192:2.2 [[Jesus]] then turned toward [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]] and asked, " Peter, do you [[love]] me? " Peter answered, " Lord, you know I [[love]] you with all my [[soul]]. " Then said [[Jesus]]: " If you love me, [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]], feed my lambs. Do not neglect to minister to the [[weak]], the [[poor]], and the [[young]]. [[Preach]] the [[gospel]] without [[fear]] or [[favor]]; [[remember]] always that [[God]] is no respecter of [[persons]]. Serve your fellow men even as I have served you; [[forgive]] your fellow [[mortals]] even as I have forgiven you. Let [[experience]] teach you the [[value]] of [[meditation]] and the [[power]] of [[intelligent]] [[reflection]]. "

192:2.3 After they had walked along a little farther, [[the Master]] turned to [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]] and asked, " Peter, do you really [[love]] me? " And then said Simon, " Yes, Lord, you [[know]] that I love you. " And again said Jesus: " Then take [[good]] [[care]] of my sheep. Be a [[good]] and a true [[shepherd]] to the flock. [[Betray]] not their [[confidence]] in you. Be not taken by [[surprise]] at the [[enemy]]'s hand. Be on guard at all times—watch and [[pray]].

192:2.4 When they had gone a few steps farther, [[Jesus]] turned to [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]] and, for the third time, asked, " Peter, do you truly [[love]] me? " And then [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]], being slightly [[grieved]] at [[the Master]]'s seeming distrust of him, said with considerable [[feeling]], " Lord, you know [[all things]], and therefore do you [[know]] that I really and truly [[love]] you. " Then said [[Jesus]]: " Feed my sheep. Do not [[forsake]] the flock. Be an example and an [[inspiration]] to all your fellow [[shepherds]]. [[Love]] the flock as I have loved you and [[devote]] yourself to their [[welfare]] even as I have [[devoted]] my life to your welfare. And follow after me even to the end.

192:2.5 [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]] took this last [[statement]] [[literally]]—that he should continue to follow after him—and turning to [[Jesus]], he pointed to [[John, the Apostle|John]], asking, " If I follow on after you, what shall this man do? " And then, [[perceiving]] that [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]] had misunderstood his [[words]], [[Jesus]] said: " [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]], be not concerned about what your brethren shall do. If I will that [[John, the Apostle|John]] should tarry after you are gone, even until I come back, what is that to you? Only make sure that you follow me.

192:2.6 This remark spread among the brethren and was [[received]] as a [[statement]] by [[Jesus]] to the [[effect]] that [[John, the Apostle|John]] would not die before [[the Master]] returned, as many [[thought]] and [[hoped]], to [[establish]] [[the kingdom]] in [[power]] and [[glory]]. It was this [[interpretation]] of what [[Jesus]] said that had much to do with getting [[Simon Zelotes]] back into [[service]], and keeping him at [[work]].

192:2.7 When they returned to the [[others]], [[Jesus]] went for a walk and talk with [[Andrew, the Apostle|Andrew]] and [[James, the Apostle|James]]. When they had gone a short distance, [[Jesus]] said to [[Andrew, the Apostle|Andrew]], " Andrew, do you [[trust]] me? " And when the former [[chief]] of [[the apostles]] heard [[Jesus]] ask such a [[question]], he stood still and answered, " Yes, Master, of a [[certainty]] I [[trust]] you, and you know that I do. " Then said [[Jesus]]: " [[Andrew, the Apostle|Andrew]], if you trust me, [[trust]] your brethren more—even [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]]. I once trusted you with the [[leadership]] of your brethren. Now must you [[trust]] [[others]] as I leave you to go to [[the Father]]. When your brethren begin to scatter abroad because of bitter [[persecutions]], be a considerate and [[wise]] [[counselor]] to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_the_Just James] my [[brother]] in the flesh when they put heavy [[burdens]] upon him which he is not qualified by [[experience]] to bear. And then go on [[trusting]], for I will not [[fail]] you. When you are through on [[earth]], you shall come to me. "

192:2.8 Then [[Jesus]] turned to [[James, the Apostle|James]], asking, " James, do you [[trust]] me? " And of course James replied, " Yes, Master, I [[trust]] you with all my [[heart]]. " Then said [[Jesus]]: " [[James, the Apostle|James]], if you [[trust]] me more, you will be less impatient with your brethren. If you will [[trust]] me, it will help you to be [[kind]] to the brotherhood of [[believers]]. Learn to weigh the [[consequences]] of your sayings and your doings. [[Remember]] that the reaping is in [[accordance]] with the [[sowing]]. [[Pray]] for [[tranquillity]] of [[spirit]] and cultivate [[patience]]. These [[graces]], with [[living]] [[faith]], shall sustain you when the hour comes to drink the cup of [[sacrifice]]. But never be dismayed; when you are through on [[earth]], you shall also come to be with me. "

192:2.12 And then, speaking to [[Matthew, the Apostle|Matthew]], [[the Master]] asked, " Matthew, do you have it in your [[heart]] to [[obey]] me? " Matthew answered, " Yes, Lord, I am fully [[dedicated]] to doing your will. " Then said [[the Master]]: " Matthew, if you would [[obey]] me, go forth to [[teach]] all peoples this [[gospel]] of [[the kingdom]]. No longer will you serve your brethren the [[material]] [[things]] of life; henceforth you are also to [[proclaim]] the good news of [[spiritual]] [[salvation]].

192:2.13 Then he walked and talked with the [[the twins|Alpheus twins, James and Judas]], and [[speaking]] to both of them, he asked, " [[the twins|James and Judas]], do you [[believe]] in me? " And when they both answered, " Yes, Master, we do [[believe]], " he said: " I will soon leave you. You see that I have already left you in the [[flesh]].

192:2.14 It was almost ten o'clock when [[Jesus]] returned from his [[visit]] with the [[Alpheus twins]], and as he left [[the apostles]], he said: " [[Farewell]], until I meet you all on the [[Paper 140 - The Ordination of the Twelve|mount of your ordination]] tomorrow at noontime. " When he had thus [[spoken]], he vanished from their [[sight]].
