*LOVEST THOU ME...?*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs."* (John 21: 15 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
_Restoration and Redemption_
This conversation between Jesus and Peter takes place after Peter's denial of Jesus during the crucifixion. Jesus' question, "Lovest thou me more than these?" (John 21:15), is an opportunity for Peter to redeem himself and reaffirm his love for Jesus. By asking Peter to confirm his love, Jesus is restoring their relationship and preparing Peter for a new role.
_Commission and Responsibility_
Jesus' response to Peter's affirmation, "Feed my lambs" (John 21:15), is a commission to care for and nurture Jesus' followers. This command emphasizes the importance of servant leadership and responsibility. As Peter is entrusted with this task, he is reminded that his love for Jesus must be demonstrated through action and service to others.
_Love and Obedience_
This passage highlights the connection between love and obedience. Jesus' command to "feed my lambs" is a direct result of Peter's affirmation of love. This demonstrates that true love for Jesus is not just emotional or verbal, but also practical and obedient. By obeying Jesus' command, Peter is demonstrating his love and commitment to Jesus and His followers.
