minutes and I bring your attention to the message that is entitled today the real Wonder Bread the real wonder wonder bread if you have your Bibles turn with me to the Book of John John the 6th chapter I want to confess today that today in our As We are continuing our Series in the Book of John uh I'm going to take I'm going to skip you a little head ah head in the story and then the next Sabbath that I'm here I'm going to bring you back amen because as much as I would like to to share with you everything that I want to share with you I can't do it in five minutes amen so I want to bring you to the semal point that is important for our message today John chapter John chapter 6 amen we are beginning at verse [Music] 3 five John chapter 6 beginning at verse 35 I will read in your hearing from the King James version of the Bible and Jesus said unto them I am the bread of life he that cometh unto me shall never hunger and he that believeth on me shall never thirst but I said unto you that ye also have seen me and believe not all that the father giveth me shall come to me and he that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out for I came down from heaven not to do mine own will but the will of him that sent me and this is the Father's will which hath sent me that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing but should raise it up again in at the last day and this is the will of him that sent me that everyone which seeth the son and believeth on him may have everlasting life and I will raise him up at the last day may the Lord add his Blessing to the word father anoint our hearts and Minds remove from our our mind find anything that would keep us from receiving your word may they not see me may they not hear me but may we see Jesus high and lifted on the cross in the name of Jesus we pray amen and amen I would love to take this time today to take you to the be you may be seated I would love to take this time today and take you to the beginning of the book of the sixth chapter of the Book of John and talk to you about how he turned Five Loaves into two fish into bread to feed 5,000 and fish to feed 5,000 but I don't have the time I would love to take the time to take you in and tell you the significance of the 12 baskets of fra fragments that were left after the the this feeding was done and and and and share with you how beautiful it is that after God moves that there's always something left over but I just don't have the time I would love to take the time to take you into the words of Jesus before we get to this statement that is made here in our scripture for today and tell you about how Jesus Paints the picture of how he is the bread of life that it brings everlasting life but today I just want to come to you today and tell you that while when you go to your grocery store you will see one brand of bread that's called Wonderbread that there's still only one Wonderbread in this world and his name is Jesus he's the Lamb of God which takes away the sins of the world he came and he died on this Earth so that we might have a right to the tree of life and he came in this statement and said I am the bread of life uh oh it it's good news to know that Jesus is the real Wonder Bread because he has come on that Wondrous Cross and died for our sins he came so that we might have a right to the tree of life he came so that we might be rescued from a world that is filled with sin and he came to let the whole world know that he is the bread of life uh oh but there's good news in the text today not only is he the bread of life he gave in this ma passage of scripture the H uh the promise that those that come to him and and receive of the real Wonder Bread anyone who comes to him he will in no wise cast out oh it's so good to know that when I come and take of Jesus he promis that he won't cast me out uh uh he he promised that he won't turn me away he promised that he won't push me back there's nothing that I can do except not coming to him that can keep me from the grace that comes from God uh I I want to tell you today that not only uh do you come to him but you can't come to him unless the father sends you saints of God I want you to know that we have a father who's uh involved in the Salvation process and he's wooing you to the sun he's letting you know that you got to partake of the real Wonderbread and that's Jesus uh I'm so glad that this text lets us know that everyone who comes to him uh all those who come to him oh it's beautiful to know that Jesus said with his own lips that those who come to him him of those that come to him none shall be lost that's good news today because if you come to Jesus and you accept him and you follow him all the way he has promised in his words that all that come to him shall not be lost I'm not teaching uh uh once saved always saved I'm teaching that when you come to Jesus he changes you through and through and if you come to Jesus you won't be lost if you come to Jesus you shall be saved if you accept Jesus uh he will both work in you to Will and to do of his good pleasure and I'm so glad to know that Jesus in his own words pinned in read here in your Bible said all those who come to him of those that come to him none shall be lost so it's good news today as we partake of the body and the blood of Jesus Christ that as I accept today the real Wonder World bread I have hope today that Jesus saves I have hope today that Jesus will will bring me through I have hope today that as I trust in the Lord Jesus Christ I shall be saved isn't it good news today as we end this message to know that Jesus is the real Wonderbread is there somebody that would just stand to their feet and put a hand clap of Praise today about the fact that Jesus is the real Wonderbread is there somebody today that will shout hallelujah because Jesus is the real Wonderbread is there someone today that will praise the name of the Lord because he is the will Wonder
