PeterEssayPS

Peter's qualities helped him become the head of the Church. Jesus choose Peter for many different reasons. Because Peter was our first Pope, other popes can learn many things from him.

Peter has many different qualities that contributed to his becoming of Pope. Two of these qualities stood out to me. One of the qualities would be that he was dedicated to Jesus. He was dedicated to Jesus and his teachings because he was the first to realize that Jesus was the Messiah. Peter found out that Jesus was the Messiah and immediately started following Jesus. He preached the word of Jesus to others and became his most loyal follower. Another quality that Peter possesses is that he is dishonest. He may be very loyal to Jesus, but he also disobeyed his words. When Peter found out that Jesus was the Messiah, Jesus said to not say anything. Peter still went out and told people about Jesus. Jesus then told Peter that he was to get behind Him and follow like he is supposed to.

Jesus choose Peter as the first pope for many reasons. Two reasons, I think, would be that he was a very loyal follower of Jesus. Peter was the first to recognize Peter as the Messiah. He may have not obeyed Jesus' word and told people, but he is still loyal and worships Jesus in everything he does. Peter preaches the Word to all for Jesus and is happy to do anything He says. Another quality I thought Peter has that made him the first pope is that Peter is very faithful. He was always preaching the Word of the Lord and always living in the Light of God. Peter is very strong in his faith and that makes him perfect to be the first pope.

Two lessons that future popes can learn from Peter are that he is very connected in his faith and that he is a honest person. He is very connected in his faith because he was very close to Jesus. He would always be preaching and living how God wanted him too. He would preach what needed to be preached and he was very honest with his work. He is a honest person because when he preached he didn't preach what was wrong. He preached the correct word of God and he would be honest in his word inside and outside of the Catholic faith.

Peter has many qualities. Jesus was a very honest man and he was very connected in his faith. He was chosen by Jesus to be the head of the church because of those many qualities and future popes can learn many things from his way of living. Peter may not have been perfect all the time, but he did know how to live a perfect Catholic life.
