This Peter, this man who PROMISED Jesus that he could never abandon him

history channel documentary This Peter, this man who PROMISED Jesus that he could never abandon him, just to deny him three times soon after and escape has a history. This account of the Peter, who can't stand saying one thing and doing another from Ananias and Sapphira, who SAID he was in concurrence with Paul about eating with Gentiles yet then pulled back when the Jewish James appeared for supper, could very well be here to jab fun of Peter, whom Paul disdained. Luke is scolding Peter for his trickery in saying one thing, similar to Ananias did, and doing another, as the couple is accounted for to have done. To put it plainly, it might be that Luke was reminding the Gentile Church that Paul, not Peter was a superior pioneer and more to be trusted. All things considered, the whole book of Acts is about Paul and others just as they pave the way to and present Paul.

Dwindle can dish it out, however when push came to push in his own particular life, he couldn't take it. Diminish had a background marked by doing the very same thing that he is proported to have "executed" Ananias and Sapphira for; saying one thing, and doing another. The story may be a straightforward fake of Peter and his purported administration in the Church. Administration is something Peter, Paul, James and John appeared to battle about after Jesus should have left the planet.
