Section 15

meaning is profound. The "water" here signi fies the enjoyment of material things and the amusement of worldly entertainment. None of these can quench the thirst deep within man. However much he drinks of this material and worldly "water," he shall thirst again. The more he drinks of these "waters," the more his thirst is increased. For example, in education people like to have higher and higher degrees. After receiv ing a bachelor's degree, they want a master's, and after that, a doctorate. Others may desire to accumulate ten thousand dollars in a savings account, but after that, they want to have a hun dred thousand, and after a hundred thousand, a million. The more you drink of the water of this earth, the more thirsty you become. Never try to quench your thirst with any kind of worldly water. Although the Samaritan woman had had five husbands and was living with a man who was not her husband, she still was not satisfied. Nothing could quench her thirst. Some sisters love clothing. However, no woman can be satis fied with any type of garment. After you pur chase one, you will want a second and a third. If you have ten pairs of shoes, you will want to have fifteen pairs. Some women who have more than fifteen pairs of shoes still are not

satisfied. This kind of "water" will never satisfy people. There is only one "water" that satis fies people for eternity—Jesus Christ. Christ satisfies today, tomorrow, and for eternity. He is ever new, ever fresh. He always satisfies. So, the Lord could tell the Samaritan woman that who ever drinks of the water that He gives will not thirst, for that water will become in him a spring welling up into eternal life.
