Sermons on John 6:1:

A Challenge Of True Faith: Give Ye Them To Eat

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Nov 20, 2019

You give them something to eat. We cannot be true disciples of Jesus with this dead faith, He wouldn’t allow it then and he doesn’t allow it now.

The first outstanding event of Jesus feeding of the five thousand, occurs right after the report of the twelve apostles, who had just returned from their first missionary tour. This is a glowing account of their work and their teaching. Matthew says that Jesus withdrew to a desert place apart when ...read more

Giving Thanks As We Grow Olddr Sermon I: Jesus Gave Thanks Series

Contributed by Charles Cunningham on Sep 27, 2019

By giving thanks, Jesus made a custom that seemed so ordinary sacred . . . by lifting the level of its meaning beyond the material to the spiritual. Our Lord was aware, as we should be, of Who our Provider is.

JESUS GAVE THANKS – John 6:1-15 Somewhere I read about a woman who boarded a bus and could not find a seat? Every seat was taken. She was tired and carried several packages. Noticing her plight, a gentleman stood up and ...read more

Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Jul 30, 2020

God has a great story He wants us to join.

Walking on Water Matthew 14:22-33 The phrase “Walking on Water” has become a proverb. It is spoken of someone who seems to prevail against all odds. It is to do the impossible.

How To Deal With An Impossible Situation Series

Contributed by James Wallace on Feb 15, 2021

Jesus and His disciples faced an absolutely impossible situation--10,000 people to feed in a deserted place, little food and too little money. How should we respond when we face the same kind of situation?

“Life is difficult.” So says the first three words of a best-selling book by Dr. M. Scott Peck, an author and Psychiatrist, who wrote “The Road Less Traveled.” And He goes on to say that the key to dealing with the difficulty of life is just simply realizing and accepting the fact that life is ...read more

Jesus Christ: The Messiah, Not A Meal Ticket Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 14, 2021

When Jesus fed the five thousand, as recorded in all four gospels, He demonstrated what He taught about God being the Provider of our needs (Matthew 6:25-34). Most of the crowd, however, wanted food, not faith.

The Lord Jesus never taught anything about the nature and character of God the Father that He Himself did not demonstrate or model before either His disciples or the people who followed and listened to Him. When we first read of this miracle, mentioned in all four gospels, we see the Divine ...read more

Sharing

Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Sep 13, 2022

The feeding of the 5000 in John 6 has many layers of meaning. One view is that the miracle is that Jesus got everyone to share their food.
