John 6:5-14

The waste of our nation is appalling;--$800,000,000 per year in liquor; $200,000,000 on tobacco, besides all the extravagance of life. Christ bids us save; save the fragments. It is by wasting the fragments that the great wastes occurs. This is of a truth that prophet. The long expected prophet, foretold in De 18:15,16, and referred to by the delegation sent to visit John the Baptist (Joh 1:21). This expected prophet was to be the king of Israel, the head of the kingdom of God on the earth. In other words, they said: "This is the Christ".
