Will Ye Also Go Away?

John 6:67
There are many people today who claim to be followers of God and Jesus Christ, His Son. However, there is a distinctive character that separates the true follower from the false or superficial professor of Christ. Just as it was during the time when Jesus walked upon this earth in the body of his flesh, so it is today. There are those who remain and those who fall away. Jesus is still asking this question today, “Will ye also go away?” Do you know how you will respond and why?

when troubles come into your life

The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust In him.
Nahum 1:7

We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;
Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;
II Corinthians 4:8,9

PEACE IN THESE TROUBLED TIMES

We cannot pick up a newspaper, turn on the radio or television for any length of time and evade the word “peace.” There seems to he trouble of some kind raging on every hand, and everyone is in search of peace. We usually hear the word used in reference to world or national peace, but we are convinced that we, as individuals, are constantly in search of a personal peace.

If we were asked what we wanted from life, most of us would answer, happiness. The difference in individuals would determine the things considered important to bring this happiness about. If we analyzed our feelings, couldn’t this happiness we desire also be called contentment or peace?
