8 9 10 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, “Feed my lambs.”
16
He then said to him 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, “Tend my sheep.”
17
He said to him the third time, “Simon, son of John, do you love me?” Peter was distressed that he had said to him a third time, “Do you love me?” and he said to him, “Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you.” (Jesus) said to him, “Feed my sheep.

Nice copy and paste. What is your point? We are talking about salvation. Are you defending
“professional” Christians? Im not following you.

Fatima - thank you!!

The verse in question to me is clear.

Jesus Christ is saying to Simon that he should care for fellow believers. He should help guide them, and love them.

Looks pretty simple to me.

And the “feed my sheep” looks to mean with spiritual food, not that Simon should become a cook in a large kitchen.

And I think the catarac person is very disruptive and wants to do nothing but attack others. Catarac, you’re a new member. You need to understand that it is not good form to wildly attack people here with crazy accusations.

And I am a mrs! ;-) Little jeremiah is my second screen name - I am small, trying to tell the truth in my small way, and Jeremiah in the Bible also was not liked or accepted by hardly anyone, even his own family (which happened to me, due to my comments on FR, got in a huge problem with family who found me here. Two still won’t talk to me, 7 years later.)
