John 6
Fresh Bread!
Good morning! This is Pastor Jerry Ingalls from New Castle First Baptist Church and today is Saturday, June 13 and in continued partnership with our local and state health departments, FBC is now in Stage 4. Praise God! I hope to see you at church tomorrow. Please join us in person if you feel safe and are feeling healthy. The doors open at 10 for our 10:30 am service.
Do you enjoy fresh bread, whether homemade or store bought? Do you have a favorite doughnut shop, maybe Jack’s, where you can buy a fresh doughnut? I think we all would agree that fresh bread is better than stale bread or even day-old bread.
John 6 is so rich, so packed full of the life-giving teachings of Jesus. Listen to Jesus serve fresh bread in verses 35-40,
I am the bread of life; he who comes to Me will not hunger, and he who believes in Me will never thirst. But I said to you that you have seen Me, and yet do not believe. All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will certainly not cast out. For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me. This is the will of Him who sent Me, that of all that He has given Me I lose nothing, but raise it up on the last day. For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who beholds the Son and believes in Him will have eternal life, and I Myself will raise him up on the last day.
Seize the moment and enjoy the fresh bread of Jesus’ words. Hear Jesus’ daily invitation to sit and enjoy His presence in your quiet time with Him. Come to Me, all who are hungry and thirsty, and I will satisfy your heart, mind, body, and soul. Jesus wants to give you fresh bread today.
