Bible Study, John Chapter 6 Verses 55-64

John 6:55 – For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.  It is a certain sign that you have no spiritual life in you if you have no desire towards Jesus nor delight in His teaching. Jesus is the Word that became flesh when we read and study the Word of God, we are eating, and just like the blood that gives us life, His Words gives us life, it cleanses away the sin.  It is also certain that you can have no spiritual life unless you derived it from Jesus Christ by faith, separated from Him, you can do nothing.

We’re sorry for any sin or sins that we have committed and we ask for Your forgiveness. Strengthen us in the areas we are weak in as we confess our sins to You. Read More
