Sermon Tone Analysis

Hard Heart

(NKJV) 14 Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, and they did not have more than one loaf with them in the boat.

15 Then He charged them, saying, “Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod.”

16 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, “It is because we have no bread.”

17 But Jesus, being aware of it, said to them, “Why do you reason because you have no bread?

Do you not yet perceive nor understand?

Is your heart still hardened?

18 Having eyes, do you not see?

And having ears, do you not hear?

And do you not remember?

19 When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments did you take up?”

They said to Him, “Twelve.”

20 “Also, when I broke the seven for the four thousand, how many large baskets full of fragments did you take up?”

And they said, “Seven.”

21 So He said to them, “How is it you do not understand?”

How Is It You Don’t Understand?????

(NIV) 21 He said to them, “Do you still not understand?”

When scripture asks questions you need to find out the answer.

21 He said to them, “Do you still not understand?”

(NKJV) 6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.

I also will forget your children.

Reflecting on Significant Moments

God intervenes in our lives with way more purpose and significance that what we realize.

The disciples had not reflected on the significance of the miracles that they had seen.

It happened to them but had not impressed on them what it really meant.

Deeper Meaning And Principals

There is much deeper meaning and principals behind Gods intervention in history and in our individual lives.

There is an ocean of meaning behind Jesus dying on a cross.

There is much deeper meaning behind Gods hand at work in our lives.

The Principals Behind The Feeding Miracles

Jesus wants to feed hungry people.

He fed the spirit and the physical.

Jesus was not limited by lack.

Natural thinking and principals don't apply to Jesus and His purposes.

Supernatural multiplication is possible.

Little can become more than enough.

Problem solving can have a supernatural answer.
