Charles Spurgeon Commentary John 18:9

"that the word might be fulfilled which he spake, Of those whom thou hast given me I lost not one." — John 18:9 (ASV)

That the saying might be fulfilled which he spake, Of them which thou gavest me have I lost none.

He had only said that just a little while before, but this verse shows us that the New Testament is as sure to be fulfilled as the Old Testament. It was a new saying, not then written, yet it had all the life and power of God in it; so it must live, and must be fulfilled.
