It is one thing to "say" we love God; it is quite another to truly love Him in an acceptable manner. Peter told the Lord that he loved Him, and he meant it. But Peter had failed in his love. It was only after Pentecost, and the coming of the power of the Spirit, that Peter truly could love Christ. Only by the power of the Spirit can one be committed wholeheartedly to Him, receiving from Him by faith, the power and strength to truly love and follow Christ.
