Some people say that the words of the Lord Jesus at John 5:24 were spoken to obedient Jews. But let us see if that is true:
"But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work. 18. Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God. 19. Then answered Jesus and said unto them.... Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life" (Jn.5:17-19,24).
For some reason I cannot believe that the Jews who wanted to kill the Lord Jesus were obedient Jews.
This just proves that some people will believe anything, no matter how ridiculous!
