The Life-Giving Words of Christ

Summary

This sermon emphasizes that true life comes from the Holy Spirit, not human efforts or intellect, drawing from John 6:63 and the concept of the incarnate Word becoming flesh (John 1:14). John Piper argues that Jesus's sacrificial flesh, as the living bread, is the source of grace, and embracing this truth removes fence-sitting and brings about genuine spiritual life. The takeaway is to rely on the Spirit's power, found in Jesus's words and sacrifice, for eternal life.
