The Destiny of the Beloved Disciple

John 21:20-23

The Destiny of the Beloved Disciple

20
Peter turning about, saw that disciple whom Jesus loved following, who also leaned on his breast at supper and said: Lord, who is he that shall betray thee?
21
Him therefore when Peter had seen, he saith to Jesus: Lord, and what shall this man do?
22
Jesus saith to him: So I will have him to remain till I come, what is it to thee? Follow thou me.
23
This saying therefore went abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should not die. And Jesus did not say to him: He should not die; but: So I will have him to remain till I come, what is it to thee?
