If u deny me I will deny you before my father... Didn't peter denied Jesus Christ God resurrected king 👑 ? One time.or.two or three... Yet You all.make.a.lot.of excuses.

If u deny me before people I will deny you before my father It applies to everyone except of course to peter who swore he wouldn't then never fed the 🐑. Is peter in heaven no he is not 🚫 He denied the true gospel to the Jews of non circumsicion and hence didn't proclaim true gospel of Christ. Done for now is true thus and no personal attack was made on you
I was paralyzed in bed last year and I heard Jesus say out loud to me - If you believe in me get up and walk💜🕊💜 I got up and not only walked but went for a walk outside. Praise God!!!!! GOD IS ALWAYS WORKING!!!! ✌💜🕊🙏
He never stopped being a healer. Those who need healing, if they would diligently seek it and Him, will get healing. Sometimes we have to latch onto a promise or a story in God's Word and not let go, not take no for an answer, and be relentless. It's like rock climbing. Sometimes you get discouraged and din't believe, sometimes you fall, sometimes you get tired, sometimes you want to do something else, sometimes you struggle tremendously to get to the top, but you have to keep trying. Get to the top at all costs. Get your healing.
After listing all the types of people who will not inherit the Kingdom of God, in 1st Corinthians chapter 6, Paul went on to write: "Some of you were just like that, but now you have been washed clean and sanctified." The key was word was: "Were," indicating that those who had previously engaged in such practices considered unrighteousness by God, had since renounced them, and were now living in a manner God wanted them to, much like Paul had renounced his former life course as a persecuter of Christianity. Had they'd continued in such practices, they wouldn't have been washed clean and sanctified. And that's the key, we are forgiven of our sins, and therefore not defined by them, as long as we discontinue living in such a way that God condemns. Granted we all make mistakes, sometimes serious ones, but there's a big difference in making a mistake, and deliberately choosing to live in a manner that is unapproved by God, especially after knowing what God commends and what he condemns. Its one thing to know something is either right or wrong, but its quite different to put into practice what I right, and to stop doing what we know to be wrong. And until a person decides to give up a wrong course, and start living a righteous course, showing it by what they do, they're not a true Follower of Christ. Jesus even said as much at John 8:31: "If you obey my teachings you are really my disciples." It's not just merely claiming to be Christian, you have to demonstrate it in how you live your life. the Disciple James put it this way: "Faith, if not backed up with action, is dead... so you see we are judged righteous by what we do and not by faith alone." - James chapter 2. Jesus said it quite plainly in his famous Sermon on the Mount: "Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws." - Mathew 7:21-23.
Yes. But keep in mind that he left everything for the Lord and in the end crucified upside down. So do not be complacent if you think youre sinful and will get Gods favor in return. One has to prove worthy too
Peters story just reminds me that we were created for God's purpose, not our own. We were all created to fulfill the will of God in our lives, just like Peter was. Hallelujah Praise you God for your love, grace and mercy on us.
Lord Jesus, open our eyes, heart and mind to understand your words of wisdom, give us your strength, wisdom and faith to preach thy word of truth. In Jesus’ name.
Peter is my favorite in the whole Bible because he was, to be honest, "feral and unhinged" lol.. like that weird ADHD kid in your friend group that you never quite know what they're going to do but you know they have good intentions, but probably miss the mark a little bit, and sometimes cuss and apologize for it in the same breath..... and Jesus knew that about Peter before Peter did and said, "you know what I need? A misfit one. To keep us on our toes." And that's me too 😭😅
That’s me as well, Peter was the story that brought me back to wanting to learn more about the Bible because I resonated so much with him.. from the anger to the maturity in the end.
Brother your videos always bring me to tears… I’ve been a Christian all my life, but you bring the Bible to life, in this old sinner saved by grace. ❤️✝️😎

Peter was a fisherman and "rough around the edges" when he met Jesus. It's awesome that Peter wrote his epistles so eloquently. Thank you for putting this video about one of my favorite saints out there. Can't wait to see part 2.
Peter hypocrisy became intolerable through the years and went the wrong way. Sure peter is the pope but of Satan. He denied Jesus 3.tiems and before he did this God told him if u deny me here I will deny you ..
@@nbenefiel NOPE! Where do you get your inaccurate information? First Peter was written sometime between AD 62 and 64 while Paul was under house arrest from AD 60-62. Neither refer to each other being in Rome, only Silvanus and Mark were his companions. These facts suggest 1st Peter was written sometime after AD 62. Peter was writing during the suffering and persecution of Christians under Nero's reign. The persecutions arose in Rome and was spreading to Asia Minor. 1st Peter was written to encourage suffering believers to stand firm in Christ in the midst of persecution. He reminded them that we Christians are only sojourners in this world and our home is in heaven. Peter emphasizes that suffering is normal for believers because we are temporary residents in this world. 1st Peter is a beautiful encouraging epistle to believers and still to this day gives us hope to look forward to as we find no justice in this world for the persecution we face.
@@Leokat334 The gospel of Peter is a Gnostic gospel, written sometime in the mid second century, long, long after the apostle Peter was dead. It contains that bizarre story of the cross that expanded, floated out of the tomb and actually spoke. It was also highly antisemitic. The gnostic gospels were pretty far out but Peter was about as weird as it got. There was a reason the gnostic gospels were not included in the canonical New Testament, not the least being that they were not written until well after the NT was compiled..
Peter, the man, is not the rock the Church’s foundation is built on. It was Peter’s FAITH in and recognition of Jesus Christ as being God’s Son, The Messiah, that showed Peter’s understanding of Who the real Rock is. (He could only know that truth because God revealed it to him.) Jesus only is The Rock on which His Church is built. He is the chief cornerstone.
@@LeeB5 YES YES!! THANK YOU! I WAS JUST GETTING READY TO WRITE THE SAME THING. THE NARRATOR KEPT REFERING TO PETER AS THE CHIEF CORNERSTONE BUT WE ALL KNOW THAT ONLY JESUS IS AND THE BIBLE CLEARLY TELLS US THIS. JESUS CALLED HIN CEPHAS WHICH MEANS "STONE" NOT ROCK THAT HE WOULD BUILD HIS CHURCH ON. JESUS IS OUR ROCK! SCRIPTURE IS CLEAR ABOUT THAT TOO!
@@sjfanning7711 Jesus did not say “YOU are the rock I will build my Church on…” He said “You are Peter, and on this rock(meaning Peter’s proclamation of Jesus being THE Son of God) will I build my Church…” 💕

@Russel Woods Actually it is said that Peter requested to be crucified upside down because he felt that he was too unworthy to be crucified like Jesus 🥹
He may have denied Christ three times before the rooster crowed , but our lord new his plans for him before he was formed in the womb , and he ended up being one of the most known disciples and his works still stand today , thank you my lord and saviour yeshua the Christos
Immediately before his denials were predicted, Peter was told, “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan demanded to have you, that he might sift you like wheat, but I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail; and when you have turned again [after the denials], strengthen your brethren” (Luke 22:31-32). It was Peter who Christ prayed would have faith that would not fail and that would be a guide for the others; and his prayer, being perfectly efficacious, was sure to be fulfilled. Two important things were told the apostle. “Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven” (Matt. 16:19). Here Peter was singled out for the authority that provides for the forgiveness of sins and the making of disciplinary rules. Later the apostles as a whole would be given similar power [Matt.18:18], but here Peter received it in a special sense. Peter alone was promised something else also: “I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven” (Matt. 16:19). In ancient times, keys were the hallmark of authority. A walled city might have one great gate; and that gate had one great lock, worked by one great key. To be given the key to the city-an honor that exists even today, though its import is lost-meant to be given free access to and authority over the city. The city to which Peter was given the keys was the heavenly city itself. This symbolism for authority is used elsewhere in the Bible (Isa. 22:22, Rev. 1:18). Finally, after the Resurrection, Jesus appeared to his disciples and asked Peter three times, “Do you love me?” (John 21:15-17). In repentance for his threefold denial, Peter gave a threefold affirmation of love. Then Christ, the Good Shepherd (John 10:11, 14), gave Peter the authority he earlier had promised: “Feed my sheep” (John 21:17).
@agoogoomuck he was martyred & crucified upside-down because he didn't see himself worthy to be crucified the same way as Christ, & it was the Roman Nero who had him killed. He was a ruthless, vicious killer. Btw, I don't need Google.🙂
Amazing retelling of St Peter's story for all Christians on how to become a truthfull and committed follower of our Lord like St Peter as we journey to our own death onto the promised kingdom to meet with the Key Keeper of Heaven the one and only St Peter.. Beautiful summary of the gospel contents focussed on Peter. God bless you who puts together and narrates the whole story. Great work bro...
Me too! I was looking for the story’s of Jesus’ disciples that weren’t 3 hours long and these are perfect to get a better and quick understanding. Peace!
Yes! Peter! Jesus complimented him for his great rock solid faith! Jesus the Rock of our salvation…..said in front of all: “and upon THIS rock I will build my church!” What a great honor for Peter to hear Jesus call him a rock when Peter knew Jesus was THE ROCK!
BOTH were Rocks. At their first meeting, Christ told Simon that his name would thereafter be Peter, which translates as “Rock” (John 1:42). Christ was not given to meaningless gestures, and neither were the Jews when it came to names. Giving a new name meant that the status of the person was changed, as when Abram’s name was changed to Abraham (Gen.17:5), Jacob’s to Israel (Gen. 32:28), Eliakim’s to Joakim (2 Kgs. 23:34) When he first saw Simon, “Jesus looked at him, and said, ‘So you are Simon the son of John? You shall be called Cephas (which means Peter)’” (John 1:42). The word Cephas is merely the transliteration of the Aramaic Kepha into Greek. “You are Peter, and on this rock I will build my Church” (Matt. 16:18). From the grammatical point of view, the phrase “this rock” must relate back to the closest noun. Peter’s profession of faith (“You are the Christ, the Son of the living God”) is two verses earlier, while his name, a proper noun, is in the immediately preceding clause. Peter is the foundation of the Church. Christ is naturally the principal and, since he will be returning to heaven, the invisible foundation of the Church that he will establish; but Peter is named by him as the secondary and, because he and his successors will remain on earth, the visible foundation. Peter can be a foundation only because Christ is the cornerstone. Note that Christ did not speak to the disciples in Greek. He spoke Aramaic, the common language of Palestine at that time. In that language the word for rock is kepha, which is what Jesus called him in everyday speech (note that in John 1:42 he was told, “You will be called Cephas“). What Jesus said in Matthew 16:18 was: “You are Kepha, and upon this kepha I will build my Church.” When Matthew’s Gospel was translated from the original Aramaic to Greek, there arose a problem which did not confront the evangelist when he first composed his account of Christ’s life. In Aramaic the word kepha has the same ending whether it refers to a rock or is used as a man’s name. In Greek, though, the word for rock, petra, is feminine in gender. The translator could use it for the second appearance of kepha in the sentence, but not for the first because it would be inappropriate to give a man a feminine name. So he put a masculine ending on it, and hence Peter became Petros. In English, like Aramaic, there is no problem with endings; so an English rendition could read: “You are Rock, and upon this rock I will build my church.” “The Lord says to Peter: ‘I say to you,’ he says, ‘that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church.’ . . . On him [Peter] he builds the Church, and to him he gives the command to feed the sheep [John 21:17], and although he assigns a like power to all the apostles, yet he founded a single chair [cathedra], and he established by his own authority a source and an intrinsic reason for that unity. Indeed, the others were that also which Peter was [i.e., apostles], but a primacy is given to Peter, whereby it is made clear that there is but one Church and one chair. So too, all [the apostles] are shepherds, and the flock is shown to be one, fed by all the apostles in single-minded accord. If someone does not hold fast to this unity of Peter, can he imagine that he still holds the faith? If he should desert the chair of Peter upon whom the Church was built, can he still be confident that he is in the Church?”-St. Cyprian of Carthage (The Unity of the Catholic Church 4; 1st edition [A.D. 251]
PETER WAS MARTYRED AS A FOLLOWER OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST.WHO TOOK OVER PETER'S PLACE AS LEADER OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH?!?!?WHO?!??!?THE BIBLE DOESN'T SAY WHO IS PETER'S SUCCESSOR OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH 😳 AFTER HE WAS MARTYRED!

They had previously possessed the meanings of “small stone” and “large rock” in some early Greek poetry, but by the first century this distinction was gone, as Protestant Bible scholars admit (see D. A. Carson’s remarks on this passage in the Expositor’s Bible Commentary [Grand Rapids: Zondervan Books]). Two important things were told the apostle. “Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven” (Matt. 16:19).

Yes, Christ gives Simon the new name of Peter which means Rock. Christ told Simon that his name would thereafter be Peter, which translates as “Rock” (John 1:42). Albert Barnes Nineteenth-Century Presbyterian “The meaning of this phrase may be thus expressed: ‘Thou, in saying that I am the Son of God, hast called me by a name expressive of my true character. I, also, have given to thee a name expressive of your character. I have called you Peter, a rock. . . . I see that you are worthy of the name and will be a distinguished support of my religion” [Barnes’ Notes on the New Testament, 170]. John Broadus Nineteenth-Century Calvinistic Baptist “As Peter means rock, the natural interpretation is that ‘upon this rock’ means upon thee. . . . It is an even more far-fetched and harsh play upon words if we understand the rock to be Christ and a very feeble and almost unmeaning play upon words if the rock is Peter’s confession” [Commentary on the Gospel of Matthew, 356]. Craig L. Blomberg Contemporary Baptist “The expression ‘this rock’ almost certainly refers to Peter, following immediately after his name, just as the words following ‘the Christ’ in verse 16 applied to Jesus. The play on words in the Greek between Peter’s name (Petros) and the word ‘rock’ (petra) makes sense only if Peter is the Rock and if Jesus is about to explain the significance of this identification” [New American Commentary: Matthew, 22:252]. J. Knox Chamblin Contemporary Presbyterian “By the words ‘this rock’ Jesus means not himself, nor his teaching, nor God the Father, nor Peter’s confession, but Peter himself. The phrase is immediately preceded by a direct and emphatic reference to Peter. As Jesus identifies himself as the builder, the rock on which he builds is most naturally understood as someone (or something) other than Jesus himself” [“Matthew” in Evangelical Commentary on the Bible, 742]. R. T. France Contemporary Anglican “The word-play, and the whole structure of the passage, demands that this verse is every bit as much Jesus’ declaration about Peter as verse 16 was Peter’s declaration about Jesus. Of course it is on the basis of Peter’s confession that Jesus declares his role as the Church’s foundation, but it is to Peter, not his confession, that the rock metaphor is applied” (Gospel According to Matthew, 254). Herman Ridderbos Contemporary Dutch Reformed “It is well known that the Greek word petra translated ‘rock’ here is different from the proper name Peter. The slight difference between them has no special importance, however. The most likely explanation for the change from petros (‘Peter’) to petra is that petra was the normal word for ‘rock.’ . . . There is no good reason to think that Jesus switched from petros to petra to show that he was not speaking of the man Peter but of his confession as the foundation of the Church. The words ‘on this rock [petra]’ indeed refer to Peter” [Bible Student’s Commentary: Matthew, 303]. Donald Hagner Contemporary Evangelical “The frequent attempts that have been made, largely in the past, to deny [that Peter is the rock] in favor of the view that the confession itself is the rock . . . seem to be largely motivated by Protestant prejudice against a passage that is used by the Roman Catholics to justify the papacy” (Word Biblical Commentary 33b:470). @agoogoomuck
John Calvin was just a 16th-century heretic. St. Peter was the Rock Christ built His Church on. Universally recognized in early Christianity. “The Lord says to Peter: ‘I say to you,’ he says, ‘that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church.’ . . . On him [Peter] he builds the Church, and to him he gives the command to feed the sheep [John 21:17], and although he assigns a like power to all the apostles, yet he founded a single chair [cathedra], and he established by his own authority a source and an intrinsic reason for that unity. Indeed, the others were that also which Peter was [i.e., apostles], but a primacy is given to Peter, whereby it is made clear that there is but one Church and one chair.

If he [should] desert the chair of Peter upon whom the Church was built, can he still be confident that he is in the Church?”-St. Cyprian of Carthage (The Unity of the Catholic Church 4; 1st edition [A.D. 251] @agoogoomuck
With all do respect brother I say, only Jesus is the “Corner stone, Our firm foundation”, into where we can stand firm. Our brother Peter was a huge blessing but like all of us, he was a sinner need of repentance. Thank you for reading, Jesus is coming soon repent and may our lamps be filled with oil. 🤍🕊
He was a human and obviously every human is a sinner. But it doesn't mean that You and Peter and the apostles are same!!! How could you say that??? Jesus changed his name to Cephas which literally means rock. Why would he change his name to Peter if he didn't mean him. Why are you people bringing the corner stone with this. The church was jesus himself. And If you still think Peter and you are same, I'll tell u something, jesus entrusted peter with his Lambs, US!!!! He left his lambs with him. Do you think he's just a random sinner ??? Why you people always ready to degrade the apostles and saints????
Have you done a part two, yet? I have always enjoyed the story of Peter, and I would like to hear more. Peter was a character, oftentimes impulsive, he may not even displayed the type of thinking that Christ was trying to instill in him, but I think it's clear, based on his actions overall, that his heart was always in the right place.
Deuteronomy 4:2 “Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.” King James Version (KJV)
The 12 tribes of Israel are constellations of stars. None have ever been down here on planet Earth. The sons of Jacob (IU piter) begins the year with Reuben/Aquarius (January) and Zebulun/Capricorn brings us back to December. The rock that begat thee, in Deuteronomy 32.18, went on to become Saint Peter.
Thank you Lord God Almighty for everything and I claimed healing and victory breakthrough today in Jesus Mighty Name Savior of our sins and Lord of our lives. Amen 🙏🙏🙏 Amen ❤❤❤ I love you Lord and I lift my voice to worship you my soul.
There has been nothing in this life for me but my belief in God the Father and the true gift He gave us…Yeshua…my heart is so moved that tears of true joy come to me…I look forward to the Sabbath to study and learn something more…I am so greatfull I discovered the Torah …the first 5 books of the Word woke me up…and Blessing people is a wonderful gift to give to everyone I meet, even if it is just in passing! Prayer is truly giving thanks ❤❤❤
Revelation 22:19 “And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.” (KJV)
I was sick in bed this year l also don't know what was saving me .... As much l am trying to listen to God's voice l am realising God's will always plays out ..... With all the editions the of the Bible you get to understand you never know the truth.... And one can just be moving around aimlessly. The bible tells us that we receive the gift of the holy Spirit... Yet sometimes one notices they are too many things that don't make sense .
“Upon this rock, I will build my Church.” As Simon’s heart is being transformed from hardened to the heart of God, Simon is transformed into Peter. This is a journey we all will go through.
@@blairwilliamson5554And THE ROCK THAT FOLLOWED THEM IN THE WILDERNESS IN THE OT WAS CHRIST...CHRIST IS THE ROCK, PETER THE STONE, PLEASE CHECK THE EXACT ORIGINAL GREEK WORDS NOT WHAT YOU WANT TO BELIEVE...CHRIST IS THE ROCK GOD ALMIGHTY
only comment i have is, when Jesus and Peter returned to the boat, Jesus spoke peace into existence, “Peace! Be still!” and the storm faded. it didn’t pass on its own
I always ask myself about the young man whose ear Peter had cut.What did he make of Jesus after Jesus Himself had healed him? The guy was so lucky to come across Jesus.After experiencing such a miracle,that could have been a turning point for him.The same applies to Barabbas, being the first person to be saved by Christ.He should have thought otherwise.That is my opinion.Please help me.
Everyone needs to look at the Greek text about the “Rock”. The word for Peter (Petros) means a small stone. When Jesus says on this ROCK, He uses pertra which means huge boulder or cliff. It only makes sense the Jesus was referring to himself.
Very true. Great video, but Jesus is the cornerstone not Peter. Peter had a leadership role in growing the gospel message, but Jesus and the truth that He is the Christ is the rock that He will build the Church on.
Jesus spoke Aramaic, not Greek, and he used the word Cephas/Kephas which means Rock. Matt 16: 13-19. To Simon, Jesus says, "and you are Rock and on this Rock, I will build My Church and the gates of hell will not prevail. I give you the Keys to the kingdom. Whatever You bind on earth will be bound in Heaven and whatever you loose on earth will be loose in Heaven." Jesus wasn't talking to himself but to Peter.
So John saw his cousin Jesus coming toward him and he said behold the Lamb of God. About a month ago Jesus told me in a dream to read first Peter so I'm watching and hoping you put all of the Gospel in even if it's paraphrased a little.
Wonderfully put together so far. Dr. Mike Heiser suggests that the rock is the mountain they are likely on, given their location and terrain in that area. In addition, he shared that the theological relation to that specific location to the "gates of hades" is also significant and curious. While having elements of the truth, the four suggested here do have their flaws as pointed out. Probably easy to find a Heiser lecture around somewhere regarding this specific topic. Thanks again for sharing.
On this Rock! That Christ is The Son of God, is what Christ will his church upon. Upon CHRIST himself The Rock of our salvation. The chief corner stone.
Hey man! Wow, this is great. I can imagine the amount of time, attention, and energy put into this video, and channel by extension. Lord be with you and your platform to glorify the Christ with sound doctrine and genuine creativity and passion!

It applies to everyone except of course to peter who swore he wouldn't then never fed the 🐑.

He denied the true gospel to the Jews of non circumsicion and hence didn't proclaim true gospel of Christ.

I was paralyzed in bed last year and I heard Jesus say out loud to me - If you believe in me get up and walk💜🕊💜 I got up and not only walked but went for a walk outside. Praise God!!!!! GOD IS ALWAYS WORKING!!!! ✌💜🕊🙏
Praise God 🙌
Halleluyah
He never stopped being a healer. Those who need healing, if they would diligently seek it and Him, will get healing. Sometimes we have to latch onto a promise or a story in God's Word and not let go, not take no for an answer, and be relentless. It's like rock climbing. Sometimes you get discouraged and din't believe, sometimes you fall, sometimes you get tired, sometimes you want to do something else, sometimes you struggle tremendously to get to the top, but you have to keep trying. Get to the top at all costs. Get your healing.
Praise the Lord hallelujah hallelujah praise the Lord amen 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
PRAISE GOD & THANK*YOU JESUS !!! AMEN 🙏
Peter's story is a wonderful reminder that we are not defined by our sins.
@Your Words Are Your Wand. Get some professional help
After listing all the types of people who will not inherit the Kingdom of God, in 1st Corinthians chapter 6, Paul went on to write: "Some of you were just like that, but now you have been washed clean and sanctified."
The key was word was: "Were," indicating that those who had previously engaged in such practices considered unrighteousness by God, had since renounced them, and were now living in a manner God wanted them to, much like Paul had renounced his former life course as a persecuter of Christianity. Had they'd continued in such practices, they wouldn't have been washed clean and sanctified.
And that's the key, we are forgiven of our sins, and therefore not defined by them, as long as we discontinue living in such a way that God condemns. Granted we all make mistakes, sometimes serious ones, but there's a big difference in making a mistake, and deliberately choosing to live in a manner that is unapproved by God, especially after knowing what God commends and what he condemns.
Its one thing to know something is either right or wrong, but its quite different to put into practice what I right, and to stop doing what we know to be wrong. And until a person decides to give up a wrong course, and start living a righteous course, showing it by what they do, they're not a true Follower of Christ. Jesus even said as much at John 8:31: "If you obey my teachings you are really my disciples."
It's not just merely claiming to be Christian, you have to demonstrate it in how you live your life. the Disciple James put it this way:
"Faith, if not backed up with action, is dead... so you see we are judged righteous by what we do and not by faith alone." - James chapter 2.
Jesus said it quite plainly in his famous Sermon on the Mount:
"Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws." - Mathew 7:21-23.
Yes. But keep in mind that he left everything for the Lord and in the end crucified upside down. So do not be complacent if you think youre sinful and will get Gods favor in return. One has to prove worthy too
@@thecowboy9698, well said , thank you ❣️
@godsgirl797the only sin is to deny we are equal to God? I'm sorry, huh? Scripture please?
Peters story just reminds me that we were created for God's purpose, not our own. We were all created to fulfill the will of God in our lives, just like Peter was. Hallelujah Praise you God for your love, grace and mercy on us.
Lord Jesus, open our eyes, heart and mind to understand your words of wisdom, give us your strength, wisdom and faith to preach thy word of truth.
In Jesus’ name.
Amen.
Simon/ Peter story is a great reminder that our past doesn’t define us nor does it dictate our future
God I pray please turn me from Fisher of anger and unrighteousness to Fisher of men for Your kingdom.
Get in the kingdom first and you’ll see clearly to guide others
Peter is my favorite in the whole Bible because he was, to be honest, "feral and unhinged" lol.. like that weird ADHD kid in your friend group that you never quite know what they're going to do but you know they have good intentions, but probably miss the mark a little bit, and sometimes cuss and apologize for it in the same breath..... and Jesus knew that about Peter before Peter did and said, "you know what I need? A misfit one. To keep us on our toes." And that's me too 😭😅
That’s me as well, Peter was the story that brought me back to wanting to learn more about the Bible because I resonated so much with him.. from the anger to the maturity in the end.
Thank you. Listening to this has brought me closer to Christ 🩷🙏🏻

Peter was a fisherman and "rough around the edges" when he met Jesus. It's awesome that Peter wrote his epistles so eloquently. Thank you for putting this video about one of my favorite saints out there. Can't wait to see part 2.
Peter hypocrisy became intolerable through the years and went the wrong way. Sure peter is the pope but of Satan.
He denied Jesus 3.tiems and before he did this God told him if u deny me here I will deny you ..
Peter did not write this gospel. He was dead over 150 years before its was written.
@@nbenefiel NOPE! Where do you get your inaccurate information? First Peter was written sometime between AD 62 and 64 while Paul was under house arrest from AD 60-62. Neither refer to each other being in Rome, only Silvanus and Mark were his companions. These facts suggest 1st Peter was written sometime after AD 62. Peter was writing during the suffering and persecution of Christians under Nero's reign. The persecutions arose in Rome and was spreading to Asia Minor. 1st Peter was written to encourage suffering believers to stand firm in Christ in the midst of persecution. He reminded them that we Christians are only sojourners in this world and our home is in heaven. Peter emphasizes that suffering is normal for believers because we are temporary residents in this world. 1st Peter is a beautiful encouraging epistle to believers and still to this day gives us hope to look forward to as we find no justice in this world for the persecution we face.
@@Leokat334 The gospel of Peter is a Gnostic gospel, written sometime in the mid second century, long, long after the apostle Peter was dead. It contains that bizarre story of the cross that expanded, floated out of the tomb and actually spoke. It was also highly antisemitic. The gnostic gospels were pretty far out but Peter was about as weird as it got. There was a reason the gnostic gospels were not included in the canonical New Testament, not the least being that they were not written until well after the NT was compiled..
@@Leokat334remove your pride. Peter did not write his gospels

Well come bro 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Bible study is one of my favorite classes so I have a way of bringing the Bible to life with this app thank you 🙏
I love Peter, in certain circles he seems to be put down, Jesus put him in the inner circle that’s all I need to know.
Jesus also said, You are the rock on which I will build my church.
Peter, the man, is not the rock the Church’s foundation is built on. It was Peter’s FAITH in and recognition of Jesus Christ as being God’s Son, The Messiah, that showed Peter’s understanding of Who the real Rock is. (He could only know that truth because God revealed it to him.) Jesus only is The Rock on which His Church is built. He is the chief cornerstone.
@@LeeB5 YES YES!! THANK YOU! I WAS JUST GETTING READY TO WRITE THE SAME THING. THE NARRATOR KEPT REFERING TO PETER AS THE CHIEF CORNERSTONE BUT WE ALL KNOW THAT ONLY JESUS IS AND THE BIBLE CLEARLY TELLS US THIS. JESUS CALLED HIN CEPHAS WHICH MEANS "STONE" NOT ROCK THAT HE WOULD BUILD HIS CHURCH ON. JESUS IS OUR ROCK! SCRIPTURE IS CLEAR ABOUT THAT TOO!
@@sjfanning7711 Jesus did not say “YOU are the rock I will build my Church on…” He said “You are Peter, and on this rock(meaning Peter’s proclamation of Jesus being THE Son of God) will I build my Church…” 💕
@@LeeB5 Depends on which Bible translation you’re using.
My heart is overwhelmed with joy to know of this most beautiful effort to proclaim the Lord's words throughout the world, making the the good news available and accessible to the poor. Thank you to bibleunbound, praise the Lord.

Yes Amen ,he was crucified upside down , truly mind blowing as to why. An incredible message to the body of Christ God bless.
@Russel Woods Actually it is said that Peter requested to be crucified upside down because he felt that he was too unworthy to be crucified like Jesus 🥹
A visit to St. Peter’s tomb in Rome is an experience all believers should share. Why? Because he was a real person, not just a character in the Bible.
They were all real people lol
They were all real people lol
Yeesssssss I love this form of Bible study!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
He may have denied Christ three times before the rooster crowed , but our lord new his plans for him before he was formed in the womb , and he ended up being one of the most known disciples and his works still stand today , thank you my lord and saviour yeshua the Christos
Immediately before his denials were predicted, Peter was told, “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan demanded to have you, that he might sift you like wheat, but I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail; and when you have turned again [after the denials], strengthen your brethren” (Luke 22:31-32). It was Peter who Christ prayed would have faith that would not fail and that would be a guide for the others; and his prayer, being perfectly efficacious, was sure to be fulfilled.
Two important things were told the apostle. “Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven” (Matt. 16:19). Here Peter was singled out for the authority that provides for the forgiveness of sins and the making of disciplinary rules. Later the apostles as a whole would be given similar power [Matt.18:18], but here Peter received it in a special sense.
Peter alone was promised something else also: “I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven” (Matt. 16:19). In ancient times, keys were the hallmark of authority. A walled city might have one great gate; and that gate had one great lock, worked by one great key. To be given the key to the city-an honor that exists even today, though its import is lost-meant to be given free access to and authority over the city. The city to which Peter was given the keys was the heavenly city itself. This symbolism for authority is used elsewhere in the Bible (Isa. 22:22, Rev. 1:18).
Finally, after the Resurrection, Jesus appeared to his disciples and asked Peter three times, “Do you love me?” (John 21:15-17). In repentance for his threefold denial, Peter gave a threefold affirmation of love. Then Christ, the Good Shepherd (John 10:11, 14), gave Peter the authority he earlier had promised: “Feed my sheep” (John 21:17).
i think when he said upon this rock i will build my church...it is the word of God
Jesus was saying Himself
I agree, in a sense. I believe it was the Peter's confession 'You are the Christ. The Son of the Living God.'
If you why do you think he name him rock/cephas????
Powerful! Peter is my favorite apostle.♡
@agoogoomuck he was martyred & crucified upside-down because he didn't see himself worthy to be crucified the same way as Christ, & it was the Roman Nero who had him killed. He was a ruthless, vicious killer. Btw, I don't need Google.🙂
This is really good!!! I think about how Peter must of felt,, and I'm a woman. But have a lot of Peter a Paul,, the Lord is so good!!!
Jesus Christ is ours ultimate healer. He's Merciful and Kind. Its so good to know the Lord. Praise Him everyday!
This video made me cry❤ praise God for Jesus Christ our savior 🙌
Really got the tear flowing with that one. The last 5 min hit hard. Amazing video. Jesus is The Christ. Peter is my brother, Agape and phileo.
Amazing retelling of St Peter's story for all Christians on how to become a truthfull and committed follower of our Lord like St Peter as we journey to our own death onto the promised kingdom to meet with the Key Keeper of Heaven the one and only St Peter.. Beautiful summary of the gospel contents focussed on Peter. God bless you who puts together and narrates the whole story. Great work bro...
This is so relaxing listening to you tell this story after such a long day. Blessings to you 🙏🏼 ✨️
What a blessing for Jesus to say such wonderful words unto Peter in their time together
May God bless you, brother
You guys! I've just found your channel! What a blessing! May God bless everyone involved in this ministry for His glory! ❤❤
Me too! I was looking for the story’s of Jesus’ disciples that weren’t 3 hours long and these are perfect to get a better and quick understanding. Peace!
Yes! Peter! Jesus complimented him for his great rock solid faith! Jesus the Rock of our salvation…..said in front of all: “and upon THIS rock I will build my church!” What a great honor for Peter to hear Jesus call him a rock when Peter knew Jesus was THE ROCK!
BOTH were Rocks. At their first meeting, Christ told Simon that his name would thereafter be Peter, which translates as “Rock” (John 1:42). Christ was not given to meaningless gestures, and neither were the Jews when it came to names. Giving a new name meant that the status of the person was changed, as when Abram’s name was changed to Abraham (Gen.17:5), Jacob’s to Israel (Gen. 32:28), Eliakim’s to Joakim (2 Kgs. 23:34)
When he first saw Simon, “Jesus looked at him, and said, ‘So you are Simon the son of John? You shall be called Cephas (which means Peter)’” (John 1:42). The word Cephas is merely the transliteration of the Aramaic Kepha into Greek. “You are Peter, and on this rock I will build my Church” (Matt. 16:18).
From the grammatical point of view, the phrase “this rock” must relate back to the closest noun. Peter’s profession of faith (“You are the Christ, the Son of the living God”) is two verses earlier, while his name, a proper noun, is in the immediately preceding clause. Peter is the foundation of the Church. Christ is naturally the principal and, since he will be returning to heaven, the invisible foundation of the Church that he will establish; but Peter is named by him as the secondary and, because he and his successors will remain on earth, the visible foundation. Peter can be a foundation only because Christ is the cornerstone.
Note that Christ did not speak to the disciples in Greek. He spoke Aramaic, the common language of Palestine at that time. In that language the word for rock is kepha, which is what Jesus called him in everyday speech (note that in John 1:42 he was told, “You will be called Cephas“). What Jesus said in Matthew 16:18 was: “You are Kepha, and upon this kepha I will build my Church.”
When Matthew’s Gospel was translated from the original Aramaic to Greek, there arose a problem which did not confront the evangelist when he first composed his account of Christ’s life. In Aramaic the word kepha has the same ending whether it refers to a rock or is used as a man’s name. In Greek, though, the word for rock, petra, is feminine in gender. The translator could use it for the second appearance of kepha in the sentence, but not for the first because it would be inappropriate to give a man a feminine name. So he put a masculine ending on it, and hence Peter became Petros. In English, like Aramaic, there is no problem with endings; so an English rendition could read: “You are Rock, and upon this rock I will build my church.”
“The Lord says to Peter: ‘I say to you,’ he says, ‘that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church.’ . . . On him [Peter] he builds the Church, and to him he gives the command to feed the sheep [John 21:17], and although he assigns a like power to all the apostles, yet he founded a single chair [cathedra], and he established by his own authority a source and an intrinsic reason for that unity. Indeed, the others were that also which Peter was [i.e., apostles], but a primacy is given to Peter, whereby it is made clear that there is but one Church and one chair. So too, all [the apostles] are shepherds, and the flock is shown to be one, fed by all the apostles in single-minded accord. If someone does not hold fast to this unity of Peter, can he imagine that he still holds the faith? If he should desert the chair of Peter upon whom the Church was built, can he still be confident that he is in the Church?”-St. Cyprian of Carthage (The Unity of the Catholic Church 4; 1st edition [A.D. 251]
PETER WAS MARTYRED AS A FOLLOWER OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST.WHO TOOK OVER PETER'S PLACE AS LEADER OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH?!?!?WHO?!??!?THE BIBLE DOESN'T SAY WHO IS PETER'S SUCCESSOR OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH 😳 AFTER HE WAS MARTYRED! THE PAPACY IS THE BIGGEST 'HOAX" EVER FOISTED ON THE WORLD.THE BIGGEST HOAX EVER!

In first century Greek the words petros and petra were synonyms. They had previously possessed the meanings of “small stone” and “large rock” in some early Greek poetry, but by the first century this distinction was gone, as Protestant Bible scholars admit (see D. A. Carson’s remarks on this passage in the Expositor’s Bible Commentary [Grand Rapids: Zondervan Books]).
Two important things were told the apostle. “Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven” (Matt. 16:19).

Yes, Christ gives Simon the new name of Peter which means Rock. Christ told Simon that his name would thereafter be Peter, which translates as “Rock” (John 1:42).
Albert Barnes
Nineteenth-Century Presbyterian
“The meaning of this phrase may be thus expressed: ‘Thou, in saying that I am the Son of God, hast called me by a name expressive of my true character. I, also, have given to thee a name expressive of your character. I have called you Peter, a rock. . . . I see that you are worthy of the name and will be a distinguished support of my religion” [Barnes’ Notes on the New Testament, 170].
John Broadus
Nineteenth-Century Calvinistic Baptist
“As Peter means rock, the natural interpretation is that ‘upon this rock’ means upon thee. . . . It is an even more far-fetched and harsh play upon words if we understand the rock to be Christ and a very feeble and almost unmeaning play upon words if the rock is Peter’s confession” [Commentary on the Gospel of Matthew, 356].
Craig L. Blomberg
Contemporary Baptist
“The expression ‘this rock’ almost certainly refers to Peter, following immediately after his name, just as the words following ‘the Christ’ in verse 16 applied to Jesus. The play on words in the Greek between Peter’s name (Petros) and the word ‘rock’ (petra) makes sense only if Peter is the Rock and if Jesus is about to explain the significance of this identification” [New American Commentary: Matthew, 22:252].
J. Knox Chamblin
Contemporary Presbyterian
“By the words ‘this rock’ Jesus means not himself, nor his teaching, nor God the Father, nor Peter’s confession, but Peter himself. The phrase is immediately preceded by a direct and emphatic reference to Peter. As Jesus identifies himself as the builder, the rock on which he builds is most naturally understood as someone (or something) other than Jesus himself” [“Matthew” in Evangelical Commentary on the Bible, 742].
R. T. France
Contemporary Anglican
“The word-play, and the whole structure of the passage, demands that this verse is every bit as much Jesus’ declaration about Peter as verse 16 was Peter’s declaration about Jesus. Of course it is on the basis of Peter’s confession that Jesus declares his role as the Church’s foundation, but it is to Peter, not his confession, that the rock metaphor is applied” (Gospel According to Matthew, 254).
Herman Ridderbos
Contemporary Dutch Reformed
“It is well known that the Greek word petra translated ‘rock’ here is different from the proper name Peter. The slight difference between them has no special importance, however. The most likely explanation for the change from petros (‘Peter’) to petra is that petra was the normal word for ‘rock.’ . . . There is no good reason to think that Jesus switched from petros to petra to show that he was not speaking of the man Peter but of his confession as the foundation of the Church. The words ‘on this rock [petra]’ indeed refer to Peter” [Bible Student’s Commentary: Matthew, 303].
Donald Hagner
Contemporary Evangelical
“The frequent attempts that have been made, largely in the past, to deny [that Peter is the rock] in favor of the view that the confession itself is the rock . . . seem to be largely motivated by Protestant prejudice against a passage that is used by the Roman Catholics to justify the papacy” (Word Biblical Commentary 33b:470).
@agoogoomuck
John Calvin was just a 16th-century heretic. St. Peter was the Rock Christ built His Church on. Universally recognized in early Christianity.
“The Lord says to Peter: ‘I say to you,’ he says, ‘that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church.’ . . . On him [Peter] he builds the Church, and to him he gives the command to feed the sheep [John 21:17], and although he assigns a like power to all the apostles, yet he founded a single chair [cathedra], and he established by his own authority a source and an intrinsic reason for that unity. Indeed, the others were that also which Peter was [i.e., apostles], but a primacy is given to Peter, whereby it is made clear that there is but one Church and one chair. So too, all the apostles are shepherds, and the flock is shown to be one, fed by all the apostles in single-minded accord. If someone does not hold fast to this unity of Peter, can he imagine that he still holds the faith? If he [should] desert the chair of Peter upon whom the Church was built, can he still be confident that he is in the Church?”-St. Cyprian of Carthage (The Unity of the Catholic Church 4; 1st edition [A.D. 251]

With all do respect brother I say, only Jesus is the “Corner stone, Our firm foundation”, into where we can stand firm. Our brother Peter was a huge blessing but like all of us, he was a sinner need of repentance. Thank you for reading, Jesus is coming soon repent and may our lamps be filled with oil. 🤍🕊
I agree, I don't think Jesus would build a church with someone else as cornerstone. Perhaps GOD the father is the cornerstone
He was a human and obviously every human is a sinner. But it doesn't mean that You and Peter and the apostles are same!!! How could you say that??? Jesus changed his name to Cephas which literally means rock. Why would he change his name to Peter if he didn't mean him. Why are you people bringing the corner stone with this. The church was jesus himself. And If you still think Peter and you are same, I'll tell u something, jesus entrusted peter with his Lambs, US!!!! He left his lambs with him. Do you think he's just a random sinner ??? Why you people always ready to degrade the apostles and saints????
Awesome content!! Absolute amazing.
I find the over dramatics distracting though
Praise be to Jesus Christ
Have you done a part two, yet? I have always enjoyed the story of Peter, and I would like to hear more.
Peter was a character, oftentimes impulsive, he may not even displayed the type of thinking that Christ was trying to instill in him, but I think it's clear, based on his actions overall, that his heart was always in the right place.
Almost! As of right now (6.15.23) I am a little over half way through production

And one can just be moving around aimlessly. The bible tells us that we receive the gift of the holy Spirit... Yet sometimes one notices they are too many things that don't make sense .
Thank you so much for sharing with us this video. So enlightening!
Thanks for putting this together BRO in CHRIST 🤜🤛
The ending of your videos are so powerful. 🔥 Bringing their words to life! 💯
Wow this channel is amazing! I am so happy I found it! ✝️💜
The Rock!
Thank you Lord for founding a Church and giving Peter keys to the Kingdom!
Always wonder what Peter’s marriage and family life must have been like.
Thanks for telling the truth between Hebrews and Jewish religion.
Jesus is the rock. The cornerstone
Jesus is "The stone the builders rejected." Cornerstone.
“Upon this rock, I will build my Church.” As Simon’s heart is being transformed from hardened to the heart of God, Simon is transformed into Peter. This is a journey we all will go through.
@@eamonmccourt8251 then peter say unto him repent and Baptist church and send spirit of holy 👻
not the Rock. Christ Jesus is the Cornerstone.
@@blairwilliamson5554And THE ROCK THAT FOLLOWED THEM IN THE WILDERNESS IN THE OT WAS CHRIST...CHRIST IS THE ROCK, PETER THE STONE, PLEASE CHECK THE EXACT ORIGINAL GREEK WORDS NOT WHAT YOU WANT TO BELIEVE...CHRIST IS THE ROCK GOD ALMIGHTY
Yes and amen! ❤📖
Di ko mapigil pumatak ang luha ko sa awit n to,..damang dama ko presensya ni Lord...ilove Lord i love you Jesus
Not one of us is good we all sinned because of Jesus we all can have everlasting life.
this is well put together.
for me to understand, it must be.
God Bless
Your voice over reminds me of a night's tale when he represents the Knight 🎉 made me giggle ❤
only comment i have is, when Jesus and Peter returned to the boat, Jesus spoke peace into existence, “Peace! Be still!” and the storm faded. it didn’t pass on its own
I always ask myself about the young man whose ear Peter had cut.What did he make of Jesus after Jesus Himself had healed him? The guy was so lucky to come across Jesus.After experiencing such a miracle,that could have been a turning point for him.The same applies to Barabbas, being the first person to be saved by Christ.He should have thought otherwise.That is my opinion.Please help me.
This is amazing thanku for teaching me the story of Peter ❤
I had missed this, but because I came across part 2, I had to watch this first, thank you for these educative episodes!
A great story no doubt. Thank you for this!!!❤
I'm unable to support this, but I am able to share it, and you can bet on that. This was way better than I expected!
amen
couldn't stop crying
May the lord help my unbelief
enthusiastic and energetic "thumbs up!"
powerful
Thank you for sharing the truth about Jesus🙏🏼
Everyone needs to look at the Greek text about the “Rock”. The word for Peter (Petros) means a small stone. When Jesus says on this ROCK, He uses pertra which means huge boulder or cliff. It only makes sense the Jesus was referring to himself.
Truth amen! 📖
Very true. Great video, but Jesus is the cornerstone not Peter. Peter had a leadership role in growing the gospel message, but Jesus and the truth that He is the Christ is the rock that He will build the Church on.
Jesus spoke Aramaic, not Greek, and he used the word Cephas/Kephas which means Rock. Matt 16: 13-19. To Simon, Jesus says, "and you are Rock and on this Rock, I will build My Church and the gates of hell will not prevail. I give you the Keys to the kingdom. Whatever You bind on earth will be bound in Heaven and whatever you loose on earth will be loose in Heaven." Jesus wasn't talking to himself but to Peter.
@@bellatordei1 Are you saying Jesus used the same word twice and it was the same word?
@@jeffross8676 Jesus is renaming him the Rock, and on this Rock ( Peter) He will build His Church. St. Paul also referred to Peter as Cephas.
Jesus Delivered me
Not even religious, i just like the stories. ❤
All we need to know is in scripture!
Amen Praise The Lord Jesus ✝️
Amazing video 😁 glory to the most high ❤️
Amazing ❤
Keep on posting such videos
So John saw his cousin Jesus coming toward him and he said behold the Lamb of God. About a month ago Jesus told me in a dream to read first Peter so I'm watching and hoping you put all of the Gospel in even if it's paraphrased a little.
Can you imagine being Jesus's cousin? Growing up together
please hurry up publish part 2. THIS IS NEEDED!!!!
Great job
Are you a bot
@@abiolaakorede1509 no. Why would you even ask and why would it matter?
My honor to St. Mary & st. Peter, respectively, remains unparalleled from among all human beings
Wonderfully put together so far. Dr. Mike Heiser suggests that the rock is the mountain they are likely on, given their location and terrain in that area. In addition, he shared that the theological relation to that specific location to the "gates of hades" is also significant and curious. While having elements of the truth, the four suggested here do have their flaws as pointed out. Probably easy to find a Heiser lecture around somewhere regarding this specific topic. Thanks again for sharing.
thank you!
On this Rock! That Christ is The Son of God, is what Christ will his church upon. Upon CHRIST himself The Rock of our salvation. The chief corner stone.
Consult your nearest Bible. Love it
That was awesome, thank you.
Amen
Thank you for all You do.
15:00 - Upon this rock… Rock = Revelation.
Revelation = The process of the Holy Ghost bearing witness to our hearts of Truth.
Hey man! Wow, this is great. I can imagine the amount of time, attention, and energy put into this video, and channel by extension. Lord be with you and your platform to glorify the Christ with sound doctrine and genuine creativity and passion!
Thank you for your kind words! I am glad you enjoy it.
@@BibleUnbound For sure! Nickel for how you even got started...
Metaphorical nickel, that is 😂
God bless your ministry. Surely God empowers you to do this work.
Many will say lord lord we did miracles in ur name and prophecied yet Jesus will say depart from me I never knew you.
That's actually a very frightening thing when that day comes.
