The Twelve-Simon Peter

Brian Hopkins

January 26, 2025

Simon - whom Jesus named Peter (or Cephas) - is found listed first in all the Biblical listings of Jesus' chosen apostles. So it is appropriate for us to begin our study of "The Twelve" with Simon Peter. For many of us, Simon Peter is the apostle with whom we identify most closely. In this study, we look at Simon's progress from sinful and worldly fisherman through his time with Jesus as one of His closest followers to his denial of Jesus on the night He was betrayed and his subsequent restoration by the resurrected Jesus until finally Peter became a mature and bold fisher of men that Jesus promised to make him in the years after Jesus ascended back to His Father.

Revive Us – Pursue Holiness

In the first message of this series, we looked at the universal desire among Christ followers for "revival." We explored the meaning of revival, and were encouraged as we seek revival within ourselves to pray the words of King David from Psalm 51 - "Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me." We must seek to be holy before God when we pray for revival because God also tells us in Leviticus - "I am the Lord your God. Consecrate yourselves therefore, and be holy, for I am holy." As we seek revival, we must also seek to live in holiness empowered by God's Spirit within us.

The Twelve – Introduction

Before we launch into our study of the twelve men Jesus chose from among His disciples to be apostles, it is important to make a distinction between Jesus' hundreds or thousands of disciples and the twelve He chose to empower and send forth as His representatives in the ancient world. We also often overlook the fact that many of Jesus' disciples were women. God's Word gives us several lists of these women who followed Jesus and served Him during His earthly ministry.
