GospeL Verses ~ Mt.26:58-75; Jn.18:15-27

(Jesus was arrested and led away.) 58 - Peter was following at a distance, and he went inside the courtyard of the high priest and sat with the guards to see what would happen. 59 The leaders, the chief priests and the whole council were looking for some false testimony against Jesus so they could have him put to death. 60 But there was none, though many false witnesses came forward. Then at last two came forward 61 and said, “This man said, ‘I am able to destroy the temple of God, and then rebuild it in three days.’” 62 The high priest stood up and said to Jesus, “Have you no answer!? What is it that these men testify against you?” 63 But Jesus remained silent. And the high priest said, “Under oath to the living God, tell us if you are the Christ! The Son of God.” 64 Jesus said to him, “It’s you who has said so. But I tell you, from now on you will see the Son of Man seated at the right hand of Power and coming on the clouds of heaven.” 65 The high priest tore his robes and said, “He has uttered blasphemy! What further witnesses do we need? You heard it! 66 What is your judgment?” They answered, “He deserves to die.” 67 Then they spit in his face and hit him. And some slapped him, 68 saying, “Prophesy to us, oh you Christ! Who is it that struck you?”

     69 Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard. And a servant girl said, “You also were with Jesus the Galilean.” 70 But he denied it before them all, saying, “I don’t know what you mean.” 71 And when he went out to the gate, another servant girl saw him, and she said to the people standing there, “This man was with Jesus of Nazareth.” 72 And again he denied it with an oath, “I do not know the man!” 73 After a little while the bystanders came up and said to Peter, “Certainly you too are one of them, for you talk like one from Galilee.” 74 Then he swore and said, “I do not know the man!” And right then the rooster crowed. 75 And Peter remembered what Jesus had said, “Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.” And he went out and wept bitterly.

     John 18:15-27

15 - Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple (John, who wrote this.) Since that disciple was known to the high priest, he entered with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest, 16 but Peter stood outside at the gate. The other disciple spoke to the servant girl who kept watch at the gate, and brought Peter in. 17 The servant girl said to Peter, “Were you one of this man's disciples?” He said, “No, I’m not”. 18 The servants and officers had made a charcoal fire because it was cold, and they were standing around it warming themselves. And Peter was standing with them.

     19 The high priest was questioning Jesus about his disciples and his teachings. 20 Jesus answered, “I have been speaking openly to the world. I’ve always taught in the synagogues and in the temple, where the people come together. I’ve said nothing in secret. 21 Why ask me? Ask those who’ve heard me. They know what I said.” 22 When he had said this, one of the officers standing by struck Jesus with his hand, saying, “Is that how you answer the high priest?” 23 Jesus answered him, “If what I said is wrong, tell me the wrong, but if what I said is true, why do you strike me?” 24 Annas then sent him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.

     25 Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. So they said to him, “You also are not one of his disciples, are you?” He denied it, saying, “I am not.” 26 One of the servants of the high priest, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, asked, “Didn’t I see you in the garden with him?” 27 Peter again denied it, and at once a rooster crowed.

From New Testament Letters

     (In the Order Believed Written)

                ~ 2 Peter 2:18-3:7 ~

18 - Arrogantly speaking loud and foolish boasts, they entice sensually, 19 promising freedom, but they themselves are slaves to corruption. For whatever overcomes a person, to that they are a slave! 20 Now if, after having escaped the defilements of the world through the knowing of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, their last state will become worse than the first! 21 It would be better if they had never known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back. 22 What the true proverb says has happened to them: “The dog returns to his vomit, and the sow, after washing herself, returns to wallow in the mire.”

     3:1 - This is now the second letter that I’ve written to you, beloved. In both of them I am stirring up your sincere mind by way of reminder, 2 that you should remember the prophecies of the prophets and the commandment of the Lord and Savior through the apostles, 3 knowing this, that there will be scoffers in the last days scoffing, and following their own sinful ways. 4 They will say, “Where is the promise of his coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they have from the beginning.” 5 They deliberately overlook that long ago by God’s word the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water. 6 And it’s by means of these the world that then existed was deluged with water and perished. 7 But by that same word, the heavens and earth that now exist, is storing up fire, that is being kept until the day of judgment and the destruction of godlessness. (2Pet.3:12-13, Rev.21:5)
