Most scholars today understand Mark’s gospel to be the first written among the four accounts.
- Peter was the first among Jesus’ disciples to identify Him as the Messiah (Matt. 16:16; Mark 8:29; Luke 9:20). This is the occasion where Jesus designates Simon as “the rock” (Peter).
- Peter was also among the first two Apostles to witness the empty tomb (Luke 24:1–12; John 20:1–10). Like Peter’s recognition of Jesus as Messiah, this event also demonstrates the inability to grasp the full significance of Christ’s death and resurrection apart from Jesus’ own teaching and the work of the Holy Spirit.
- Peter is the first among the Twelve to witness and confirm the conversion of the gentiles in Luke’s second volume, the Acts of the Apostles. This happens in an ironic fashion that seems to echo Peter’s initial resistance to Jesus’ death and resurrection message, as well as his behavior at Christ’s crucifixion.
It was a night of turmoil and uncertainty. As Jesus faced betrayal and arrest, Peter, a loyal disciple, found himself in a situation that tested his resolve. When asked if he knew Jesus, Peter said, 'I don't know the man.'. As the rooster crowed, Peter saw Jesus, and the weight of his denial hit him.

Apr 8, 2021 · The first argument in my case against Owen is the lack of analogy between Owen’s view of the new heavens and earth in verse 13 and the whole thrust and movement of Peter’s argument in 2 Peter 3. As I have documented in my End Times Made Simple, Peter’s eschatological teaching in this passage is broadly speaking built around three worlds divided by two destructions.

Apr 29, 2021 · Peter first shows up in Matthew 4:18-20, when Jesus calls him to be one of His first disciples. Jesus visits Peter’s home and heals his mother-in-law in Matthew 8:14-15. Peter officially becomes one of the 12 apostles in Matthew 10:1-2. Peter finally starts talking in Matthew 14:28-30, only to yell when he begins drowning.
