It was quoted in regards to the passage in John 5 where Jesus discusses the scriptures and how people wrongly believe that studying them brings eternal life, when it's Jesus who offers it.
"
He said, Jesus is actually being a bit reproving here. He's saying, in essence, you study the scriptures because you think that activity brings eternal life. But the scriptures testify of me and I give eternal life.
The Jewish sages of Jesus' day believed that the act of studying the Torah brought eternal life, but Jesus pointedly taught that the scriptures do not bring salvation. Sacred writ was given to testify of him and he, God, was the vehicle of salvation.

It was mentioned as a book by Robert J. Matthews, focusing on the life and ministry of John the Baptist, particularly regarding his knowledge of Jesus's identity and the purpose of his disciples questioning Jesus.
"
He said the question they were to put to Jesus was for their edification, not for his own. John knew as no one else knew who Jesus was and he had known it for a long time.
He had had revelation from heaven to this effect. He had seen with his eyes, he had heard with his ears and he had the testimony of the Holy ghost.
The most satisfactory answer seems to be that John sent his disciples to question Jesus about his identity so that they themselves would at long last realized the truth of what John had been testifying.

At a state conference attended by a member of the 12, she experienced the impression that if her faith were great enough, she could be healed.
Her faith had made her whole.
