<strong>The</strong> <strong>Book</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Jesus</strong> Chapter Twenty: <strong>The</strong> life <strong>of</strong> <strong>Jesus</strong> from <strong>the</strong> Gospels <strong>of</strong> Mat<strong>the</strong>w, Mark, Luke, John in easy-to-read, chronological format.<br />
PETER.<br />
Lord, you know all things. You know that I love you!<br />
JESUS.<br />
Feed my sheep. I tell you most solemnly, when you were young, you put on your own belt and walked wherever you wanted to, but<br />
when you grow old, you will stretch out your hands and ano<strong>the</strong>r will put a belt round you and take you where you don't want to go.<br />
NARRATOR.<br />
<strong>Jesus</strong> said this, indicating <strong>the</strong> kind <strong>of</strong> death by which Peter would give glory to God. When he had said this, he said to Peter:<br />
JESUS.<br />
Follow me.<br />
NARRATOR.<br />
<strong>The</strong>n Peter turned and saw <strong>the</strong> disciple <strong>Jesus</strong> loved following <strong>the</strong>m; <strong>the</strong> one who had leaned on his breast at supper and said; "Lord,<br />
who is it that betrays you?" Peter seeing him said to <strong>Jesus</strong>:<br />
PETER.<br />
What about him, Lord?<br />
JESUS.<br />
If I want him to stay behind until I come, what does it concern you. You follow me!<br />
NARRATOR.<br />
<strong>The</strong> rumor <strong>the</strong>n went out among <strong>the</strong> bro<strong>the</strong>rs that this disciple would not die. Yet <strong>Jesus</strong> didn't say to him that he wouldn't die, but "If I<br />
want him to stay behind until I come, what does it concern you?" This is <strong>the</strong> disciple who vouches for <strong>the</strong>se things and wrote <strong>the</strong>se<br />
things and we know that his testimony is true. <strong>The</strong>re are also many o<strong>the</strong>r things that <strong>Jesus</strong> did and if <strong>the</strong>y all would have been written<br />
down, I suppose that even <strong>the</strong> world itself could not hold all <strong>the</strong> books that would have to be written. So <strong>the</strong>n after <strong>the</strong> Lord had<br />
spoken to <strong>the</strong>m, he was received up into heaven and sat on <strong>the</strong> right hand <strong>of</strong> God. And <strong>the</strong>y went out and preached everywhere, <strong>the</strong><br />
Lord working with <strong>the</strong>m and confirming <strong>the</strong> word by <strong>the</strong> signs that accompanied it. Amen.<br />
Mark 16:...19,20; John 21:1-25<br />
