Then those men, when they had seen the sign that Jesus did, said, "This is truly the Prophet who is to come into the world." Therefore when Jesus perceived that they were about to come and take him by force to make him king, he departed again to the mountain by himself alone" (John 6:13-15).
The men were right that his was the profit that was to come into the world. But their response to that revelation was wrong. They did not comprehend that Jesus had to suffer death first. Many centuries would come and go before he will rule on earth.
How often do we understand a truth but misapply it? We are wise to remain humbly teachable.
