I never took the time to look at why Peter and the others found it so easy to follow Jesus, while others did not. We can assume Peter was taught Jesus as a child, Peter knew Isaiah 53. John the Baptist was raised by a remnant. The word of God got changed in the Garden and it got changed in the 1940s. Quoting: Goofy for God Peter and the other 11 had their difficulties with Jesus' teachings too, but they were also the only ones to see things like Peter walking on the water and the "calming of the storm" on the Sea of Galilee. How many others might not have stopped following Jesus (John 6) if they had seen things like this? Also...Peter, James and John were the only 3 who saw Jesus, Moses and Elias at the Transfiguration. Ironic that all 3 ended up with writings in our modern Bibles. The Hebrews had a history of being "stiff-necked", and through the centuries past had ignored and even mistreated the prophets. Is it any wonder they balked at Jesus, who claimed He was (and is) the Son of God? Lastly, I have no doubt that the Father had His Hand in Jesus' choosing of the 12 - even Judas. After all...Jesus' entire "mission" on earth was the Father's plan.  John 17:12 King James Version (KJV) 12 While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled. God picked them for Him
