"Now concerning the things about which you wrote, it is good for a man not to touch a woman. But because of immoralities, each man is to have his own wife, and each woman is to have her own husband."
John 21.1-19
Jesus Appears to Seven Disciples
"Jesus later appeared to his disciples along the shore of Lake
Tiberias. Simon Peter, Thomas the Twin, Nathanael from Cana in
Galilee, and the brothers James and John, were there, together with
two other disciples. Simon Peter said, "I'm going fishing!"
The others said, "We will go with you." They went out in their boat.
But they didn't catch a thing that night.
Early the next morning Jesus stood on the shore, but the disciples did
not realize who he was. Jesus shouted, "Friends, have you caught
anything?"
"No!" they answered.
So he told them, "Let your net down on the right side of your boat,
and you will catch some fish."
They did, and the net was so full of fish that they could not drag it
up into the boat.
Jesus' favorite disciple told Peter, "It's the Lord!" When Simon heard
that it was the Lord, he put on the clothes that...
Luke 8:40-56 (GNT) 40 When Jesus returned to the other side of the lake, the people welcomed him, because they had all been waiting for him. 41 Then a man named Jairus arrived; he was an official in the local synagogue.

And Jesus entered and passed through Jericho. And, behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich. And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature. And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that way. And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at thy house. And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully. And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner. And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord: Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold. And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham. For the Son of man is come to s...
