What Is That To You?


John 21:21-23 ESV
21 When Peter saw him, he said to Jesus, “Lord, what about this man? ” 22 Jesus said to him, “If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you? You follow me! ” 23 So the saying spread abroad among the brothers that this disciple was not to die; yet Jesus did not say to him that he was not to die, but, “If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you? ” 

What the Lord does with or for another person is more the Lord's business than ours.  Here is an example of something misunderstood and spread as what was said.  How many times has this and does this happen?  It is not up to us to judge or compare ourselves with others.  Let us work out our own salvation as given by God.  That should keep us busy enough.
