His Life: A Complete Story in the Words of the Four Gospels
Barton, William E. (William Eleazar)
Jesus Christ -- Biography
Peter, turning about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following;
who also leaned back on his breast at the supper, and said, "Lord, who
is he that betrayeth thee?" Peter therefore seeing him saith to Jesus,
"Lord, and what shall this man do?"
Jesus saith unto him, "If I will that he tarry till I come, what is
that to thee? Follow thou me."
This saying therefore went forth among the brethren, that that
disciple should not die: yet Jesus said not unto him, that he should
not die, but, "If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to
thee?"
THE APPEARANCE TO THE ELEVEN ON THE MOUNTAIN.
The eleven disciples went into Galilee, unto the mountain where Jesus
had appointed them. And when they saw him, they worshipped him; but
some doubted. And Jesus came to them and spake unto them, saying, "All
authority hath been given unto me in heaven and on earth. Go ye
therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in
the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit: teaching
them to observe all things whatsoever I commanded you: and lo, I am
with you always, even unto the end of the world."
THE LAST APPEARANCE AND ASCENSION.
And he said unto them, "These are my words which I spake unto you,
while I was yet with you, that all things must needs be fulfilled,
which are written in the law of Moses, and the prophets, and the
psalms, concerning me."
Then opened he their mind, that they might understand the scriptures;
and he said unto them, "Thus it is written, that the Christ should
suffer, and rise again from the dead the third day; and that
repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name unto
all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem. Ye are witnesses of these
things. And behold, I send forth the promise of my Father upon you:
but tarry ye in the city, until ye be clothed with power from on
high."
And he led them out until they were over against Bethany: and he
lifted up his hands, and blessed them.
And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he parted from them, and
was carried up into heaven. And they worshipped him, and returned to
Jerusalem with great joy: and were continually in the temple,
blessing God.

MANY OTHER SIGNS THEREFORE DID JESUS IN THE PRESENCE OF THE DISCIPLES
WHICH ARE NOT WRITTEN IN THIS BOOK, BUT THESE ARE WRITTEN, THAT YE MAY
BELIEVE THAT JESUS IS THE CHRIST, THE SON OF GOD; AND THAT BELIEVING
YE MAY HAVE LIFE IN HIS NAME.
