Jesus  the living Bread through whom earthly and eternal rests are freely secured 
John  6:28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?  6:29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.  6:30 They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work?  6:31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.  6:32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.  6:33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.  6:34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.  6:35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.

Beloved Brethren, all glory and honor should be given to our Father for His great love for all humanity and you in particular.

Romans  5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Humanity had been separated from God, because of the sin of Adam and Eve.

Death and eternal separation from God was the consequences of the wilful sins of Adam.

Romans  3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

Romans  5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:  

5:14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.

Romans  6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Jesus voluntary sacrificial death , bought eternal life for all humanity of all ages, freely.

John 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.  10:11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.  

10:18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.  

10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:  10:28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

Romans  8:32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

However, for anyone to benefit from the sacrificial death of Christ, He must come to Him, believingly.

John  6:29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. 

 6:33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world. 

 6:35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.

 6:48 I am that bread of life.  6:49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.  6:50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.  

6:51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. 

 6:53 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.  

6:54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. 

 6:55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.  6:56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him. 

 6:57 As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me. 

 6:58 This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.

No wonder our Lord said, you should come and receive earthly and eternal rest.

Matthew  11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.  11:29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.  11:30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

Revelation  14:13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.

Beloved brethren have you heeded this glorious call?

Come to Jesus and you shall experience both biblical salvation and biblical sanctification.

Matthew  1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

You shall be saved from sins without.  Biblical salvation. 

1 Corinthians  6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,  6:10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

Galatians  5:19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,  5:20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,  5:21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

In addition your wholehearted coming will also save you  from sins within, biblical sanctification.

Matthew  5:8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

Mark  7:20 And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.  7:21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,  7:22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:  7:23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.

Then you shall have access to eternity with God, because you have been cleansed from all defilements.

Revelation  21:27 And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb’s book of life.

Beloved come to Jesus today, tomorrow might be too late.

2 Corinthians  6:2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)
