Jesus Foretells Peter’s Denial – Matthew 26:31-35
In Matthew 26:31–35, Jesus warns his disciples that they will all fall away because of him. He quotes the prophecy: “I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will scatter.” Peter insists he would never abandon Jesus, even if everyone else did. Jesus then predicts that Peter will deny him three times before the rooster crows that very night. Despite Peter’s bold vow to die rather than disown his Lord, Jesus’ words come true and Peter denies him three times.
