Winter, God is good 🌲🌲🌲

Those men, when they had seen the sign that Jesus did, said, This is truly the prophet who is to come into the world.

John 6:14

What are we to think of the many miracles that Jesus performed? All His life on earth multitudes followed Him around, because He healed so many sick persons. Many came through their desire to see a sensation, some out of a real interest.

On one occasion the Son of God provided for a huge multitude in the wilderness with only five loaves and two fishes. The apostle John describes it in this 6th chapter. Of course, such a small amount of food did not suffice for five thousand men. But Jesus Christ increased the loaves and fishes to such an extent that twelve baskets full of leftovers remained. The world had never seen such a thing before. Was it an optical illusion, magic or divine power? The biblical report shows this last to be the case. Read it and form your own judgment.

Finally the people’s reaction is described: they wanted to make Jesus their king. They clearly imagined that they would never again have any need. They had really experienced the miracle. But they had not understood what the sign actually meant.

Their other conclusion, that Jesus was truly the prophet announced in the Old Testament fell short of the truth. He was more: He is the Son of God, who wishes to free people from their sins. But the majority refused to acknowledge that. Shortly afterwards the Son of God gave His life for lost mankind. And that is the question that addresses us all.

“These (signs) are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name” (John 20:31).
