Many of us are not thirsty for God because we have quenched our thirst at other fountains!
Erwin W. Lutzer
If you don’t come, the reason is not because you are not elected. Not at all. The reason you don’t come is that you’re not thirsty; that is, you don’t think you need a Savior.
J. Vernon McGee
Are we salty enough to make people thirsty for Jesus?
R. Kent Hughes
Our Lord was inviting thirsty souls to come to Him for spiritual, eternal, life-giving water, instead of the physical, temporal water of the ceremony.
John F. MacArthur
