of the miracle/message cycle.
The Message of the miracle/message cycle.
I am the Bread of Life.
Simple sermon Jesus preached here.
Eat and drink what I have and you’ll never hunger or thirst again.
We do crave.
We crave affirmation.
Love.
Comfort.
Security.
Some of what we crave is necessary for life.
Some of it is from the darker side of humanity.
We’ll talk about how Jesus satisfies all our desires shortly.
signs- not because you saw the revelation of who I am, but because of the food.
Jesus was trying to get them to see past the miracle and see what the miracle showed them: That He was the One sent by God.

work- dont labor for food that perishes, but for eternal… Jesus alone is the source.
Jesus alone can fulfill our desires.
(which we were created to have - man in the garden)
John
In the Hebrew, they asking about working works.
work- dont labor for food that perishes, but for eternal…
Did you know that this word
pistis (faith)
does not occur in the book of John?
Instead he uses this word
pisteuein (believe)
and equates it with the idea of ‘obey’.
When Work Gets in the Way
A few weeks ago we made the observation that work is important to every generation, and one generation often judges another by their willingness or ability to work.
Jesus is challenging a long-standing mindset that work is what pleases God.
They took and heard the ‘buy’, ‘spend’ and ‘wages’ but missed the ‘without money’ and without cost’.
They missed ‘listen carefully’ so they missed that it was a GIFT OF GOD.
We made
In chapter 2 Jesus showed them two temples and in chapter 3, two births.
In chapter 4 it was two waters and now He presents them 2 breads.
Manna means ‘what is it?’
Manna- what is it?
They asked about manna ‘Moses provided’.
But they set up Jesus’ response by how they asked what work He was doing.
Its almost as if they asked “What is it you do?”
So often we define ourselves by what we do.
But we cant apply that to right standing with God.
See how Jesus answered the question:
Regarding salvation there is work to do, if you consider believe to be work.
John does use the work in parallel with obey so that it conveys action.
But its the same idea as receiving manna.
Original “Wonder Bread”- kept over night and worms.
unless before sabbath.
There COULD have been some who looked out on the ground and said “I dont want this slightly sweetened, crispy deliciousness!
I’ll make my own bread.”
And, in fact, they did grumble to Moses claiming to have nothing to eat, we hate this loathesome bread.
There will be some who say “I dont want the Bread of Life.
I’ll make my own way to heaven”.
There will be some who say “I dont want the Bread of Life.
I’ll make my own way to heaven”.
Jesus is the Bread of Life
Comparing Himself to manna
sent from heaven, but greater
for the sustaining of life, for the giving of life
they would die without it, ...
The Jewish leaders had been taught there would be a final Passover at the coming of the Messiah and heavenly bread would be given then.
Jesus is explaining that HE IS that heavenly bread.
Both Gift and Giver.

Both Gift and Giver.
They asked Him for this bread, He offered Himself.
They missed what we HAVE to get: We need Jesus!
Because He is all-satisfying.
When Christ is our satisfaction, He will transform our life.
He overcomes our desire for sin by the power of His satisfaction!
He says “When you come to Me you wont hunger and when you believe in Me you wont thirst”.
Paul tells us in Galatians: Those who belong to Christ have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires.
The cravings of the dark side of our human condition have been crucified with Christ!
You might say “you dont know the sin I struggle with”.
Maybe you dont know the ability of Jesus to satisfy that which He created!
You might say “I cant imagine being satisfied by something/someone I cant see”.
