Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus replied, “Where I am going, you cannot follow me now, but you will follow later.”

When John’s two disciples heard him say this, they followed Jesus.

A large crowd was following him because they were observing the miraculous signs he was performing on the sick.

They will never follow a stranger, but will run away from him, because they do not recognize the stranger’s voice.”

My sheep listen to my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.

Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two disciples who heard what John said and followed Jesus.

On the next day Jesus wanted to set out for Galilee. He found Philip and said to him, “Follow me.”

When he has brought all his own sheep out, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they recognize his voice.

Peter said to him, “Lord, why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you!”

Then Simon Peter, who had been following him, arrived and went right into the tomb. He saw the strips of linen cloth lying there,

(Now Jesus said this to indicate clearly by what kind of death Peter was going to glorify God.) After he said this, Jesus told Peter, “Follow me.”

Jesus replied, “If I want him to live until I come back, what concern is that of yours? You follow me!”

Jesus turned around and saw them following and said to them, “What do you want?” So they said to him, “Rabbi” (which is translated Teacher), “where are you staying?”

Then Jesus spoke out again, “I am the light of the world. The one who follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”

Then the people who were with Mary in the house consoling her saw her get up quickly and go out. They followed her, because they thought she was going to the tomb to weep there.

If anyone wants to serve me, he must follow me, and where I am, my servant will be too. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.

Simon Peter and another disciple followed them as they brought Jesus to Annas. (Now the other disciple was acquainted with the high priest, and he went with Jesus into the high priest’s courtyard.)

Peter turned around and saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following them. (This was the disciple who had leaned back against Jesus’ chest at the meal and asked, “Lord, who is the one who is going to betray you?”)
