A Better Manna - John 6:36-50

This sermon, based on John 6:35–50, contrasts the unbelieving crowd with true disciples by showing their differing responses to Jesus’ miracles and teaching. While the crowd sought physical bread and miracles for personal gain, true believers recognized Jesus as the Bread of Life and worshiped Him. Pastor Josh emphasized that salvation is entirely God’s work—repentance and faith are gifts from Him—and that all whom the Father gives to the Son will be kept and raised up on the last day. He challenged listeners to examine their lives for the fruit of genuine faith, to rest in the assurance of God’s sovereignty, and to pray fervently for the lost without carrying the crushing burden of trying to save them themselves. Ultimately, the message called for wholehearted worship of Christ, not for His blessings, but for who He is.
