  4. The IMPORTANCE OF THE BREAD

  5. How we get the Bread • By coming to Jesus

  6. What this and other passages teach us is the inability of man and the sovereign grace of God’s choice in salvation.

  7. The work Jesus tells us to do is believe, but even that is impossible for us. To come to Christ we must be drawn by the Father. Throughout scripture man’s inability is shown and God’s grace is magnified.

  8. Our inability is not a natural inability; it is an issue of the heart, a heart disposed against Christ.

  9. Look to him and get a sense of the reality of the Bread of Life. There is nothing more appetizing than fresh bread.

  10. HOW TO KNOW IF YOU’VE COME TO Jesus

  11. – Soul Satisfaction – • You’re not hungry or thirsty anymore

  12. WHAT DOES THIS SATISFIED SOUL LOOK LIKE? • – You have ceased striving to have power, position, possession, performance, and reputation to prove yourself.

  13. -You get off and you let others off the performance treadmill – they don’t have to do things the way you do to validate your decisions, values and experience.

  14. - You are more other centered and less self centered; you’re not using others to fill the void in your soul so you’re able to love and serve them. • -You’re less critical, less defensive, not so easily offended, and you complain less.

  15. -You experience a sense of soul CONTENTMENT. • -You are not looking to be satisfied or satisfy others by my performance; you are satisfied and transformed by the perfect work of Christ.

  16. -You’re no longer hungry and driven to create a resume to impress others. • -You remember that the gospel teaches you that you’re a loved moral failure (God didn’t love you because you were good).

  17. GOD SAVES SINNERS – • The Father chooses a people to give to the Son; the Son through his perfect obedience and perfect sacrifice accomplishes salvation, and the Holy Spirit enables / renews the hearts of those whom the Father has given and whom the Son has purchased.

  18. The Trinity • O Father, thou hast loved me and sent Jesus to redeem me; • O Jesus, thou hast loved me and assumed my nature, shed thine own blood to wash away my sins, • wrought righteousness to cover my unworthiness;

  19. O Holy Spirit, thou hast loved me and entered my heart, implanted there eternal life, revealed to me the glories of Jesus.

  20. We are beggars at the feast, and the bread will never run out. • There is nothing that smells or tastes better than Fresh Bread.
