Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
It is written in the prophets, and they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.

It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.

Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father. Christ is “of God” in a very peculiar sense. He is not God’s creature, but God’s Son He is of the very essence of God, and therefore he knows what God is as we never can know.

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Verily, verily, I say unto you, — Jesus uttered this great truth with very special emphasis: “Verily, verily, I say unto you,” — Joh_6:47. He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.
