Why do you think Peter was so emphatic and yet so wrong about denying Jesus?

I think Simon Peter also had the problem of the sadducees-ie; they did not understand the scripture, or the power of it. Jesus was quoting to them prophetic scriptures, and indicating that it shall come to pass in him in relation to them: ie, the shepherd and the sheep of the flock. Peter, like most Gallileans, was too quick to speak out his independent mind. Peter, and indeed all the other disciples, were so natural, and not spiritual, not believing in the fulfilment of that prophesy. I also think Peter was emotionally excited about going back to Galilee- remembering that the Disciples were galileans, besides, it was at galilee that Jesus performed the greatest miracles and exploits. I think it was rather a factor of reaction, not disbelief since they knew the exactitude of Jesus` predictions.

Why do you think Peter was so emphatic and yet so wrong about denying Jesus?

Hello dear friends, Surely if it was you or me in Peter`s shoes we would most likely do the same by that time.You see when akid is with the father, he feels like his father is the strongest man in the whole world and nobody can challenge him.When you study the period Jesus stayed with these disciples, he performed miracles that could persuade anybody to say anything.Peter didn`t know that Jesus was this serious or that he was going to die because he knew that he`s too powerful to challenge all the gentiles, pharisees and are like who wanted to kill him so he said it from the human point of view.

Since it was necessary for Jesus to be crucified, why was it still wrong for Judas to betray Him?

Hello friends, What Judas did was too bad, though it had to happen to him but you cann`t betry you friend like that.But Ihave afeeling that God send this evil spirit and it entered him so as to fulfull the scriptures in the same way God was hardening Pharoah`s heart to resist the children Isreal from proceeding to the promised land.But whatever the case may be Judas did something too evil b`se had been with Jesus for quite agood time.
