After Jesus announces to the crowd that they have only come to Him because of the five loaves and two fishes that He had broken to feed thousands, He goes on to give them a very clear description of what it is the Father requires for they to have eternal life. The answer that He gives is that all who come to Him, He will give that life. Sadly, in this exchange, the crowd does not receive Jesus by faith, as God requires, but reject His testimony, the testimony of John the Baptist and the ministry altogether of Jesus, when they throw in His face that they believe that they know who He is, and want nothing to do with His words concerning eternal life. We see also, that the Father must draw and call people to the Son and that the Son is committed to those who have been committed to Him by the Father. In our final thought, we will challenge ourselves to preach this simple message, that Jesus is the Bread of Life who gives life to the world for all who believe and if it is God who must draw, then it is God’s job to convince the lost and ours to just deliver the message.
