Peter Needs Change From Jesus
Peter: Hey Jesus...
Jesus: Yes, Simon, brother of Andrew?
Peter: You changed my name to Peter, remember? Do you have change for a $20?
Jesus: Of course I remember, Peter. The Son of Man is not one of a forgetful spirit, but of an omniscient one.
Peter: What? Do you have change for a $20 or what?
Jesus: My son, I tell you the Truth, unless you walk by me, you will not see change in what you seek.
Peter: Seriously, Jesus. I need to buy this donkey. It's the only way You can get into Jerusalem.
Jesus: Simon, brother of--
Peter: Peter!
Jesus: I'm Jesus...
Peter: My Lord!
Jesus: Yes?
Peter: Can I just get a straight answer out of you?! For once!
Jesus: My son, for your sake, the path that I walk has been made straight for for you, you who seek the change you desire.
Peter: I just need to break a $20.
Jesus: The seed does not grow unless it has been broken, and so the Son of Man will be.
Peter: What does that even mean?! You can't always talk to me in parables! Just say yes or say no!
Jesus: Ok. There once was a man looking to buy his way into town when he--
Peter: This better answer the question.
Jesus: As I was saying, Simon--
Peter: Peter!
Jesus: I'm Jesus...
Peter: Grrrr
(John walks up)
John: What up G! Hello, Peter...
Jesus: Johnny Boy!
John: Say, Jesus...
Jesus: Yes my son?
John: You got change for a $20?
(Peter condescendingly looks at John as to answer for Jesus)
Jesus: You know I got change! Two 5s and a 10 alright?
Peter: What the Pharisee?!
John: That works!
Peter: You have got to be kidding me.
(Jesus and John exchange money and high-fives as Peter looks on in disgust)
Jesus: You see, Peter, you may not receive your answer in the way you anticipate it...but you will get your answer. I did have change for a $20.
Peter: I--I just don't understand what is expected of me anymore...I need a drink. Can I see that cup?
Jesus: You can not drink from the same cup as me.
Peter: You're doing it again! I don't know if you're literally talking about this cup right here, in your hand! Or if you're talking about a figurative cup of life or death or whatever the Sheol you're talking about!
Jesus: Peter...
Peter: What!
Jesus: You've seen me do miracle after miracle...
Peter: Yeah?! What's your point?!
Jesus: You've seen me turn the blind into men of sight, you've seen me turn the lame into upright men...
Peter: Carry on!
Jesus: Water into wine...
Peter: Ok! Get on with it!
Jesus: Surely...I can turn a $20 into change. O' ye of little faith.
Peter: Sorry, Jesus, I was in denial.
Jesus: This won't be the last time.
Peter: What??
That's as far as this story goes.
However, you could pick back up at John 13:36
