John 6:60 Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, this is a hard saying; who can hear it? 61 When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you?
[Special testimonies Oct 3 1900 par 6] Those who believe in Him as a personal Savior, those who work His works, receiving His words and practicing His principles, are eating the bread of life. Christ's lessons are their food and drink. They constantly seek to do Christ's will. Under all circumstances they strive to do as He would do. They look to Him who is the Author and Finisher of their faith, inquiring earnestly, What would Jesus do? What words would He speak?
Christ's Word is the bread of life and the water of salvation. Trust in its fulness comes to us through constant communion with God. By it we gain spiritual strength. Christ supplies the life-blood of the heart, and the Holy Spirit gives nerve power. Begotten again unto a lively hope, imbued with the quickening power of a new nature, the soul is enabled to rise higher and still higher.
1st John 2: 2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. 3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. 5 But whoso keeps his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. 6 He that saith he abides in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
John 6:63 It is the spirit that quickens; the flesh profits nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
