FRIDAY-3rd
WEEK OF EASTER-A
I
Reading: Acts 9:1-20: This man is my chosen instrument
to bring my name before pagans.
Gospel:
John 6:52-59: My flesh is real
food and my blood is real drink.
The Results
of Partaking of the Bread of Life, Jn 6:52-58
A person must receive
and partake of the Bread of Life. When he/she does, he/she receives five
wonderful things.
1.
The religionists were perplexed over
Jesus’ words (v.52-53)
a. They
questioned partaking of His flesh
b. Jesus
proclaimed a much more shocking thing: unless one partakes of Him, he/she does
not have life
2.
Result 1: eternal life-conquering
death and being resurrected (v.54)
3.
Result 2: true not false
satisfaction (v.55)
4.
Result 3: supernatural
companionship and fellowship (v.56)
5.
Result 4: a life that is full of
purpose and meaning (v.57)
6.
Result 5: incorruptible food
received with in the heart-energizing life forever (v.58)
Thought:
Unless a person receives (eats and drinks) Christ, he/she has no life within
him. He/she is a dead person spiritually and eternally. He/she is walking
around a dead person. (Eph 2:1; 5:14; Col 2:13, 1Tim 5:6; Rev3:1)
