经文 Scripture John 6:25 36

DISCUSSION QUESTION:
1. Why do you think Jesus used “bread” as an illustration to depict Him being the “Bread of Life”? (John 6:35)
2. What was the motivation of the crowd in the passage for searching and following Jesus? Is there any difference with why people may be following Jesus these days? (John 6:2 and 36)
3. Why do you think that the crowd were still hesitant to believe in Jesus? (John 6:30)
4. How did the crowd respond to Jesus’ claim that He is the living bread that comes from heaven? Why do you think they found it hard to accept? (John 6:60 and 66)
5. Why do you think that some Christians, who already have access to Jesus the bread of life, are still chasing after a “life of bread”? What about you?
