    There are athletic passages both in Greek philosophy and in the Bible that say suffering can be useful like an athlete in training, because it can aid in the growth of virtue. A meme: They say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. At this point, my dear, I should be able to bench-press a ...read more

    "Why John Did Outrun Peter"

    Contributed by Jerry Depoy on Apr 11, 2005
    based on 25 ratings
     | 9,323 views

    When John was running, the text indicates he was running with the mindset of “He loves me, he loves me, he loves me.”

    Title of the Message: “Why John outran Peter?” John records that he outran Peter to the empty tomb? This message is speculation, but I believe that the trues are very acurate. In context John records that he is, “The disciple whom Jesus loved.” When Peter was running to the tomb, no ...read more
