John 6:22 - 6:45
Gospel of JohnSteve Gregg
In John 6:22-6:45, Jesus speaks about the importance of seeking spiritual nourishment over physical needs, using the metaphor of "eating his flesh and drinking his blood" to symbolize the necessity of believing and consuming his teachings for true nourishment. This discourse is also used as proof text by Calvinists for their platform of unconditional election and perseverance of the saints, but it is important to note that the concept of God irresistibly drawing people to him is not consistently presented in the Bible, and people have the ability to choose between rebellion and submission to God. Ultimately, Jesus emphasizes the enduring significance of God's word, which gives eternal life.
