Peter denies Christ
Jesus predicted Peter's Denial
After singing a hymn on the Mount of Olives. Jesus said,
And Jesus saith unto them, "All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered. Mark 14:27
But after that I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee." Mark 14: 28
But Peter said unto him, Although all shall be offended, yet will not I. Mark 14:28
And Jesus saith unto him, "Verily I say unto thee, that this day, even in this night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice." Mark 14:30
But he spake the more vehemently, If I should die with thee, I will not deny thee in any wise. Likewise also said they all. Mark 14:31
And Jesus saith unto them, "All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered. Mark 14:27

Peter denies Christ
Later when Peter was in the courtyard a maid heard his voice recognizing his accent. She told him "You were with Christ" and Peter denied it.
And as Peter was beneath in the palace, there cometh one of the maids of the high priest: Mark 14:66
And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked upon him, and said, and thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth Mark 14:67
But he denied, saying, I know not, neither understand I what thou sayest. And he went out into the porch; and the cock crew. Mark 14:68
The maid confronted Peter a second time and he denied it again!
And a maid saw him again, and began to say to them that stood by, This is one of them. Mark 14:69
Finally those that were standing near heard his accent and confronted him and Peter vehemently denied Christ saying, " I do not know this man you are talking about" and calling down curses.
And a little after, they that stood by said again to Peter, Surely thou art one of them: for thou art a Galilaean, and thy speech agreeth thereto. Mark 14:70
But he began to curse and to swear, saying, I know not this man of whom ye speak. Mark 14:71
When he had finished speaking the cock crowed a second time and Peter remembered what Jesus had told him and he wept.
And the second time the cock crew. And Peter called to mind the word that Jesus said unto him, "Before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice." And when he thought thereon, he wept.
Peter denied Christ because he was afraid that he would be tortured and killed. His fear of death overrode the words of Christ and the love of Christ.
For God has not given us a spirit of fear but one of power, love and a sound mind 2 Timothy 1:7
