John 14:24

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

John 14:24. He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father’s which sent me.

You see that the Lord Jesus Christ does not profess to be a great original thinker, but he speaks as the Messenger sent by the Father, and unless we also are commissioned and taught by the Father, of what value will our poor feeble thoughts be? Our only power lies in the fact that we do not utter our own thoughts, but the truths which have been taught to us by the Holy Spirit. To some, this may look like weakness, but it is real strength.
