Each one of the disciples were chosen and hand picked by Jesus and some had very key roles that helped fullfill the scripture. For example, Judas played the role as the traitor and turned Jesus over to his death and Matthew was the tax collector that left his booth to follow Jesus, but Peter played a very significant role according to the scriptures. Peter was a very special disciple and from the very moment that Jesus called him he dropped he and his brother drop their nets and immediately followed Jesus(Matthew 4:18-20). Although Peter played the role of a most faithful disciple to Jesus, he had his failures and successes along the way but although his walk may have not been the easiest he played a primary part in the Pentecost and in spreading the word after Jesus had ascended to heaven. In Matthew 16:16-22, we see that Peter is one of the first disciples to realize who Jesus really was as he eloquently proclaims his Lord's true identity as the Christ and also in this !.
passage Peter looks to protect him from the suffering in which Jesus prophesies about. Although Jesus rebuked Peter's words of protection he, in the same breath, also praises him for his realization and tells him that he will be blessed because of it and that promise is kept later on. In Luke 18:26-30, Jesus reminded Peter that following him had its benefits as well as its sacrifices and those words definitely came true. We see that Peter and the other disciples had paid a high price by leaving their homes and jobs all to follow Jesus, by faith. On the last night, Jesus predicts Peter's denial of him in Matthew 26:33-41 and while Peter believes it to be unimaginable, he does what is predicted and denies Jesus three times that same night (Matthew 26:69-75). In Luke 22:62, it sayes that Peter wept bitterly and he did that because he realizes that he denied his Lord and because he had turned away from a dear friend who had loved and taught him for three years.
