on What
Jesus and Peter Said When Peter Proclaimed His Loyalty to Christ
When Simon Peter proclaimed his loyalty to Jesus just
before Jesus Christ’s unjust trial, Peter actually proclaimed his loyalty three
different times. Twice, he proclaimed his loyalty to Jesus prior to Jesus and
His disciples leaving to go to the Mount of Olives (in John and Luke’s Gospel
accounts).
After they had left to go to the mount, Peter again
proclaimed his loyalty to Christ (in Matthew and Mark’s Gospel accounts). The
accounts in Matthew and Mark are nearly identical and happen after Jesus and
His disciples go to the Mount of Olives. And, the accounts in Luke and John take
place prior to Jesus Christ and His disciples going to the Mount of Olives.
