All In — Week 3
This week we look at Peter who denied three times that he even knew Jesus. Tradition teaches that Peter stayed the course, finished the well and was eventually executed because of his faith in Jesus. The only explanation for this change in Peter is that he saw the resurrected Christ. How does knowing the resurrected Christ change us?
In Acts 3, we are reintroduced to the Apostle Peter, but it's a vastly different character than the one who denied Jesus three times. Christian tradition teaches that Peter stayed the course, finished the well and was eventually executed because of his faith in Jesus. WestGate lead pastor Steve Clifford puts forth the case that the only plausible explanation for this change in Peter is that he saw the resurrected Christ. It changed Peter. And if we see Him, it might just change us, too.
