True. And then God said not to call common or unclean what He has cleansed. :)
When you say "Jesus" you've said everything.

So I am guessing I'm having a blonde moment (which doesn't occur often... lol)... but was there a point that you were going to make regarding this? :)

Peter didn't get away with it.  It just took him a bit to comprehend what God was trying to tell him.   :hypocrite:
"Do you sing at church?"
"Yes I sing at church, I sing at home, at work, in the car, at the supermarket, at Wal-Mart..."

Already I disagree with the whole premise of the original post.

God's not a tyrant. You don't get away with anything. Either He is being patient or it falls under His love & grace.  This was the way Jesus & Peter often conversed.  I don't read this at all as Peter being defiant but discusing it with God.

Actually a lot of people told God NO and seemed to get away with it..until they day they meet their maker.

The only one I can think of wasn't even in the NT.  Moses told God no, don't destroy Israel and make a new nation from Moses' line. 

I've always wondered if God told Moses to move so God could destroy the people, just to see where Moses' heart was.

And a Pharisee of the Pharisees.  Unless we're talking about a different Paul here.

Maybe you're thinking about Cornelius?

Telly you what; before posting biblical discussions...add some bible to support what you are saying and people just might not make fun of you.
