Words of Eternal Life

Plain Bible Study Guides

Read John 6:66-70

After Jesus’ teaching in the synagogue, the crowd left. Rather than panicking about losing so many followers, as we might have been tempted to do, He offered His twelve disciples a chance to leave as well (6:66-67). Peter spoke up and explained why they could not leave: “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have words of eternal life” (6:68). Peter understood what the crowd failed to understand – one must follow the words of Christ if he hopes to have eternal life. We must do the same.
