		At the close of his brief sojourn at Caesarea our Lord took Peter and James and John with him into "an high mountain apart," and was transfigured before them.
		He is now no more the unreliable, changeful, self-confident man, ever swaying between rash courage and weak timidity, but the stead-fast, trusted guide and director of the fellowship of believers, the intrepid preacher of Christ in Jerusalem and abroad.
		This subject had awakened new interest at Antioch, and for its settlement was referred to the council of the apostles and elders at Jerusalem.

		Peter says that the false teachers he is addressing "walk according to the flesh in the lust of uncleanness" 2:2:10; they "have eyes full of adultery" and they were constantly "beguiling unstable souls" vs. 14.
		Revelation calls the false teachers Nicolaitans; but they are also called teachers of the way of Balaam; just as in 2 Peter and Jude.
		Revelation does not stand isolated therefore from the religious milieu of the rest of the New Testament.

	Revelation
		The "Revelation of John" is used in preference to "Revelation of Jesus Christ" because I want to stress that the revelation of Jesus Christ was given to John in a vision ("I (John) was in the Spirit") to write down and form a record.
		The Revelation of John may contain both forms of prophecy, but even if that is true the most important aspect of prophecy evident in the Revelation of John is the content that bears upon our relationship with God and the communion of saints.
		It took a revelation to Peter involving other saints to convince the early Jerusalem church that the gospel should be preached to not only the Jew but also the Gentile.

		The Revelation of Peter consists of images of paradise as well as ghastly descriptions of the souls suffering positive torments in Hell, a sort of precursor to _The Inferno_ of Dante.
		The Revelation of Peter was included among the canonical works in the Muratorian fragment, but it was noted that this book was found unsuitable by some for reading at the mass (perhaps this was because it contained such a vivid portrayal of the souls suffering in Hell).

		Peter was no more important than any of the rest of the Twelve Apostles, and one need only look further to see that 'proud Peter' was soon knocked off his high horse, when he rebuked the Lord Jesus, (Who told the disciples He would be soon killed in Jerusalem), saying,
		We do, however, refer to St. Peter as a "leader of the Apostles" because, among other things, he was the first to confess Jesus as the Christ and he was the first to stand and preach Christ at Pentecost.
		Nobody says that Peter was the supreme infallible leader or that peter was the only importnat Church leader all the apostolic churches(Catholic and Orthodox) have the same belief and are authoritative, but Peter's Church has done the most to protect the message from Heresy.

	Ante-Nicene Fathers, Vol. X
		The Revelation of Peter affords the earliest embodiment in Christian literature of those pictorial presentations of heaven and hell which have exercised so widespread and enduring an influence.
		Its only parallels in canonical scripture, with the notable exception of the Second Epistle of Peter, are to be found in Isaiah lxvi., 24, Mark ix., 44, 48, and the parable of Dives and Lazarus in Luke xvi., 19.
		It is called the Apocalypse of Peter, or the narrative of things revealed to him by Jesus Christ which had taken place from the beginning of the world and which shall take place till the end of the world or the second coming of Christ.

	You are Peter ... by Dwight Longenecker
		Peter is the one who declares that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and Jesus says it was by special divine revelation that Peter was able to say this.
		With John, Peter's the one to set up the Last Supper and at that supper in Luke 22.31-32 Jesus affirms Peter's importance by telling him to hold the faith and he gives Peter a special job to strengthen his brothers in their belief.
		Peter may have been the leader of the Apostles, and he may have ended up as the leader of the Church of Rome, but does that mean he was considered leader of the whole church?

	Peter's Primacy In Scripture
		Peter speaks for the whole group, and says Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of the living God.
		The fact that Peter denied Jesus later would fit with this, although if Peter had learned by way of an interior locution Peter might have had a clear message at the start, which later, by the time of the death of Jesus, had faded, and so Peter could deny Him.
		In that they contradict Scripture, for 2 Peter 3:15-16 tells us that in St. Paul's Epistles, "there are many things hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction." Protestant twisting of this passage surely fits what Peter's Epistle said.

	Apocalypse Of Peter (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		100-125 C.E. The Apocalypse of Peter is the earliest Christian reference to the afterlife, describing in vivid detail the paradise of Heaven and the torments of Hell.
		The work is quite early, for it was referenced by Clement and likely used by the author of the Apocalypse of Paul; It may even predate the canonical Apocalypse (Revelation) of John.
		It is difficult to speculate why it fell out of favor in the orthodox church, except perhaps that it was often associated with the heretical Gospel of Peter.

	The Confession of Peter and the Rock of Revelation
		It was by revelation that Peter knew that Jesus was the Christ.
		You simply learn that Peter had made the discovery, by revelation, that Jesus was the Son of the living God, and that upon the rock (revelation) he (Christ) would build his Church, and upon nothing else, and that the gates of hell should not prevail against it.
		We are built upon the rock of revelation, as Peter was, and on the same principle.

	The Development of the Canon of the New Testament - Apocalypse of Peter
		In contrast to the Revelation of John which displays the final struggle and triumph of Jesus Christ, its interest no longer lies on the person of the Redeemer, but on the situation in the after-life, on the description of different classes of sinner, on the punishment of the evil and the salvation of the righteous.
		For the identification of the Apocalypse of Peter and the assessment of its significance and influence, the citations in the Church Fathers are particularly important.
		In addition to this fragment of text, some further unpaginated leaves were found with parts of the Book of Enoch and the Gospel of Peter.

		Writing about the Day of the Lord, Peter comments on what Paul has written on the subject and adds, "There are some difficult things in his letters which ignorant and unstable people explain falsely, as they do with other passages of the Scriptures.
		Most of us know Revelation only from the letters to the churches in chapters 2 and 3 and the ascriptions of praise that have been used in oratorios and anthems.
		I believe that, while much of the symbolic detail of Revelation will remain a mystery until the end times, there is much of its broad sweep that we can and ought to grasp.

	The Revelation of St John The Divine - Godshew.org
		I'm not the only one who noticed Revelation is written as an epistle, and the salutation ending it is that format commonly used by Paul in every epistle.
		Yes, "John" is named 'six' times in the book of Revelation when counting the title, but such is also clever Pauline allegoric satire about John (a gotcha), whom Paul allegorically satired as one of the three top "dogs", saying "beware of dogs".
		Due to the evidence I have to conclude Paul is writer of Revelation, not John, and so as not to restate what I've already written elsewhere, I refer any readers interested to Revelations of Revelation #6 for details.

	Natural and Special Revelation: 1st Peter #11
		Review: As we mentioned in our last study, the book of 1st Peter is greatly concerned with spiritual growth (especially in respect to the role which suffering plays as an agent in the Christian growth process).
		Special Revelation (or "supernatural revelation"): God graciously obliges anyone who thirsts to know more about Him beyond the basic truths which can be discerned through contemplation of the natural world.
		But while it is possible for the unbeliever to discover the Gospel in the Bible on his own, and for the believer to extract certain principles of truth unaided, this is not the exclusive procedure for acquiring God's truth.
