In His Service

  The Bread of Life - Receiving God’s Seal of Approval Part 1 John 6:23-35 In our world, most everyone desires to have the approval of their peers, some for the right reasons others for their own selfish prideful reasons. Jesus came into the world not to seek the approval of the sinful people he came to save, but to do the work of God, thus doing the work of God, he would receive the approval of God. Let’s look at the first portion of the text, “ Then some boats from Tiberias landed near the place where the people had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks.

The testifying of what God had done in the life or situations his disciples face while walking with Jesus, though there are those who testify about themselves which is what Jesus warns about in this lesson. Now, John is testifying about Jesus as a witness. Let’s look at the text, “If I testify about myself, my testimony is not true. There is another who testifies in my favor, and I know that his testimony about me is true. “You have sent to John and he has testified to the truth. Not that I accept human testimony; but I mention it that yo...
