Mark 8:31:33 (KJV)

And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders, and of the chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again. And he spake that saying openly. And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him. But when he had turned about and looked on his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but the things that be of men.

Peter may have had good intentions when he rebuked Jesus for saying He would be killed and then rise again after three days, but Jesus rebuked Peter because he had spoken for Satan and not for God. Oh, let our words carry more than just good intentions; let them always carry truth as expressed in the Word of God and by the Gospel of Christ.
