If you're back today, it most likely means you understand what I'm trying to do. As you know, I've been drawing a lot of fire. But, I've been getting a lot of support too. Last night I got an email from a pre-tribber. This person said: I wanted to give you an email of support. I appreciate your reports, and I have pointed a lot of friends toward your sight. I believe in a pre-trib rapture, but I also believe in being prepared for the worst-case scenario. You know what? This person really made it all worth while. You see, most of those who are so angry with me have ministries of some kind based on the pre-trib position. But, as indicated above, there are others who understand what I'm doing. As this person said, I just think we should prepare for the "worst-case scenario." And, even though I can't seem to get any help from the Bible prophecy establishment, I do get plenty of support from those who are the most important to me. So, today's commentary is for the rest of us. When they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon, son of John, do you love Me more than these?" He said to Him, "Yes, Lord; You know that I love You." He said to him, "Tend My lambs." He said to him again a second time, "Simon, son of John, do you love Me?" He said to Him, "Yes, Lord; You know that I love You." He said to him, "Shepherd My sheep." He said to him the third time, "Simon, son of John, do you love Me?" Peter was grieved because He said to him the third time, "Do you love Me?" And he said to Him, "Lord, You know all things; You know that I love You." Jesus said to him, "Tend My sheep" (John 21:15-17 New American Standard Bible.) 08-10-04
