falcon01: If you are an atheist or agnostic or of other faith, it is always sensible to respect another person's belief system. You declaring hate for Jesus wont deter others faith in him and what he represents. Just know your scale in the scheme of things. You might not matter most times. |

It was because peter in a short while had forgotten his three-year consecration and had gone back to fishing. So the Lord wanted to know if he loved his profession of fishing more than the Lord. |

This is because Peter had DENIED Jesus three times in the past (Mt 26:69-75) Although he did not know, he would be damned for ever if he died in that state. That is why Jesus asked him three times also so he will renounce the damned way he had unknowingly chosen with his own tongue by his own word saying "I love you" after carefully thinking through Jesus' question. It must be complete...three denials, three renounces. That is why even though Jesus knew that Peter would be angry/grieved went ahead & asked him the third time (John 21:17). The same with us today. Any time we live against the written word of God, we deny Jesus & until we make a total turn around denying self instead of Jesus Christ, we are walking the way of the damned. |

Peter was one of Jesus foremost apostle who was love by him, Jesus earlier told all his apostle during the last dinner that all of them wil deny him in a matter of hours but Peter vowed to Jesus that even if all the apostle wil deny him he wil not(matthew 26:31-35). However before the roaster crows Peter had already denied Jesus 3 times. Also after Jesus dead most of the apostles including Peter was discouraged and returned to their secular work, so after Jesus's resurrection Jesus has to ask Peter 3 times whether Peter 'loves him more than this'(apparently pointing to fish on their meal table) John 21:13-17 |

jesusjnr2020:Apt! More of God's grace. The words ". .. more than these" have always made me ponder. Jesus had just gotten them 'bread and fish'. Twas like Jesus saying, would you take the feeding of my sheep (seeking God's kingdom & his righteousness) more seriously than your source of livelihood (they were fishermen) & personal satisfaction- (what to eat, drink and wear)? May God help us to labor and serve him acceptably 1 Like |

A thread for atheists to puke upon.. Keep saying there is no God.. las las when the world ends your eye go clear Back to the question... Jesus knew Peter was human, and the cost of being a disciple comes with a lot of persecution. Even after all the asking Peter still denied Jesus. Because he was afraid it was only human of Peter . But the turnaround came at Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit came down and saturated and engulfed every heart at the upper room that they began to speak in strange spiritual languages.. the Bible puts it that they were endowed with power, and they began to preach with boldness. Peter became an extraordinary man who started doing extraordinary things for God, even in the face of great persecution and imprisonment, his faith in Christ never wavered. Be like Peter oh ye atheist. Jesus is coming soon 1 Like |

Jesus asking Simon Peter 3 times.... I think Jesus wanted Simon Peter to take the matter seriously, by letting Peter know that the ministry is not a JOKING MATTER. |

sonmvayina: And why not? Why didn't Adam and Eve obey God? Why do some mother's desert their babies? Why do some husbands and fathers desert their wives and children? Simple enough! Human nature! Even you, why do you question Jesus story written by many prophets with different families, backgrounds, tribes etc. Even Paul and others who became Christians after Jesus death and resurrection wrote of him as a trained Lawyer |
