Godâs words say, "Over the time he followed Jesus, Peter observed and took to heart everything about His life: His actions, words, movements, and expressions. He gained a deep understanding that Jesus was not like ordinary men. Although His human appearance was exceedingly ordinary, He was full of love, compassion, and tolerance for man. Everything He did or said was of great aid to others, and by His side Peter saw and learned things he had never seen or had before. He saw that although Jesus had neither a grand stature nor unusual humanity, He had a truly extraordinary and uncommon air about Him."
We can see from Godâs words: Peter could recognize the Lord Jesus is Christ, which is certainly not a coincidence but inseparably related to his close observation of the Lord Jesusâ words and behaviors. Peter especially paid attention to the words spoken by the Lord and often sought the truth and grasped Lordâs will from His words. When He found that every word spoken by the Lord Jesus is the truth and none is capable of speaking such words, He recognized that the Lord Jesus is Christ.
From Peterâs experience, we can gain some enlightenment. If we want to achieve true knowledge of God, we should focus on His words because Godâs words contain Godâs disposition, Godâs will, Godâs requirement of man, what God has and is, and so forth. Only if we pay close attention to Godâs words can we attain knowledge of God little by little!
Brothers and sisters, are you willing to imitate Peter, seeking the truth more in Godâs words and pursuing to be a person who has true knowledge of God?
