Getting to Know Peter NKJV

Matthew 26:51-56 And suddenly, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword, struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.

But Jesus said to him, "Put your sword in its place, for all who take the sword will perish by the sword.

"Or do you not think that I cannot now pray to My Father, and He will provide Me with more than twelve legions of angels?

"How then could the Scriptures be fulfilled, that it must happen thus?"

In that hour Jesus said to the multitudes, "Have you come out, as against a robber, with swords and clubs to take Me? I sat daily with you, teaching in the temple, and you did not seize Me.

"But all this was done that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled." Then all the disciples forsook Him and fled.

Matthew 26:58 But Peter followed Him at a distance to the high priest's courtyard. And he went in and sat with the servants to see the end.

Matthew 26:69-75 Now Peter sat outside in the courtyard. And a servant girl came to him, saying, "You also were with Jesus of Galilee."

But he denied it before them all, saying, "I do not know what you are saying."

And he had gone out to the gateway, another girl saw him and said to those who were there, 'This fellow also was with Jesus of Nazareth."

But again he denied with an oath, "I do not know the Man!"

And a little latter those who stood  by came up and said to Peter, "Surely you also are one of them, for your speech betrays you."

Then he began to curse and swear, saying, "I do not know the Man!" immediately a rooster crowed.

And Peter remembered the word of Jesus who had said to him, "Before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times." So he went out and wept bitterly.

Mark 14:66-72 Now as Peter was below in the courtyards, one of the servant girls of the high priest came.

And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked at him and said, "You also were with Jesus of Nazareth."

But He denied it, saying, "I neither know or understand what you are saying." And he went out on the porch, and a rooster crowed.

And the servant girl saw him again, and began to say to those who stood by "this is one of them."

But he denied it again. And a little latter those who stood by said to Peter again, "Surely you are one of them; for you are a Galilean, and your speech shows it."

Then he began to curse and swear, "I do not know this Man of whom you speak!"

A second time the rooster crowed. Then Peter called to mind the word that Jesus had said to him, "Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times."

Luke 9:18-22 And it happened, as He was alone praying, that His disciples joined Him, and He asked them, saying, "Who do the crowds say that I am?"

So they answered and said, "John  the Baptist, but some say Elijah; and others say that one of the old prophets has risen again."

He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Peter answered and said, "The Christ of God."

And He strictly warned and commanded them to tell this to no one,

saying, 'The Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised the third day."

Mark 16:2-8 Very early in the morning, on the first day of the week,they came to the tomb when the sun had risen.

and they said among themselves, "Who will roll away the stone from the door of the tomb for us?"

But when they looked up, they saw that the stone had been rolled away-- for it was very large.

And entering the tomb, they saw a young man clothed in a  long white robe sitting on the right side; and they were alarmed.

But he said to them, "Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He is risen! He is not here, See the place where they laid Him.

"But go, tell the disciples-- and Peter-- that he is going before you into Galilee; there you will see Him, as He said to you."

So they went out quickly and fled from the tomb, for they trembled and were amazed. And they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.
