Whenever we are naïve enough to think "I would never deny my Lord," we need to be reminded of the prediction of Jesus that all would deny Him. 1. Pride: everyone messes up, why do you still think that you are special? (v.26-27) 2. Grace: Jesus is not done with those who mess up, so are you still trying to earn something or prove something? (v.28) 3. A humbling lesson: have you yet learned the difference between being emphatic and being cautious? Are you still denying your denying? (v.29-31) Why is it important to see ourselves accurately? What gain is seeing our weakness? Pv.16:18,1Cor.10:12,1Pet. 2:21 When does sovereignty comfort us? Is.53:4 Ps.77:19, Pv.28:26 How does God advance His kingdom with such people? Jn 21:15-17
