but you are not willing to come to me so that you may have life.

So Jesus said to the twelve, “You don’t want to go away too, do you?”

I tell you the solemn truth, when you were young, you tied your clothes around you and went wherever you wanted, but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and others will tie you up and bring you where you do not want to go.”
