Spiritual Appetite-
Spiritual appetite leads to fellowship with the Lord.
John 6:51 NKJV
"I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world."
This statement is really not such a stretch. And it isn’t some gross, cannibalistic ritual either. Jesus is referring to our spiritual appetite. Look and see.
And John 1:14 NKJV And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. (Emphasis mine.)
We see here that Jesus is The Word and He became flesh and blood.
So when Jesus is saying we must “eat his flesh”,what he is saying is we must have an appetite for, or desire to know The Word.
You wanna get close to Jesus? Get into the Word and get the Word into you!
