John 6:30 - 40‚ 47-51 The text presented Jesus as the bread from heaven; “Bread of Life”. The people were asking Jesus to perform signs that they may believe in him as Son of God. Though these men had seen and been seeing Jesus working signs and wonders‚ still they beg for more and never satisfied.

of God‚ these names describe one man: Jesus Christ. No other person in the history of the world is more well known or respected. The man born of a virgin and raised by a carpenter.
