Today's Verse
This verse tells us that God’s words are the bread of life and eternal life and that what we need to live is the supply of God’s words. God is the source of our life, so in believing in God only by pursuing the truth can we be sated in our spirit, can our life grow, and shall we never thirst. If we believe in God but do not pursue the truth, and if we only pursue literal knowledge of the Bible, wealth, material things, and carnal pleasures, we will not gain anything from our belief in God including life, and ultimately we will be abandoned and eliminated by God. Just as God says, “God Himself is life, and the truth, and His life and truth coexist. Those who are incapable of gaining the truth shall never gain life. Without the guidance, support, and provision of the truth, you shall only gain letters, doctrines, and, moreover, death. God’s life is ever-present, and His truth and life coexist. If you cannot find the source of truth, then you will not gain the nourishment of life; if you cannot gain the provision of life, then you will surely have no truth, and so apart from imaginations and conceptions, the entirety of your body shall be nothing but flesh, your stinking flesh.”
