REAL BELIEVERS?

May 26

In this final lesson on the Bread of Life Sermon, Jesus goes from having thousands of followers down to probably only the 11 real believers who become the apostles, certainly not many are left.  This goes to show you that not all people who go to church or follow Jesus are the real thing.  The parable of the four soils or seeds makes this very clear.  This is not four different kinds of Christians in this parable; it is one real Christian who bears fruit and three who never become Christians.  John 15 makes this clear that only real Christians bear fruit, but the others never have any fruit. 1 John 2:19 also speaks to this fact, They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out that they might be made manifest, that none of them were of us. Please don’t reject Christ, He loves you and died for your sins. Don’t let your sin keep you from trusting Christ.

The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you–they are full of the Spirit and life. (John 6:68)
