:The paragraph as written suggests that faith is a work or accomplishment on our part, i.e. [[pride]]. Romans 12:3, ''"to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith."''

:Peter was not the great rockstar or hero some make him out to be. He betrayed Jesus when he denied him three times. He showed a distinct lack of faith and misunderstanding of God's work and purpose when he cut the Centurions ear off.

:If there is a "greatest of faith" it would be Abraham (Romans chapter 4 and the Book of Galatians), or Peter would be mentioned in Hebrews chapter 11, and he is not. The paragraph as written teaches nothing about Christ. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|De Plorabus Unum]]</sup> 06:31, 2 February 2020 (EST)
