Apostle Peter Never Said That He Didn't Understand Apostle Paul. by Image123(m): 3:05pm On Mar 18
2Pe 3:16 KJV As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.

For some reason, people believe and preach that Peter himself did not understand some of the teachings of Paul, quoting this passage. Their end game is usually to discredit part of the epistles as not for the church. How odd and gbajuelistic in outcome!
Anyway, the clear point is that Apostle Peter never said that he doesn't know or understand what Paul taught or wrote about. What he clearly said was that there were some things there that were hard to be understood. Paul himself, who is usually pointed as the writer of Hebrews talked about strong meat. That a topic is hard or strong doesn't necessarily mean that one doesn't understand it. It is simply tougher than other milk like subjects or topics.

Peter never actually bore witness to a particular one of the many statements made in Paul's his epistles. Peter never infact mentioned a particular letter or writing so to assert that Peter agreed with all suggested in Paul's various epistles requires a tremendous leap in judgment. undecided

Above all, the law regarding agreements on truths as given by Jesus Christ stipulates that at least 2 or fhree witnesses have to agree on particular thing/issue/truth for it to be considered of Jesus Christ I.e. Jesus Christ be in their midst. However, with Peter never in fact mentioning any one thing/issue/truth stated by Paul, he fails as a witness standing with Paul. undecided

There are some self acclaimed apostles claiming Peter warned us against the epistles of apostle Paul. It is a pity that many are now following such confused "apostles" in this day and age. undecided

2 Peter 3:15-18
15And consider the patience of our Lord [His delay in judging and avenging wrongs] as salvation [that is, allowing time for more to be saved]; just as our beloved brother Paul also wrote to you according to the wisdom given to him [by God],
16speaking about these things as he does in all of his letters. In which there are some things that are difficult to understand, which the untaught and unstable [who have fallen into error] twist and misinterpret, just as they do the rest of the Scriptures, to their own destruction.
17Therefore, [let me warn you] beloved, knowing these things beforehand, be on your guard so that you are not carried away by the error of unprincipled men [who distort doctrine] and fall from your own steadfastness [of mind, knowledge, truth, and faith],
18but grow [spiritually mature] in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be glory (honor, majesty, splendor), both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.
