Is your question "was Peter delerious when he denied the Lord Jesus? No Peter was not crazy! Peter was one of the diciples who knew the Lord Jesus for who he was before he denied him. In Matt.16:16 we read "Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ the Son of the living God". Jesus answered "Blessed art thou Simon Bar Jona for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my father who is in heaven". From this verse we know that Peter knew the Lord Jesus Christ and loved him very much before calvary. He was the disciple who was ready to die with Christ. He was the one who took the sword to those who came to take Jesus to the cross. We might ask what happened to Peter? He rejected the Lord Jesus 3 times as Jesus predicted. After Jesus was take away to the judgement hall think of what must have been going through the mind of Peter. Great fear as he saw his friend taken and falsely accused, mocked and tortured. And yet, he followed afar off; other disciples were not there at all. Peter was afraid of "man"and tried to fit in with the crowd even to the point of cursing and swearing. However, he could not hide his connection to the Man of calvary as the maid said "your speech betrays you". Peter was not a coward, he was a frightened man. We find in Luke 22:61-61 That after Peter had denied the Lord 3 times that "the Lord turned and looked upon Peter...""then Peter went out and wept bitterly" Peter was a man who knew Christ as the Son of God and yet in a time of weakness denied him. However, we see the affect of the Savior's look on him, he repented totally and was forgiven as we see in later chapters. Peter was the man who was given the keys of the kingdom and in the end he gave his life for the Savior whom he love. He was crucified upside down. His example gives hope to all Christians who at times are unfaithful to Christ. The Lord Jesus Christ is faithful! praise his name! Robert Nicholson |

Greetings Robert Nicholson and welocme back, The word is deilos, Greek for cowardly ... I am proving jcsav reads into the Bible, once again. I think the other 10 may have been deilos (cowardly), since they ran away (Matt 26:56) and didn't return. Searcher |

They all acted according to God's will and the fulfillment of Scripture. John 18:8 ".......If therefore ye seek me, Let these go their way." It was Peter who made an oath. It was Peter who's reject of Jesus was manifested. That is not to say the other 10, MAY HAVE BEEN cowardly. But that is best left to God. To God be the Glory! | ||||||
