Cowardice Peter displays cowardice (Mark 14:53-54) Doesn’t want to be identified with Jesus He was unprepared for facing ridicule and persecution

How Closely Are You Following Jesus?

Cowardice Ashamed to stand up for our Lord Jesus? Ashamed to let others know you’re a Christian? Ashamed to be seen reading your Bible? Ashamed to be seen praying? Without Diligent Preparation, We Too Can Become Guilty of Cowardice!

Cowardice Don’t be ashamed of the Gospel! (Rom. 1:16) Remember how Jesus will deal with cowardice (Mark 8:38) Cowards don’t enter Heaven (Rev. 21:8)

Denial Away from Christ & comfortable with the world Peter denies his Lord & Savior (Mark 14:66-71) Peter is now in spiritual danger (Matt. 10:32-33)

Will We Deny Jesus? By Words? By actions?

Denial We are called to worship. We are called to serve God. We are called to suffer for His name. Will we make excuses? Do we render little or no service? Do we stand far off in the safety of worldly comforts?

All Who Deny Will Face The Lord In Judgment...

Denial Peter had to face the Lord (Luke 22:60-62) Just Imagine how Peter felt He wept bitterly!

Notice Peter’s advice for denial (1 Pet. 3:13-17) Was Peter ready for his defense? Being “ready” Involves preparation (2 Pet. 3:17- 18) DENIAL
