John 7: 37b-38 …Jesus stood and said in a loud voice,’ Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.”‘ A faith filled Christian cannot help but both live and tell others of the wonders of their Savior. Jesus told people of Himself, of His Father and of the Holy Spirit. It is now your and my responsibility to tell others the truths of living water. What a privilege!

John 7:7 “The world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify that its works are evil.” Jesus, the perfect Son of God, the Savior of mankind, was hated. That statement seems impossible. Why? The world loves greed, sexual pollution, abortion, worshipping false gods and the list goes on. Jesus spoke and lived condemning such behavior. The world didn’t and doesn’t want to hear the truth of how corruption ruins lives and therefore He was hated. None of us should fall into the traps of the world.

John 6:68 “Simon Peter answered him,’Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.”‘ Peter asked the same question you and I would ask–the most important question man can ask. The answer is so obvious to every faith filled Christian—there is nowhere else, other than Jesus. The world is lost in it’s answer. The question—where does one go for truth?—I don’t really know– wherever you want because there is no known absolute truth. The answer; however, is an easy one in the Christian world–we camly and confidently adhere to the absolute truths of our Savior. Have a great weekend.

John 6:66 “From this time many of his disciples turned back and no longer followed him.” The impossible happened. Jesus explained truth and many would not believe. There is no difference today. Many reject God and His truth. The most important truth of our universe and the truth which gains eternal life is not only ignored, it is denied. Can man be more foolish? It’s like looking into a mirror and denying the reflection of yourself—you conclude it’s someone else. Thank God that He has led you to faithfulness and eternal salvation. There is nothing better.

John 6:58 “Your ancestors ate manna and died, but whoever feeds on this bread will live forever.” Jesus always speaks words of absolute truth. As you and I eat food we know we are nourishing our body, but we also know, even though we eat nutritiously, we will die. Jesus tells us—-no, you won’t die—believe in Me and live gloriously forever. Now, God has given you and me a free will—adopt the words of Jesus–learn of Him–develop a close relationship with Him—enjoy being His loved, adopted child or hope for the best, whatever that is.
