Matthew 26:58-75
John 18:15-27
58 But Peter followed him at a distance, right up to the courtyard of the high priest. He entered and sat down with the guards to see the outcome. 59 The chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were looking for false evidence against Jesus so that they could put him to death. 60 But they did not find any, though many false witnesses came forward. Finally two came forward 61 and declared, “This fellow said, ‘I am able to destroy the temple of God and rebuild it in three days.’” 62 Then the high priest stood up and said to Jesus, “Are you not going to answer? What is this testimony that these men are bringing against you?” 63 But Jesus remained silent. The high priest said to him, “I charge you under oath by the living God: Tell us if you are the Messiah, the Son of God.”
64 “You have said so,” Jesus replied. “But I say to all of you, from now on you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven.” 65 Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, “He has spoken blasphemy! Why do we need any more witnesses? Look, now you have heard the blasphemy. 66 What do you think?”
“He is worthy of death,” they answered. 67 Then they spit in his face and struck him with their fists. Others slapped him 68 and said, “Prophesy to us, Messiah. Who hit you?”
69 Now Peter was sitting out in the courtyard, and a servant girl came to him. “You also were with Jesus of Galilee,” she said.
70 But he denied it before them all. “I don’t know what you’re talking about,” he said. 71 Then he went out to the gateway, where another servant girl saw him and said to the people there, “This fellow was with Jesus of Nazareth.” 72 He denied it again, with an oath: “I don’t know the man!” 73 After a little while, those standing there went up to Peter and said, “Surely you are one of them; your accent gives you away.”
74 Then he began to call down curses, and he swore to them, “I don’t know the man!” Immediately a rooster crowed. 75 Then Peter remembered the word Jesus had spoken: “Before the rooster crows, you will disown me three times.” And he went outside and wept bitterly.
John 18:15-27
15 Simon Peter and another disciple were following Jesus. Because this disciple was known to the high priest, he went with Jesus into the high priest’s courtyard, 16 but Peter had to wait outside at the door. The other disciple, who was known to the high priest, came back, spoke to the servant girl on duty there and brought Peter in.
17 “You aren’t one of this man’s disciples too, are you?” she asked Peter. He replied, “I am not.” 18 It was cold, and the servants and officials stood around a fire they had made to keep warm. Peter also was standing with them, warming himself.
19 Meanwhile, the high priest questioned Jesus about his disciples and his teaching. 20 “I have spoken openly to the world,” Jesus replied. “I always taught in synagogues or at the temple, where all the Jews come together. I said nothing in secret. 21 Why question me? Ask those who heard me. Surely they know what I said.” 22 When Jesus said this, one of the officials nearby slapped him in the face. “Is this the way you answer the high priest?” he demanded.
23 “If I said something wrong,” Jesus replied, “testify as to what is wrong. But if I spoke the truth, why did you strike me?” 24 Then Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.
25 Meanwhile, Simon Peter was still outside warming himself. So they asked him, “You aren’t one of his disciples too, are you?”
He denied it, saying, “I am not.” 26 One of the high priest’s servants, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, challenged him, “Didn’t I see you with him in the garden?” 27 Again Peter denied it, and at that moment a rooster began to crow.

Peter’s Second Letter
~ 2 Peter 2:18-3:7 ~
18 They utter arrogant and pompous words of emptiness, and they beguile and lure back into waywardness those who have barely escaped from deception and delusion. 19 They promise them freedom, but they themselves are slaves of corruption. For whatever overcomes a person, to that he is enslaved. 20 For if when they have fled the corruptions of the world by the teaching of our Lord and our Savior, Jesus Christ, if they are again entangled in these things, they are overcome again and they are worse off than before. 21 It would have been better for them never to have known the way of life that God approves of, than to know it and turn their backs on the sacred life God gives. 22 Then this proverb has come true “the dog is returned to his vomit, and a pig that has been washed will roll in the mud."
3:1 Dear friends, this is now my second letter to you. I have written both of them as reminders to stimulate you to wholesome thinking. 2 To remember what was spoken by the prophets, and what was instructed by your Lord and savior through the apostles. 3 Most importantly, I want to remind you that in the last days scoffers will come, mocking the truth and following their own crooked ways [epithymรญa - cravings]. 4 They will say, “What happened to the promise that Jesus is coming again? From before the times of our ancestors, everything has remained the same since the world was first created.” [Or, another version - and say, "Didn't your Lord promise to come back? Yet the first leaders have already died, and the world hasn't changed a bit."]
5 But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water. 6 Then he used the water to destroy the ancient world with a mighty flood. (When “every thought” thus act “was only evil”.๐ณ) 7 But now the heavens and the Earth by the same (creative) word are being stored and kept for fire unto the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly [anthropos] mankind. (By His very letting things run their course. His options ? Total Ant Farm or Total Herd Immunity? - Mankind will no longer be unGodly, no corruption/suffering/dis-ease anywhere. “All things new”.)
