Jesus was just as human as we was divine. He was God among us, but he felt and had all the same instincts as every other human - including the instinct towards self preservation. In calling Peter, "Satan," we see some of that instinct bleeding through. Across the Gospels, we see Christ wrestle with this idea that he is to die That struggle opens up for us an opportunity to witness the true character of Christ, and to understand that God always invites rather than force.
