What if the Apostle John is still living today? What if somewhere on this planet walks a man who once walked with Christ? It is possible, because after He was resurrected Jesus told Simon Peter that He might leave John alive until He returned to earth. Read the gospel of John, Chapter 21, verse 22. That would make John the third-oldest man to ever live. If you want to know who the other two are, read the book.
