Sermons on John 6:59:

A Failure To Understand.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 13, 2021

But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul. Hebrews 10 verse 39.

A FAILURE TO UNDERSTAND John 6:56-69 Like Nicodemus who struggled with the concept of being born again (John 3:4; John 3:9), the Jews in the Capernaum synagogue (John 6:59) struggled to understand what Jesus was talking about (John 6:41; John 6:52).

Why They Turned Down The Bread Of Life Series

Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 15, 2020

- A couple things up front. - First, there is a lot in this passage, yet the passage needs to be taken together. A lot of ideas are brought out, but it’s all a cohesive whole. So we are going to cover a lot of ground this evening. - Second, there is so much in this passage that there are ...read more

I Am The Bread Of Life Series

Contributed by Paul Werling on Dec 26, 2020

Jesus is the bread of life born in Bethlehem the house of bread. We need to learn to believe, trust and obey even when we don't understand.

So you know I really like to give a course rationale when I begin a new series. So keep this in mind as we pursue the purpose of these sermons over the next few weeks. I know I usually would be preaching a sermon on New Years' and time. But this year I want to keep the Christmas theme going ...read more

Jesus "i Am" The Bread Of Life Series

The Test Of The Bread Of Life

Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 17, 2021

The words of Jesus about ‘eating His flesh and drinking His blood’ have caused a lot of misunderstandings and divisions. But the all-knowing God is really checking to see if we will trust Him even if we don't understand!

THE TEST OF THE BREAD OF LIFE John 6:56-69 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A new chaplain was hired for a prison unit. He was excited to preach his first Sunday service in the prison, but he was also very nervous. He didn’t want to say the wrong thing. 2. On Sunday morning he arrived at the prison. ...read more

Breaking Point: Faith That Saves Vs. Faith That Doesn't Series

Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 10, 2021

At the height of popularity, Jesus makes hard statements that thin the crowds. He says many of his disciples didn't really believe. And they fell away. What's the difference between the faith that saves and the kind of faith that doesn't? This story reveals that truth.

I’m sure that there are many of us here who have known or encountered people who were strong Christians from everything we could tell, but who have, for one reason or another, fallen away from the faith. They no longer claim to believe, they do not practice what Christ taught, they no longer ...read more

Jesus Feeds His Hungry People

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Mar 15, 2021

When we go to God through Christ, we will never walk away hungry. When we draw near to God with our whole heart, we will never walk away, disappointed. Because for us, our faithful Saviour will always provide enough—more than enough.

If you’ve recently prayed the Lord’s Prayer, then you made the request to your Father in heaven that He would give you this day “your daily bread.” I wonder if that’s a petition we make with a lot of sincerity. Are we really concerned about getting what we need to maintain our bodies? Is there ...read more

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 12, 2022

The Passover is not "our" festival. But there are things about it, that we should learn and carry over to how we "observe" the Lord's supper.

This morning, we find ourselves in Exodus 12. Here, Pharaoh is about to finally, forever be popped like a tick. Every Egyptian firstborn, from human to cow, will be killed.
