Peter's Story Slows Down

All four gospels turn on a hinge right between kingdom and cross, when jesus begins to incessantly predict his own impending death. Peter declares that even if i have to die with you, i will never disown you. No one who puts a hand to the plough and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of god,. So peter has this imbedded into his soul. Whatever, you don't look back. Forward is the only way in the kingdom.
