Sermon Summary:

This sermon explores Jesus' challenging statement about eating his flesh and drinking his blood, interpreting it as an invitation to fully embrace and internalize Christ. Pastor John emphasizes the importance of truly hungering for God, moving beyond casual association to full dependence on Jesus.

Key Points:

  • Jesus is the bread of life, offering eternal sustenance unlike temporary provisions
  • True life is found only in Jesus, not in worldly substitutes
  • Discipleship involves becoming who Jesus would be if He were you

    • John 15 (vine and branches analogy)
    • Matthew 7:21
