Bible Question: What was it that reduced all the crowds (John 6:2, Luke 14:25) down to just a few in John 6:66? |
Bible Answer: Nolan there were a few reasons why the crowds dwindled: 1)Many realized that Jesus wasn't the conquering king that they had expected. 2)Some were upset because they wouldn't give in to their self-centered requests. 3)Jesus emphasized faith not works. 4)His teachings were hard to understand. 5)Many of his words and teachings were offensive. prayon |
