:[[Paul]] never walked on water, cured people, or recognized immediately and initially that Jesus was the Christ.  Paul's [[faith]] was immense, but Peter's faith was unsurpassed.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 00:14, 4 July 2013 (EDT)

::Peter took a few steps on water, doubted, started to sink, was rescued by Jesus who upbraided him for his doubting and having little faith (Matthew 14: 29-31).  You can't pick and choose the facts relating to this incident.

Also, Peter and Andrew did drop their nets and immediately follow him in Matthew 4: 20.  However, the Scripture does not clearly spell out that Peter had the revelation that Jesus was the Christ and the Son of the living God until Matthew 16:16.  So you are incorrect to claim that Peter necessarily knew that Jesus was the Christ immediately. Also, in Matthew 16: 23, Jesus tells Peter who allowed Satan to speak through him, "Get behind me, Satan".
