To Whom Shall We Go?
John 6:60-71
Responses to Jesus varied, especially when He used figurative language and made exclusive claims. Last week we looked at Grumblers and Disputers. This passage gives the account of when Grumblers choose to become Quitters. It also tells us of the Twelve Disciples who choose to go with Jesus.
Choosing to Walk Away from Jesus
Many take offense at Jesus and the claims He makes
The offense of the cross is the deciding factor
Seeing miraculous spiritual events is ineffectual by itself
Spiritual Awakening to Jesus
The Holy Spirit gives life – all of grace, not us
The words of Jesus are spirit and life
Jesus knows “from the beginning” – divine omniscience
Triune God is revealed: The Spirit gives life to us
The Father draws us to Jesus
The Son gives His life for us
Choosing to Follow Jesus
The ultimate question in life is about Jesus
Faith is ongoing trust in the integrity of Jesus
Jesus has the words of eternal life
Jesus is the Holy One of God
Eternity with Jesus is the greatest treasure we can seek
