Johannes 6,71

69 Vi har kommet til å tro og forstå at du er Guds Hellige."

70 Da svarte Jesus: "Har jeg ikke valgt dere, de tolv? Likevel er en av dere en djevel!"

Han refererte til Judas, sønn av Simon Iskariot, som, selv om han var en av de tolv, senere skulle forråde ham.

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
