Listen "Eternal Bread"
Episode Synopsis
John 6:28-35
What does it take to get to heaven? The crowd following Jesus thought they knew—do enough religious work, see enough miraculous signs, secure enough divine provision. They wanted another Moses, another manna, another political deliverer.
Jesus redirected them to a more fundamental reality: "This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent." The work God requires isn't our striving but our resting—receiving Christ alone as sufficient for salvation.
In this passage, Jesus identifies himself as the bread of life, the true satisfaction for hungry souls. Unlike manna that sustained bodies temporarily, Christ offers eternal life to all who come to him in faith. No amount of religious performance can substitute for trusting in his finished work.
The crowd ultimately walked away, preferring their self-sufficient theology to Christ's exclusive claims. The question lands on us: Will we keep seeking bread that perishes, or will we come to the one who satisfies forever?
Listen to the full sermon to explore how Jesus alone meets our deepest need.
