An ordinary young fisherman whose relationship with Jesus of Nazareth turned him into a bestselling historian, world traveler, and Roman exile.
Meet John, ex-fisherman turned world-renowned author. He was mentored by Jesus of Nazareth along with eleven other guys. John, his brother James, and Peter were Jesus’ best friends, who shared experiences with him that the other disciples never witnessed.
John would tell you that true and eternal life only comes through believing in Jesus and knowing him.
John looked on while Jesus was crucified for the sins of the world. But three days later he ran to Jesus’ empty tomb to find his friend alive again.
John lived to tell about Jesus, the Son of God, speaking all over the Middle East about him and authoring five of the books in the Bible.
While suffering exile at the end of his life on the island of Patmos under Emperor Domitian for spreading the message of Jesus, God gave John a vision of the end of all things. He wrote down his vision, which we find in our Bibles as the last book, the book of Revelation.
In shape Patmos may be roughly described as forming a crescent, the horns of which face eastward; but its outline is broken up by innumerable promontories enclosing landlocked creeks, so that, when seen from above, it presents somewhat the aspect of a strange polypus. Its length from north to south is about eight miles, and its area is rugged and broken; but the most marked peculiarity is that it is almost divided in two in the middle, for in this part, within a distance of little more than half a mile from one another, are two isthmuses only a few hundred yards wide, and rising but slightly above the sea level. On the southernmost of these the scala is situated, while between the two stands the steep hill on which the acropolis of the Hellenic city was built.
Quoted from his book, "The Islands of the Aegean," which is in the Public Domain.
So Peter turned around and saw the disciple Jesus loved following them, the one who had leaned back against Jesus at the supper and asked, “Lord, who is the one that’s going to betray you?” When Peter saw him, he said to Jesus, “Lord, what about him?”
“If I want him to remain until I come,” Jesus answered, “what is that to you? As for you, follow me.”
So this rumor spread to the brothers and sisters that this disciple would not die. Yet Jesus did not tell him that he would not die, but, “If I want him to remain until I come, what is that to you?”
