Jesus addresses questions and criticisms about His ministry in Luke 13 – and as usual, His answers aren’t what anyone expects. As He discusses the need for repentance and salvation, religious traditions, and even threats to His own life, Jesus shows His true purpose to save and transform us through His death and resurrection.

A Bible teaching titled “Through the Bible | John 6” from John 6 by Brett Meador.

Through the Bible | John 6 by Brett Meador

Jesus declares, "I am the Bread of Life" in John 6:31-58 in response to the people's assertion that their ancestors ate bread from Heaven. As we study Jesus' first "I am" statement, we learn how this is linked to manna in the Old Testament, see the danger of murmuring against the Lord's provision, and examine the blessings we receive when we allow Jesus to be the one to fulfill and sustain us.

I AM the Bread of Life by Brett Meador

Jesus attracts the negative attention of the religious leaders after He breaks one of their legalistic rules by healing a man on the Sabbath. As they question Him in John 5, Jesus begins making claims about who He is, why He came, and the final authority He has to judge – which will ultimately draw their ire even more.

Through the Bible | John 5 by Brett Meador

In John 5:1-16 we meet a man who has been crippled for 38 years and is utterly helpless in his attempt to find a remedy. However, his life changes when he encounters Jesus at the Pool of Bethesda. As we study his story, we learn what this man did to deserve this miracle, how he and others responded to his healing, and how the grace and mercy he received are also available to us through Jesus Christ.

Are You Feeling Helpless? by Brett Meador

After encountering Jesus at the village well, a Samaritan woman rushes to share the good news with her fellow townspeople, resulting in many believing in Jesus. Later in John 4, we see an example of false faith from the people of Galilee, and conversely, true faith in action as a nobleman’s son is miraculously healed. As we watch all these events unfold, we see a beautiful model of evangelism, Jesus’ compassion on people from all walks of life, and where genuine faith comes from.
