The Highway Forums General Discussion Theology Discussion Forum Petra and Petros

Acts 15 would be supportive of that idea. Perhaps it was decided among the Apostles with a good prompting from the Holy Spirit, that Peter had better preaching skills and thus was chosen to preach during the Pentecost celebration? But James was gifted with better administration skills? Whatever the human reason(s) might have been, it was the Spirit's choice of who should function as they did. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> However, one thing seems certain, that Peter is not said to have been one who stood out among the Apostles in any overt way. He was simply a faithful servant who lived and died with an unshakable love for Christ and the desire that the Gospel go out to all who would hear.
