Apostle Peter
As I read the 2 books of Apostle Peter, I learned a few things that I never knew before.
Most pastor's don't talk about Peter's letters, and when it is brought up, its typically used as a manipulation tactic. Nevertheless, I was on a journey to re-read the texts on my own with the Holy Spirit.
I learned that, during the days of Apostle Peter, (AD era) he mostly resided in Rome, and taught the laws of Moses in Rome. He referred to Rome as Babylon.
Apostle Peter discipled other people, and taught them how to accurately teach The Laws of Moses.
During that time, the Romans were slaves, however, they were called Induntured Servants because of their skin tone.
When the Apostle gave martial advice, he advised the Black Jews, and the Roman Christians. It seemed to me, that he used their experiences as a parable of what Yeshua experienced during His time on earth. Basically telling them, just as Yeshua suffered so the Black Jews can be reconciled back to YAH, they should remember what He did for them and honor those in authority over them.
(Also, remember that salvation is for the jew and the gentile)
Apostle Peter also was on the mountains with Yeshua when He met with His ancestors, Moses and Elijah
Luke 9:28-36
So, in the Apocryphia, in The Revelation of Peter, Yeshua explained to Peter the parable of the fig tree. The fig tree is, The Nation of Israel. Who are indeed The Twelve Tribes of Israel.
Yeshua also explained some of what will happen of "The Final Judgment Day", and what happens to souls according to their deeds on earth. And depending on what that was, it would determine what their consequences are.
Example: People that procreate life and then end it, will answer for having sex out of wedlock and abortions. Men will be held accountable, having their genitals tortured by demons. Women, the same thing. And all the kids they aborted just because of irresponsibility, will constantly accuse them of murder. The children who had decent parents and treated their parents like dogs will also be held accountable.
Yeshua also explained that on the final day of judgment, He will arrive with angels and a crown on His head, and judge those who are alive and dead. Starting with YAH's house first.
And if anyone says, "I Am He", and none of these things take place, it is a lie.
Apostle Peter was a disciple, discipled others, he was a teacher, an apostle, evangelist, prayer warrior and a watchman. He honored and respected YAH and Yeshua. What I really took note of was how lucky he was to see Yeshua with his own eyes.
In my conclusion, the story of Apostle Peter is one of encouragement for the second coming of The Messiah, and what to watch for. And by paying attention I can conclude that there will not be an escape during tribulation.
