The Bread of Life (1 of 7)
Series: I Am
Josh Malone
John 6:25-59
Today we are beginning a new series called “I Am.” We are going to be looking at the 7 “I am” statements of Christ in the gospel of John. --- John tells us he wrote his gospel so that we might BELIEVE. And of the of the key thing he does throughout his gospel is declare to us who Jesus is. One of the ways he does that is by recording Jesus’s I am statements.
These statements help us KNOW CHRIST better. They reveal him to us more clearly.
Today we are looking in John 6 at Jesus statement that He is the bread of life.
These statements are about who Jesus IS. – He IS the bread of life, it’s about more than what He gives, it’s about His very identity.
Today Jesus is going to get right at our deepest desires and needs. He’s going to show us that our greatest need is Him. That apart from Him we can’t live nor thrive spiritually.
However, Just me saying the phrase “Jesus is the Bread of Life” may be unappealing to some... you may think “I don’t even like bread.” OR “I have a wheat allergy.” --- Kind of misses the point. In Jesus day bread was a staple. We will see this morning he will speak to something deeper, He is going to show us He is the ultimate necessity of true life.
It is Him, more than anything we need if we are to meaning, contentment, peace, and life. – Without the bread of life, we cannot have true life. Apart from daily feasting on the bread of life we cannot thrive spiritually.
25 When they found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, “Rabbi, when did you come here?” 26 Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you are seeking me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate your fill of the loaves. 27 Do not work for the food that perishes, but for the food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you. For on him God the Father has set his seal.” 28 Then they said to him, “What must we do, to be doing the works of ...
