JESUS AS THE LIVING BREAD AND WATER. JOHN 15:1-11, 6:25-40, 4:7-15, 1 JOHN 1:5-7
Jesus as the Living Bread (John 6:25–40)
When the multitude that came to Jesus had been fed, he left for the other side of the sea. People sought for him and went to him on a boat. Jesus said that they were looking for him in order to be fed and because of the signs that they had seen. He enjoined them to seek for the word of life which leads to eternal life. Such food, he said, could only come from the son of man who has the power to give. The people asked him what they would do as proof that they are doing the work of God. Jesus told them to believe in him, who was sent by God. They went further that their forefathers ate manna in the wilderness which was sent down from heaven. Jesus said that manna was sent as a temporary relief from physical hunger that God has sent down a living bread which gives life
Jesus as the living water
As Jesus was waiting for his disciples who went out to buy food, a Samaritan woman came to draw water from one to Jacob’s Wells. Jesus was thirsty. So, he demanded water from the Samaritan woman. The woman refused on the grounds that Jews and Samaritans have no dealings.
Jesus answered and said: “If you know the gift of God, and who it is that is saying to you, give me a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water.” (John4:10). The woman was amazed how Jesus could give her water when he had no vessel for drawing water from the well. The woman queried whether Jesus was greater than Jacob who gave them the well and drank from it with his children and cattle. In response,
Jesus declared: “Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again but who drinks of the water I shall give him will never thirst; the water that I shall give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” (John4:14)
The woman then requested for the living water so that she might not thirst again nor come to draw water.
Significance
Jesus in describing himself as the living water was speaking metaphorically. The “living water” is the word of God which leads to salvation. This salvation is universal. It is for all the nations of the world. By saying that it is a spring water welling up to eternal life, he meant that the word of God would always stand the test of time and sustain whoever embraces it.
