1 Chronicles 28:9

Psalms 139:1

Psalms 139:23

Jeremiah 17:10

John 2:24-25

Did not commit himself unto them; did not trust himself in their power. He knew what was in man ; he knew the hearts of men, and how, under circumstances, they would act. Of course he knew in all respects how to treat them. Jer 17:10; Re 2:23 ; Joh 1:1 . The perfect knowledge of Jesus Christ gives him the fullest acquaintance with human character, shows him how in all respects to treat men while on earth, and fits him righteously and wisely to award to all the retributions of eternity.

John 21:17

Peter was grieved; the thrice repeated question reminded him of his thrice repeated denial of his Lord.

Feed; communicate spiritual instruction and take care of their souls. Ac 20:28. The most important of all qualifications for a minister of the gospel, and for the right discharge of all duties, is love to Jesus Christ; and those who possess and rightly manifest this, may expect to be rendered eminently useful to themselves and their fellow-men.
