According to John, "the rooster crowed". The Gospel of John places the second denial while Peter was still warming himself at the fire and gives as the occasion of the third denial a claim by someone to have seen him in the garden of <a href="/wiki/Gethsemane" title="Gethsemane">Gethsemane</a> when <a href="/wiki/Arrest_of_Jesus" title="Arrest of Jesus">Jesus was arrested</a>.</li> <li>A denial came when Peter's Galilean accent was taken as proof that he was indeed a disciple of Jesus.

Luke deviates slightly from this by stating that, rather than a crowd accusing Simon Peter, it was a third individual. John does not mention the Galilean accent.</li></ol> <p>In the Gospel of Luke is a record of Christ telling Peter: "Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: but I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren."
