Luke 6:13-14 KJV
And when it was day, he called unto him his disciples: and of them he chose twelve, whom also he named apostles;
Simon, (whom he also named Peter,) and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,
Matthew sixteen gives us the account of this naming of Peter.
It is not merely that Jesus used what existed and gave an object lesson from it. Jesus created the play on words between the little pebble, Peter, and the Rock, Jesus Christ.
The Bible also tells me that all who are saved have a new name in Christ.
• I want to live in respect to that name
• I want to accept what Christ has called me to be and live to the fullest in His call
