At the time that Christ said that to Peter, Peter did not believe that Jesus was God? How do you know that?
Or maybe you're saying that at the time that Christ said that to Peter, Peter was not a disciple of Christ? That's another crazy suggestion.
At the time Christ said that to Peter, Peter was a Christian.
"At the time Christ said that to Peter, Peter was a Christian."
That was before Christ ascended into heaven. And I'm the one who needs to scholared.
