Abstract

Jesus’s admonition to Peter is the result of Christ’s faithful realization of God’s plan of salvation, which includes passion, death and resurrection. Peter shows a misunderstanding of the Master’s words, responding to Jesus with words which express the wish that events, diffi cult to accept by human kind, would not be fulfi lling. The response of Christ is not so much an expression of rejection and condemnation, but a call to follow Jesus in the position as a disciple, who totally obeys his Lord. Jesus admonishes the Apostle so that Peter can understand his mistake and change his behavior. The message of Jesus has a universal dimension. Every one of His disciples is called to follow Him, taking his cross upon his shoulders, completely giving and entrusting his life to Him, because this is the only way which leads to eternal life.
