Ringer! Why Reggie, Jesus was Resurrected at this point. Simon, son of John, is receiving his marching orders from Christ Himself! He is being told what his mission is. He has learned his lesson well. The Church declares this as Peter receiving his commission: "The primacy was given to Peter directly and immediately. So the Church has always understood--and so Vatican I defined: 'We therefore teach and declare that according to the testimony of the Gospel, the primacy of jurisdiction over the universal Church of God was immediately and directly promised and given to Blessed Peter the Apostle by Christ Our Lord. [...] And it was Simon Peter alone that Jesus after His Resurrection bestowed the jurisdiction of chief pastor and ruler over all his fold in the words "Feed my lambs; feed my sheep.' (see Pastor aeternus, Chap. 1; Lumen Gentium, 18)
Read John carefully. Jesus has much to say to the Apostles at the Last Supper but He tells Peter that his job is to keep his brother's united. Christ is telling him he will be sifted like wheat and that it is Peter's job to continue the unicity of the Church.
That is what is so sad about the proliferation of more and more "confessions" as the Authority given to Peter is ignored and everyone can now go in search of his own truth in a Bible which they interpret personally.
