No. The Bible says it was Peter not John who denied Jesus:
John 13:37,38 "Lord, why can't I follow you now?" asked Peter. "I am ready to die for you!"
Jesus answered, "Are you really ready to die for me? I am telling you the truth: before the rooster crows you will say three times that you do not know me.
verse 37 - Typically over enthusiastic, Peter expressed willingness to die for the Lord. He thought he could endure martyrdom by his own strength.
verse 38 - Jesus checks his "zeal without knowledge" by telling Peter something he himself did not know, that is, before the night was ended, he would deny the Lord three times. Thus Peter was reminded of his weakness, cowardice, and inability to follow the Lord for even a few hours by his own power.
Answer/
John supported the distressed Virgin Mary as Jesus was being crucified and comforted her as she walked weeping through the streets.
In so doing, John risked charges incurring the death penalty for being seen as Jesus' follower and so was not avoiding possible death - see The Lament of the Virgin.
Yes, according to The Bible, John (also known as Peter) denied Jesus three times before the rooster crowed, as Jesus foretold. This denial happened out of fear for his own life, as he did not want to be associated with Jesus in the face of potential persecution.
No, there is no specific mention in the Bible of Jesus calling his disciples before he cured his mother-in-law. The Bible records that Jesus called his disciples early in his ministry, and the healing of his mother-in-law is mentioned later in the Gospels.
The disciples were chosen by Jesus in the following order: Simon Peter and Andrew James and John Philip Bartholomew (Nathanael) Matthew (Levi) Thomas James, son of Alphaeus Thaddeus (Jude) Simon the Zealot Judas Iscariot
Jesus viewed His suffering and death as necessary to fulfill God's plan for salvation. He willingly accepted his fate, knowing that his sacrifice would bring redemption and forgiveness of sins to humanity. Jesus demonstrated immense love and obedience to God through his willingness to endure such suffering.
Jesus did not explicitly establish a specific "holy order" in the traditional sense. However, he did establish the foundation of the Christian faith and tasked his disciples with spreading his teachings. The concept of a hierarchical church structure developed later in Christian history.
A:According to Mark's Gospel, Jesus went with Peter and James and John to the Garden of Gethsemane, where Jesus went to pray. His disciples, Peter, James and John, fell asleep. "Could you not watch one hour?" Jesus asked. The process was repeated two more times. The disciples could not watch one, two or three hours. These time intervals are so precise and fit into Mark's sequence for the last twenty four hours in the life of Jesus, that the story is not so much about the disciples sleeping but about counting out the time interval between 9 o'clock and midnight, when Jesus was betrayed. Mark breaks up the last twenty four hours into eight intervals of exactly three hours each: We start with the Last Supper, which began "when it was evening" (Mark 14:17), or when the sun went down: approximately 6 pm.Mark knew that the duration of the Passover meal was three hours and that it concluded with the singing of a hymn, so the first thing Jesus did was to sing a hymn with his disciples. Then Mark says, "And when they had sung a hymn they went out to the Mount of Olives". It was about 9 p.m.Mark then has Jesus and the disciples go to the Garden of Gethsemane, where Jesus went to pray. It was here that the disciples were not able to remain awake. "Could you not watch one hour?" Jesus asked. The process was repeated two more times. The disciples could not watch one, two or three hours. It was now midnight.The act of betrayal, the darkest deed in human history, came next, occurring at the stroke of midnight.At 3:00 a.m., Jesus was led away for a trial before the high priest and other senior priests and elders. This governing body then judged him, on the basis of his messianic claim, to be worthy of death.The watch of the night between 3 am and 6 am was called cockcrow. Peter's threefold denial of Jesus, once each hour until the cock crowed, marked the end of that phase of the night. That makes it 6 am."As soon as it was morning", which would be 6 am, Jesus was led by the chief priests, scribes and elders to Pontius Pilate for judgement."It was the third hour when they crucified him," that is, 9 o'clock.When "the sixth hour had come" (12 noon), darkness covered the whole earth, reflecting the betrayal at 12 midnight.After three hours of darkness, at 3 p.m., Jesus cried out and gave up the ghost.Joseph of Arimathea then asked Pilate for the body of Jesus, so that he could be buried before the Sabbath began. Jesus was buried in the final period from 3 to 6 pm, before the sun went down.This is a chiastic structure in which the first set of four period is mirrored in the second set. Between 9 and 12 in the evening, Jesus agonised in Gethsemene while the disciples were spiritually absent in sleep. Between 9 and 12 the next morning, Jesus suffered on the cross while the disciples were absent.The later gospels, now known to have been dependent on this account, blur Mark's chronological order, which their authors did not see as important. John's Gospel omits the passage in which Jesus prays and agonises in Gethsemane and then has the beloved disciple at the foot of the cross, but Mark makes it clear that those of Jesus acquaintance watched from afar.

No, there is no specific mention in the Bible of Jesus calling his disciples before he cured his mother-in-law. The Bible records that Jesus called his disciples early in his ministry, and the healing of his mother-in-law is mentioned later in the Gospels.
At mathew 28:19,20 Jesus commissioned his followers to, "go and make disciples of people of all the nations baptizing them in the name of the father, son, and holy spirit...."
First, Jesus called 12 deciples. But, after Judas Iscariot betrayed Jesus and hung himself, the remaiming 11 disciples elected a new disciple, Matthias. As well as the 12, there were 72 others whom Jesus used to send out to the surrounding villagers to proclaim his coming. Add to these the women (Mary Magdalene, Mary and Martha of Bethany, Salome etc) and the many whom Jesus healed and taught who decided to follow him, and by the time of his death thousands were already followers.
He told them not to worry. "Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me"
Jesus met the disciples on the road from Jerusalem to Emmaus, a village about 7 miles away. On this road, Jesus prevented his disciples from recognizing him in order that they might believe in him according to the scriptures rather than based on his physical recognition. Once they did recognize him in the scriptures and broke bread with him, their eyes were opened to recognize him for who he truly was, and they remarked about how their hearts burned when he opened to them the scriptures. This account is found in Luke 24:13-49.
Jesus brought the message of eternal life to his followers. His death and resurrection made it possible for his followers to be with God. Death in this world is not the end for those who believe.
Pentecost was the event that empowered the disciples of Jesus to carry out the great commission. Luke 24:44-49 records Jesus' meeting with his disciples after his resurrection. Here he connected the things that had happened to him, namely his suffering, death, and resurrection, with the greater plan of "repentance and forgiveness of sins ... to be proclaimed in his name to all nations..." (v. 47) that was being given to the disciples. He added that the disciples would be "clothed with power" as promised by the Father in order to carry out their purpose. He told them to wait in the city until they had been "clothed with power from on high" (v. 49b) They would only be able to carry out the great commission by this power. As an analogy: if the disciples were robots programmed with the great commission, Pentecost was when God but their batteries in and gave them the power to do it!
