“A Learner.” Luke 13:23, 24 gives us our Lord's reply to a curious enquirer, a reply designed to make curiosity as to others give place to anxiety about himself. In John 6:37, our Lord declares himself to be the servant of the Father's gracious purpose in receiving all who came to Him, inasmuch as none came save such as were drawn by the Father. Both these passages are sadly misused through lack of attention to the context.
