John 13:8. Peter saith unto him, Those shalt never wash my feet.
That is just like Peter. If John had not told us who it was that said this, we should have known that it was Peter. He was always in such a hurry, and he spoke so quickly, that he made many mistakes, yet he was always so honest and so true that his Master forgave his faults, and helped him to correct them.
John 13:8. He answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.
If Christ does not cleanse us, we do not belong to him. If he does not, day by day, exercise a purifying influence over us, we are not his.
