Jesus Christ described himself as the Bread of Life in John 6:35 NLT: "I am the bread of life. Whoever believes in me will never be thirsty." The phrase, "I am the bread of life," is one of the "I AM" statements that Jesus spoke in the gospel of John. However, it is more a function of life than a title in the life of a follower of Christ. Bread is a symbolic representation of the life-provision of Christ. When you become born again, you receive the Bread of Life and become a

Considering that we are all joined in a unique community of believers with a variety of concepts, I celebrate every one’s uniqueness and recognize their individual journey. I have determined not to minimize, criticize or in any way demean or demonize another’s belief or religious system. I desire to live, speak and write in a redemptive manner in order to share insights and observations to help others grow in Christ. As for my belief, I do need to state clearly that I believe

In the days of Christ, a case of the flu, a cold or even a tooth infection could kill you. This was the world in which the living Christ lived (fully divine and fully human). In his public ministry, he sought out those who were sick (horrid skin conditions with leprosy, epilepsy, a woman’s flow of blood, deafness, blindness, withered hands, paralysis).
