Brian Godawa Quote

Far be it from you, Lord. This shall never happen to you. Do not the Scriptures say Messiah will reign at the right hand of Yahweh until he has made his enemies your footstool? Jesus turned angry toward him. Get behind me, Accuser. You are a hindrance to me. For you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of man. Jesus strode away, leaving Peter in shock, crestfallen. A moment before, Jesus had given him the keys of the kingdom, and now the Master was rebuking him as a satanic adversary. Simon could not help but sympathize with Peter. He too was confused about how suffering and death could fit in with a Messiah as conquering king. Peter had not twisted Scripture.
