John 8:38-47 I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and you do that which you have seen with your father.… The nature of the soil must be changed before the heavenly plant will thrive. Plants grow not upon stones, nor this heavenly plant in a stony heart. A stone receives the rain upon it, not into it. It falls off or dries up, but a new heart, a heart of flesh, sucks in the dew of the Word, and grows thereby. (S. Charnock.) Parallel Verses KJV: I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father. |
