    Introduction
    Disappointing people
    Matthew 26:34 ESV
    34 Jesus said to him, “Truly, I tell you, this very night, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.”
    Matthew 26:58 ESV
    58 And Peter was following him at a distance, as far as the courtyard of the high priest, and going inside he sat with the guards to see the end.

    Exposition
    Matthew 26:69 ESV
    69 Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard. And a servant girl came up to him and said, “You also were with Jesus the Galilean.”
    Matthew 26:70 ESV
    70 But he denied it before them all, saying, “I do not know what you mean.”
    Matthew 26:71 ESV
    71 And when he went out to the entrance, another servant girl saw him, and she said to the bystanders, “This man was with Jesus of Nazareth.”
    Matthew 26:72 ESV
    72 And again he denied it with an oath: “I do not know the man.”
    Matthew 5:34 ESV
    34 But I say to you, Do not take an oath at all, either by heaven, for it is the throne of God,
    Matthew 26:73 ESV
    73 After a little while the bystanders came up and said to Peter, “Certainly you too are one of them, for your accent betrays you.”
    Matthew 26:74 NASB95
    74 Then he began to curse and swear, “I do not know the man!” And immediately a rooster crowed.
    NASB (ESV “began to invoke a curse upon himself)
    The word for curse requires a direct object
    Matthew 26:75 ESV
    75 And Peter remembered the saying of Jesus, “Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.” And he went out and wept bitterly.
    Remember...
    Matthew 26:33 ESV
    33 Peter answered him, “Though they all fall away because of you, I will never fall away.”
    Matthew 26:35 ESV
    35 Peter said to him, “Even if I must die with you, I will not deny you!” And all the disciples said the same.
    Observations

    I. Jesus is the True Prophet

    Contrast with Matthew 26:68
    Matthew 26:68 ESV
    68 saying, “Prophesy to us, you Christ! Who is it that struck you?”
    Application
    Trust Jesus’ Word

    II. Even the strongest of disciples fail

    Application
    Don’t expect to be perfect
    Don’t look for “super-Christian” idols

    III. Peter’s repentance begins with weeping over his sin

    Application
    Weep over your sin
    Conclusion
    Comparison between Peter and Judas.
    2 Corinthians 7:10 ESV
    10 For godly grief produces a repentance that leads to salvation without regret, whereas worldly grief produces death.
    Prayer of Thanksgiving
