Never Eat or Drink Again? AWESOME!!




John 6:35 says, "Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life; he who comes to Me will not hunger, and he who believes in Me will never thirst." (NAS)


Okay let’s break this down a little bit. You might be thinking how is this possible? How can we never hunger or thirst? We can also see this in John 4:10, 13, and 14. You can look there for parallel verses that also talk about the living water and the bread of life.

In that age bread was a major source of food for the people. It is what they relied on to sustain them for food. We can see this also in our day in age, but with more meat and junk food. The bread of life that Jesus is talking about here is not physical food, but the body of Jesus. If we take part in the bread of life that would mean that we are eating spiritual food for our soul. We get that spiritual food from reading God's Word. This also does not mean that we will never hunger for physical food because we all know that we will. This portion of the verse I am the bread of life; he who comes to me will not hunger is indicating that if we have Jesus to feed this spiritual food then we will not be hungering for anything else in this world. The void that we have in our lives will be filled and we will be complete. To give an example if we have this bread of life then we would not want things of this earth to control us such as money and passion of the heart.

Now let’s take a look at the next portion of this verse, he who believes in me will never thirst. Again this is not a physical thirst that Jesus is talking about. This portion of the scripture is parallel to the previous clause and means the same, the living water and the bread of life being separate metaphors for one thing only, Jesus Christ. Another place in the Bible we see this is as I mentioned above John 4:14. "but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him shall never thirst; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life."

Now if you know that you have not taken part of this bread of life and you are still hungering for things of this world listen up. Romans 6:23 says, "For the wages of sin is DEATH, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." Everybody dies, but not everybody will die a death and then go to Hell. If you know you do not have the bread of life YOU ARE GOING TO HELL! You cannot escape it, and you will not be able to talk God into letting you go to Heaven. There is only one way to Heaven and that is through Jesus Christ! The gift of God is FREE! To receive this free gift you must repent of your sins and to turn away from them. Throw them behind you and run from them. Turn to God and let Him guide your life and let Him be in control and do not resist! You must believe in the one true God and nothing else this world tells you to believe. John 14:6 says, Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me." Jesus is the only way to the Father in Heaven. Without Jesus you have nothing. You must hand your life over to Him.

If you need to talk to somebody send I an email and I will talk with you. If you want to know more about Jesus and how to accept Him into your life again send me an email and I will tell you. If you want a Bible and you do not have one send me an email and I WILL send one to you. If you live in another country and you need a Bible, just tell me and I will send one to you. I will not leave you with an excuse not to have one. You can email me at takeyourchance@worthyemail.com

Please if you are not a Christian the time for salvation is today. Do not wait and say I will do it later in life because you never know when it is your time to face judgment. You can pass from this earth anytime. Your time could be in five minutes. Don’t waste any more time living for the world. LIVE FOR JESUS!

  1. My prayer is that someone will take you up on your offer to visit with them or send a Bible to them if they need. Our days our certainly numbered on this earth and as you said, today is the day of salvation! Witnessing what is going on in the world today I honestly believe we are living in the end times and it seems to be more prevalent than ever before. Thank you for sharing Danny!!
