Probably fear. According to Matthew, Jesus predicts all his apostles will desert Jesus. But this is not true. However because Roman law protects at least one friend to accompany the accused, John accompanied Jesus, saw through his trial and was at the scene of crucifixion.
It is interesting to note that the women who followed Jesus stayed with him until the end; they did not desert him like the apostles.
The John quote is not in the Bible.

But all the apostles were Jewish!
As to why they took to their heels, you would too, they were only human. They came right back with the Holy Spirit's help.
And John never said any such thing!
Jesus said, "My God, why have you FORSAKEN me?"
It meant that the trick worked, that Jesus had indeed taken upon himself the sins of the world. Which he henceforth took into death and left them all there.
So as far as God is concerned, we are all forgiven.
If, Mr. Phelps, you are willing to accept it.

Only one apostle betrayed Jesus; the other 11 (Jewish) apostles were faithful to him. You need to read your Bible....

And where did John say that? He didn't. It's not in the Bible. So who's the liar?

I'm not even a Christian, but I know when someone's lying about other people's belief.

You have a lying problem, a compulsive liar. Please seek help. Go to church, repent of your sins & get delivered from that lying spirit.
