The Bread of Life
- John 6:22-40 – For people who desired another heavenly handout, Jesus offered Himself as the only thing to sustain us. Only through Christ can you be truly satisfied.
What Happened Then
- Jesus had recently fed a large crowd, and they were seeking the next handout (6:10-11, 22-26).
- Jesus warned them about pursuits focused solely on meeting physical needs (6:27).
- Being a disciple of Jesus is based on belief and not performance (6:28-29).
- God graciously meets our physical needs in a way that points to our greater ones (6:30-33).
- In a world full of letdowns, Jesus is the only thing that can truly satisfy (6:34-35).
- Since God initiates salvation, those who receive it cannot lose it (6:36-37).
- God knows all about us yet still desires us to be with Him throughout eternity (6:38-40).
What Needs to Happen Now
- Acknowledge the numerous ways that God has met your multifaceted needs.
- Remedy your discontentment by ceasing to pursue things that can’t satisfy you.
- Evaluate if you are seeking what Jesus gives more than who Jesus is.
- If you seek eternal satisfaction, look nowhere other than Jesus.
