4 THINGS EVERY SKEPTIC NEEDS TO HEAR Dr. McKay Caston, Lead Pastor of Teaching and Leadership

JOHN 6:41-59

41 At this the Jews began to grumble about him because he said, "I am the bread that came down from heaven." 42 They said, "Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How can he now say, 'I came down from heaven'?" 43 "Stop grumbling among yourselves," Jesus answered. 44 "No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day. 45 It is written in the Prophets: 'They will all be taught by God.' Everyone who listens to the Father and learns from him comes to me. 46 No one has seen the Father except the one who is from God; only he has seen the Father. 47 I tell you the truth, he who believes has everlasting life. 48 I am the bread of life. 49 Your forefathers ate the manna in the desert, yet they died. 50 But here is the bread that comes down from heaven, which a man may eat and not die. 51 I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. This bread is my esh, which I will give for the life of the world." 52 Then the Jews began to argue sharply among themselves, "How can this man give us his esh to eat?" 53 Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, unless you eat the esh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. 54 Whoever eats my esh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. 55 For my esh is real food and my blood is real drink. 56 Whoever eats my esh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in him. 57 Just as the living Father sent me and I live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live because of me. 58 This is the bread that came down from heaven. Your forefathers ate manna and died, but he who feeds on this bread will live forever." 59 He said this while teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum.
