    The Gospel According to John--"I Am The Bread of Life" (John 6:35)

    Amen, and from Hebrews: Hebrews 9:7 New King James Version 7 But into the second part the high priest went alone once a year (Day of Atonement), not without blood, which he offered for himself and for the people’s sins committed in ignorance; Atonement is one of the most powerful aspects of...

    The Gospel According to John--"I Am The Bread of Life" (John 6:35)

    Here's an interesting parallel from the OT: Leviticus 16:20-22 New King James Version 20 “And when he has made an end of atoning for the Holy Place, the tabernacle of meeting, and the altar, he shall bring the live goat. 21 Aaron shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, confess...

    The Gospel According to John--"I Am The Bread of Life" (John 6:35)

    There aren't many direct references to the Day of Atonement in the New Testament other than a passing reference to "The Fast" in the book of Acts. On the other hand, there are multiple references to atonement, especially the Book of Hebrews. We have at-one-ment with God now through the sacrifice...

    The Gospel According to John--"I Am The Bread of Life" (John 6:35)

    1 Corinthians 15:52 New King James Version 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. That will be quite a trumpet blast indeed!!!

    The Gospel According to John--"I Am The Bread of Life" (John 6:35)

    Here's a good article that summarizes some of the key aspects of the Feast of Tabernacles: What Does the Feast of Tabernacles Mean to Christians? (learnreligions.com) Leviticus chapter 23 outlines "the feasts of the Lord, which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, these are My feasts"...

    The Gospel According to John--"I Am The Bread of Life" (John 6:35)

    John 7 covers Jesus' attendance at the "Jews' Feast of Tabernacles" (v. 2), which implies to me that is a festival the disciples didn't incorporate into their religious practices although there are some Christian denominations today who still observe this significant "feast" in God's plan for...

    The gospel of …..

    Yes I do, brother. My parents named me David in honor of king David. They wanted me to always know I am "beloved." Wow, did they put high expectations on me! :)

    The gospel of …..

    Amen. In addition to giving Moses the law, Jesus (I love the Hebrew "Yeshua" name you use for Him) is the one who spoke face-to-face with Mose as the leader of God's chosen people, Israel. Interesting that during the transfiguration, Moses is one of the people along with Elijah who the...

    Psalm 119 - Love for God's Law

    Yes, Psalm 119 is completely beautiful and a wonderful part of God's inspiring Word. I have more work to do on this psalm but am in no rush. I want to drink it in and allow for meditation and reflection in the weeks and perhaps months ahead. I observed the Sabbath as a Christian for several...

    The gospel of …..

    Jesus sums up the spiritual intent of the "law" in The Sermon on the Mount. The gospel magnifies the law given at Sinai and through Moses to those weightier matters of the law such as justice, mercy, and truth. And really, it all gets back to love and grace. We obey God's commandments because we...

    Psalm 119 - Love for God's Law

    Thank you for your thoughts on this subject, Frank, and there's a lively discussion related to your observations at the forum listed below. The gospel of ….. - Christian Chat Rooms & Forums I think a lot of the confusion and debate centers around which "laws" from the Old Covenant are still...

    The Gospel According to John--"I Am The Bread of Life" (John 6:35)

    Great thoughts, my friend, and I love the verse your quoted from John 6:40. The desire (will) of the Father is that we believe Jesus and have everlasting life, being resurrected "at the last day." This is a main theme of John 6 where Jesus focuses on Him being the "bread of life." Just as bread...

    The Gospel According to John--"I Am The Bread of Life" (John 6:35)

    It's interesting that Jesus says that those who hear His word and believes in the Father has everlasting life. We have "passed from death unto life." We've talked about this before, and my theology has changed a little on my view of the resurrection. The big question is if we go directly to...

    The seed in the heart

    It makes sense that God through the writers of His Word uses nature imagery to express important ideas to His people who understand an agrarian lifestyle. Two of the annual Jewish festivals center around the spring harvest (Feast of Weeks--aka. First Fruits and later Pentecost for Christians)...
