Matthew 16:21-28 - Get behind me Satan!

16:21-28

Jesus then starts to tell His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem and suffer much. Peter is appalled at the idea and tries to dissuade Jesus from this path. Note that one minute having received revelation from God, the next minute Peter is speaking the words of Satan. We must never get full of ourselves. Jesus knew it was Satan trying to get him. Jesus  then tells the disciples that not only must He suffer, but they too must be prepared to suffer. Currently they do not appreciate the enormity of what is happening and about to happen.
