(Lesson 5289)(07-30-26) Mark 14:27-31
And Jesus saith unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered. But after that I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee. But Peter said unto him, Although all shall be offended, yet will not I. And Jesus saith unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this day, even in this night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice. But he spake the more vehemently, If I should die with thee, I will not deny thee in any wise. Likewise also said they all.“
In today’s quote, Jesus predicted that, on the night of His capture, all His apostles would abandon Him as predicted by prophesy, promising to meet with them again in Galilee after His resurrection. When Peter bragged that his loyalty would never fail, Jesus specifically warned that He would be abandoned by Peter and the others before the rooster crowed twice. ~
