jehovah bible: (there is not much difference)

john 21:15 till the end

15 when, now, they had breakfasted, jesus said to simon peter: "simon son of john, do you love me more than these?" He said to him: yes, lord, you know i have affection for you. he said to him: "feed my lambs"
16 again he said to him, a second time: "simon son of john, do you love me? he said to him: "yes, lord, you know i have affection for you." he said to him: "shepherd my litlle sheep."
17 he said to him the third time: "simon son of john, do you have affection for me?" peter became grieved that he said to him the third time: do you have affection fom me?" so he said to him: "lord, you know all things; you are aware that i have affection for you." jesus said to him: "feed my ltlle sheep.
18 most truly i say to you, when you were younger, you used to gird yourself and walk about where you wanted. but when you grow old you will stretch out your hands and another [man] will gird you and bear you where you do not wish"
19 this he said to signify by what sort of death he would glorify god. so, when he had said this, he said to him: "continue following me"
20 upon turning about peter saw the disciple whom jesus used to love following, the one who at the evening meal had also leaned back upon his breast and said: "lord, who is the onebetraying you?"
21 accordingly when he caught sight of him, peter said to jesus: "lord, what will this [man do]?"
22 jesus said to him: "if it is my will for him to remain untill icome, of what concern is that to you? you continue following me"
23 in consequence, this saying went out among the brothers, that that disciple would not die, however, jesus did not say to him that he would not die, but:"if it is my will for him to remain untill i come, of what concern is that to you?"
24 this is the disciple that bears witness about these things and that wrote these things, and we know thatthe witness he gave is treu.
25 there are, in fact, many other things also which jesus did, which, if ever they where written in full detail, i suppose, that the world itself could not contain the scrolls written.

who do you think that disciple is? or what do you think of it/this anyway?
just curious.

i self like best what he says: that it in fact is none of anyone's concern but himself.

You should get a real Bible if you're interested in the truth.

I think it was John! John outlived the other disciples of Jesus. He appears to have died of old age!

I think the point Jesus is making is that we each have our OWN race to run. We have our hurdles to get over, and our trials to endure. We can't compare with others. We don't know what the Lord has for them!
 
The NWT is not an approved translation of this site! Please read our ToS.

Thanks.
 
It is John.

Another question is, what did Jesus mean by this?

John 21:22 Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me.

One possible answer is actually related to End Times. ;)

ok, while i looked up how it's written in other books and there is not so much difference. but i take a not of it. actually i dislike the NWT for it having ten plagaues in egypt for example. and other differences, which i dislike the worst part i find 'Jehovah' which in other bibles is 'the lord'...

It is John.

tell me, i'm curious. is it a long answer:confused::chin

edit: btw it is i was given them jehovah NWT bibles by friends in english and dutch.
i really prefered the clear catholic latest dutch which i again gave away. one day i'll buy it again.
what is the bible used most here by everyone?
