Why did Jesus choose Peter? Many people ask this question. I'm going to share with you my opinion why Jesus chose Peter.One of the topics I will talk about is the qualities of Peter. That will show how Peter was toward everybody and Jesus. Then I will talk about why Jesus chose Peter to be the first Pope of the church. Lastly I will tell you the lesson future Popes can learn from Peter when he was Pope.

One of the qualities Peter has is that he is faithful. Peter was faithful because he Jesus appeared to him and told him to go back and tell his brothers to leave for Galilee and they will see him there. He followed the Lords orders and left Galilee to go see the Lord. When they got there Jesus told them to go out and baptize every nation in the name of the Father the Son and the Holy Spirit. Another one of the qualities is that Peter is obedient to whatever Jesus tells him to to do. When Jesus tells Peter to do something their is never a hesitation he just goes out and does it. For example in the same gospel Jesus told him to go and tell his brothers to leave and go to Galilee and their was no hesitation and he went and told them.

In my opinion Jesus chose Peter because he has all of those great qualities. Why would you want somebody that is going to slack of and not be a leader. He was the first Apostle and was chosen by Jesus. He was the most faithful to Jesus and never doubted what he said. When Peter was going to meet his death he thought he wasn't worthy enough to be crucified as Jesus was. He was crucified upside down the opposite way Jesus was crucified. He was the most obedient because he always stayed by his side and listened to every word he said.

Popes today can learn from Peter by just trying to keep the closest relationship with God as they can.They must always remain faithful no matter what other people say. Just because other people say God is not real, Doesn't mean you have to believe them. Always remember that our ultimate goal is to make it to heaven. when you make it to heaven you can finally be reunited with god.

Those were my options of the qualities of Peter, why Jesus chose Peter, and the lessons of Popes today can learn from Peter. I hope that you agree with everything I said. Remember that to always keep God first and continue your journey to heaven
