Jesus the Judge
Judgment is all about authority. Christ has an authority that is not up for a vote.
The third time he said to him, “Simon son of John, do you love me?” Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, “Do you love me?” He said, “Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you.” Jesus said, “Feed my sheep” (John 21:17).

Then Jesus told him, “Follow me” (John 21:15-19 TLB).
