John 1:40 tells us that Jesus was near the Jordan River where John the Baptist was baptizing when He (Jesus) first met Peter. Later after turning the water into wine at Cana of Galilee, Jesus, His mother, His brothers, and His disciples went to Capernaum by the Sea of Galilee.
Peter was called peter because jesus liked the name peter because he'd met a bartender one night called peter and it stuck with him so peter was peter's name and jesus was a prick
The name of the first four disciples were Andrew, Peter, James and john. These four were fishermen.
A:In the synoptic gospels, Jesus first met Peter and his brother Andrew as they were fishing at the Sea of Galilee. It is in John's Gospel that Peter was introduced to Jesus: Andrew was following Jesus and ran to tell Peter, who came and joined them.
Peter was a fisherman before he met Jesus
Actually John says Peter and his brother Andrew were the disciples of John the Baptist, so when he met jess he left his nets and followed him, Jesus said you are Simon I shall call you Peter, The Rock.On this Rock I will build my church.
No Jesus met peter near the river mending his net with his brother Andrew.
According to Mark and Matthew, Jesus saw Simon and Andrew fishing in Galilee, and commanded them to follow him. He later named Simon, Peter.Luke follows Mark in its explanation of how Jesus met Peter, but says that Peter was not actually chosen as an apostle until some time later, when Jesus called all his apostles together and chose twelve, one of whom was Peter, to be apostles.John says that Andrew was a disciple of John the Baptist, who told him to follow Jesus. Andrew went and got his brother, Simon Peter, and brought him to Jesus (John 1:35-42).
Jesus met Peter by the Sea of Galilee , as Peter was a fisherman, with his brother Andrew.Andrew introduced Peter to Jesus. Andrew had been a disciple of John the Baptist.A:The synoptic gospels say that Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee and saw the brothers Peter and Andrew fishing, and called them to him (Mark 1:16). John's Gospel says that Andrew was a disciple of John the Baptist; John told Andrew to follow Jesus, after which Andrew ran to fetch Peter and bring him to Jesus.Many have sought to reconcile the synoptic account with that of John's Gospel, although not very convincingly when the texts are carefully read. However, on this view, Jesus first met Peter when Andrew brought him from his house, and when Jesus saw them by the seaside, this was a second meeting.
In all the biblical accounts of the calling and training of Jesus' disciples, the lists and order of the names of the 12 men are almost identical. In all four Gospels, the first name in these lists is always Peter. From the day that Peter met Jesus, he was singled out by Jesus to be a "rock" of strength for the others. He was a natural born leader and quickly became the spokesman for the whole group. With each rebuke from the Lord for something he said or did, he is teachable and open to correction. After Jesus' resurrection and ascension and the arrival of the Holy Spirit, Peter becomes a key leader and a chief spokesman for the newly forming church in Jerusalem.
The day they met Jesus
All of them met Jesus.
Matthew, John, Peter, Jude, and James all knew Jesus. Mark also may have known Him. The first person was used, particularly by John and Peter. John repeatedly used the pronoun 'I'. Paul had also met Jesus on the road to Damascus. He used 'I' and 'we' frequently. Also, they are writing about Jesus, not about themselves.
