In other words, he repented.
Amen and Peter did, he wept because he repented.
Yes, Peter repented of having the Lord Jesus Christ look right at him and call PETER by the name of Satan. OF COURSE, he probably cried. Scripture doesn’t record Jesus ever repenting of CALLING PETER the name “Satan”.
RCs really goofed by fallibly choosing Peter as the fisherman that Jesus Christ, the Chief Cornerstone and Head of His Own Church, would make the first pope of the church in a town (Rome, Italy) there is no assurance he (Peter) ever visited.
Paul did though. Paul may have been executed in or near Rome but records are sketchy. Why did the early RC leaders NOT choose Paul as first RCC pope? Odd, isn’t it, considering that Peter of the Bible was very little like Jesus of Nazareth?
