Afterwards, Jesus revealed himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias. He revealed himself like this. Simon Peter, Thomas (called Didymus, \u201cthe twin\u201d), Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two more of his disciples were together. Simon Peter said to them, \u201cI\u2019m going fishing.\u201d

They said to him, \u201cWe\u2019ll come with you.\u201d They went out and got into the boat. That night, they caught nothing. But as daybreak came, Jesus stood on the shore; although the disciples didn\u2019t know that it was Jesus. So Jesus said to them, \u201cHey kids, have you got any fish?\u201d

They answered him, \u201cNo.\u201d

He said to them, \u201cCast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.\u201d

So they cast it, and now they weren\u2019t able to haul it in because of the huge numbers of fish. Then the disciple Jesus loved said to Peter, \u201cIt\u2019s the Lord!\u201d

When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his coat (for he only had his underwear on), and launched himself straight into the sea. But as they weren\u2019t too far from land, about 100 metres away, the other disciples came in the boat, dragging the net full of fish. So when they got out onto the land, they saw a charcoal fire there, with fish cooking on it, and bread. Jesus said to them, \u201cBring some of the fish you have just caught.\u201d

Simon Peter went up, and hauled the net in to land, full of 153 great fish. Even though there were so many, the net was not torn.

Jesus said to them, \u201cCome and have breakfast!\u201d

None of the disciples dared ask him, \u201cWho are you?\u201d knowing that it was the Lord.

Then Jesus came, took the bread and gave it to them, and did the same with the fish. This was now the third time that Jesus was revealed to his disciples after he had risen from the dead. So when they had eaten breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, \u201cSimon, son of John, do you love me selflessly, more than these?\u201d

He said to him, \u201cYes, Lord; you know that I love you like a friend.\u201d

He said to him, \u201cFeed my lambs.\u201d He asked him a second time, \u201cSimon, son of John, do you love me selflessly?\u201d

He said to him, \u201cYes, Lord; you know that I love you like a friend.\u201d

He said to him, \u201cTend my sheep.\u201d He asked him the third time, \u201cSimon, son of John, do you love me like a friend?\u201d

Peter was grieved because he asked him the third time, \u201cDo you love me like a friend?\u201d He said to him, \u201cLord, you know everything. You know that I love you like a friend.\u201d

Jesus said to him, \u201cFeed my sheep. Truly, truly I tell you, when you were young, you dressed yourself, tied your belt and walked wherever you wanted. But when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will tie your belt and carry you where you don\u2019t want to go.\u201d

Now he said this to show by what kind of death Peter would glorify God. After saying this, Jesus said to him, \u201cFollow me.\u201d

Then Peter, turning around, saw a disciple following. It was the one Jesus loved, the one who had also leaned into Jesus at the supper and asked, \u201cLord, who is going to betray you?\u201d Seeing him, Peter said to Jesus, \u201cLord, what about this man?\u201d

Jesus said to him, \u201cIf I want him to stay until I come, what is that to you? You follow me.\u201d So word spread among the brothers that this disciple would not die. But Jesus didn\u2019t say to him that he would not die, but, \u201cIf I want him...
