John 21

John 21:20-25
The Beloved Disciple and His Book

- v20
Then Peter, turning around, saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following, who also had leaned on His breast at the supper, and said, “Lord, who is the one who betrays You?”

- v21
Peter, seeing him, said to Jesus, “But Lord, what about this man?”

- v22 Jesus said to him, “If I will that he remain till I come, what is that to you? You follow Me.


This is the last line that Jesus said in the book of John and of the gospels. Don't compare yourself with others in ministry. Joyce Meyer puts it simply as Jesus saying "Mind your own business" politely. This is Jesus' last piece of advice.

- v25 And there are also many other things that Jesus did, which if they were written one by one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that would be written. Amen.
