Peter, one of the most influential disciples, was known to Jesus as The Rock. Christ knew the strong will and determination within Peter would serve him well as he grew in his Christian faith. Christ knew Peter would learn to stand firm. But before he stood firm, Peter fell. And when he fell, he fell hard. Peter was determined to stand for Christ no matter what! He told Jesus, "Even if all fall away, I will not." Yet within hours, Peter denied even knowing Jesus on three separate occasions. Peter fell away.
