Sinopse

Jesus does not rebuke those trapped by their own destructive behaviours. He rebukes those who would trap others with their unfounded and misguided confidence about what is right or true. Peter does not realise what he is doing when he seeks to ‘correct’ Jesus’ understanding of his destiny. Peter seems to think he knows better than Jesus how to look after things… where they should be headed. The good news is good news (in part) because it is so different from the familiar ways and the established order of things. Jesus’ way challenges long-held beliefs about the way things work. How about you? Is your mind set on the established way of the world or the ways of God?
