Word of Wisdom

 Jesus gave a word of wisdom/knowledge~
v29 Peter said to Jesus, "Even if all are made to stumble, yet I will not be."  v30 Jesus said to Peter, "It is sure, I say to you that today, even by tonight, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times." v31 But Peter spoke more vehemently, "If I have to die with You, I will not deny You!"

wisdom speaks to future
knowledge speaks to facts

v67 "You also were with Jesus of Nazareth."
v68 "I neither know nor understand what you are saying."

v69 "This is one of them."
v70 Peter denied it again.

v70 "Surely you are one of them, for you are a Galilean, and your
          speech shows it."
v71 Peter began to curse and swear, "I do not know this Man of
       whom you speak!"

It all happened.  Jesus' Word of Wisdom & Knowledge came to pass exactly, and at the time is wasn't but for Peter to understand his real condition because Peter really believed that he would stick with Jesus through thick and thin but once reality hit, hit him hard, the needed growth became gravely obvious...  that we don't know ourselves as well as we think we do but we do know we meant well~
