P. 46

That’s how Christ showed the disciples that His Church will be build upon
        this Rock which is the faith in the Lord

        Jesus Christ the Son of God just like Peter

        declared it in front of everyone. And that the
        Lord Jesus keeps and protects His church

        from any harm.
        Saint Peter continued to follow Christ and

        to learn from Him day after day. He learned
        that God loves us all and accepts us even

        when we make mistakes as long as we re-
        pent and confess our sins.



                                     Peter Denies Jesus and Jesus Forgives
                                     P eter Denies J    esus and J    esus F  or gi v es
                                      Him:
                                      Him: During the trial of our Lord Jesus, Peter
                                       denied that he knew Christ not one time, but

                                        THREE times. However, when Peter regret-
                                         ted what he had done, and offered repen-

                                           tance, the Lord accepted his repentance.
                                            The Holy Bible tells us that the Lord Jesus

                                             wanted Peter to know that He accepted
                                              his repentance, so he appeared to the

                                               disciples after the Resurrection at the
                                                Sea of Tiberias. The Lord Jesus asked

                                                 Peter the same question 3 times, “Do
                                                  you love Me?” And Peter answered
