John 8:38-47 I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and you do that which you have seen with your father.… If a child were far away in India, and he had not heard from home for some time, and he at last received a letter, how sweet it would be! It comes from father. How pleased he is to get it! But suppose a messenger should come and say, "I come from your father," why, he would at once feel the deepest interest in him. Would you shut your door against your father's messenger? No: but you would say, "Come in, though it be in the middle of the night, I shall always have an ear for you." Shall we not thus welcome Jesus? (C. H. Spurgeon.) Parallel Verses KJV: I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father. |
