John:21:1-14
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Later on ,
Jesus revealed himself again to the disciples at the Sea of Tiberias ,
and he revealed himself in this way .
*
Simon Peter ,
Thomas (
called the Twin ),
Nathaniel from Cana in Galilee ,
the sons of Zebedee ,
and two of his other disciples were together .
*
Simon Peter said to them , “
I '
m going fishing .”
They told him , “
We '
ll go with you ,
too .”
So they went out and got into the boat but didn '
t catch a thing that night .
*
Just as dawn was breaking ,
Jesus stood on the shore .
The disciples didn '
t realize it was Jesus .
*
Jesus said to them , “
Children ,
you don '
t have any fish ,
do you ?”
They answered him , “
No .”
*
He told them ,“
Throw the net on the right hand side of the boat ,
and you '
ll catchsome .”
So they threw it out and were unable to haul it in because it was so full of fish .
*
That disciple whom Jesus kept loving said to Peter , “
It '
s the Lord !”
When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord ,
he put back on his clothes ,
for he was practically naked ,
and jumped into the sea .
*
But the other disciples came in the boat ,
dragging the net full of fish .
They were only about a hundred yards away from the shore .
*
When they arrived at the shore ,
they saw a charcoal fire with fish lying on it ,
and some bread .
*
Jesus told them ,“
Bring me some of the fish you '
ve just caught .”
*
So Simon Peter went aboard and dragged the net ashore .
It was full of large fish —
153 of them .
And although there were so many of them ,
the net was not torn .
*
Then Jesus said to them ,“
Come ,
have breakfast .”
Now none of the disciples dared to ask him , “
Who are you ?”,
for they knew it was the Lord .
*
Jesus went and took the bread and gave it to them ,
and did the same with the fish .
*
This was now the third time that Jesus revealed himself to the disciples after he had been raised from the dead .
