Jesus Is the Bread of Life
John 6:22-40
The day before this encounter, the disciples and some from the crowd of 5000, which were fed by five loaves and two fish, learned more about Jesus’ compassion, ability, abundance, identity and lordship. Now they (and we) learn more about how Jesus wants us to respond to him as he declares the first of his “I am” statements.
Seek Jesus for the Right Reason
Not as a cosmic vending machine
Not for grand entertainment
For true signs that point to Jesus’ real identity
With a genuine desire to be doing the work of God
Trust Jesus in the Right Way
Not with an unquenchable need for constant proof
Not with trusting in the things that really only point to Jesus
Believe Jesus is the Bread of Life given by the Father
Have faith that Jesus gives life to the world
Find Hope in Jesus that Never Fades
Not looking to Jesus is to not quench spiritual hunger and thirst
Not believing in Jesus is to not have eternal hope
Trusting in Jesus shows the Father gave us to Jesus (God’s will)
Jesus seals our eternal life and our resurrection
