John: Jesus doesn’t compare Christians!/Jeff Struecker

Big Idea:  Jesus doesn’t compare Christians! John 21:20-25 Jesus doesn’t compare Christians! 1. Don’t compare yourself. John 21: 20-23 So Peter turned around and saw the disciple Jesus loved following them, the one who had leaned back against Jesus at the supper and asked, “Lord, who is the one that’s going to betray you?” When Peter saw him, he said to Jesus, “Lord, what about him?” “If I want him to remain until I come,” Jesus answered, “what is that to you? As for you, follow me.” So this rumor spread to the brothers and sisters that this disciple would not die. Yet Jesus did not tell him that he would not die, but, “If I want him to remain until I come, what is that to you?” 2. Every disciple is different. John 21: 24-25 This is the disciple who testifies to these things and who wrote them down. We know that his testimony is true. And there are also many other things that Jesus did, which, if every one of them were written down, I suppose not even the world itself could contain the books that would be written. Next Steps: I need to start a walk with Jesus today. I will focus on my walk with Jesus next year.
