经文：【约翰福音第六章1-15节】
1 这事以后，耶稣渡过加利利海，就是提比哩亚海。
2 有许多人因为看见他在病人身上所行的神迹，就跟随他。
3 耶稣上了山，和门徒一同坐在那里。
4那时犹太人的逾越节近了。
5 耶稣举目看见许多人来，就对腓力说：「我们从哪里买饼叫这些人吃呢？ 」
6 他说这话是要试验腓力;他自己原知道要怎样行。
7 腓力回答说：「就是二十两银子的饼，叫他们各人吃一点也是不够的。 」
8 有一个门徒，就是西门·彼得的兄弟安得烈，对耶稣说：
9「在这里有一个孩童，带着五个大麦饼、两条鱼，只是分给这许多人还算什么呢？ 」
10 耶稣说：「你们叫众人坐下。 」原来那地方的草多，众人就坐下，数目约有五千。
11 耶稣拿起饼来，祝谢了，就分给那坐着的人;分鱼也是这样，都随着他们所要的。
12 他们吃饱了，耶稣对门徒说：「把剩下的零碎收拾起来，免得有糟蹋的。 」
13 他们便将那五个大麦饼的零碎，就是众人吃了剩下的，收拾起来，装满了十二个篮子。
14 众人看见耶稣所行的神迹，就说：「这真是那要到世间来的先知！ 」
15 耶稣既知道众人要来强逼他作王，就独自又退到山上去了。
引言:
1.「五饼二鱼」是四部福音书全都记载的唯一的神迹。
2. 人在世界都离不开吃，而华人的文化传统最在乎的一件事情就是「吃」。
3. 吃的学问是关乎生命的学问，不但是今生的学问， 而且是永生的学问。
4. 神把救赎的真理，用吃上表达出来。 能在最平常的生活事物中启发最深奥的生命智慧，这是耶稣基督的伟大超越。
重点 ：
1. 人们寻求耶稣，不是要敬拜耶稣，乃是因为自己的需要。 （约6：1-2） （徒8：9-24）
人们看到神迹，就跟随耶稣基督。但是，相信神迹无法使人得救，相信耶稣才能得救。相信神迹的本身，乃是因为人的自我为中心的需要。这不是信仰，乃是满足自我欲望的宗，是虚假的信仰。
2. 门徒跟随耶稣，乃要分享作王的荣耀。（约6：3-13） （希11：1）
他们无法学会靠主解决问题。因为他们自己无法完全相信依靠耶稣。还没有属天 的思维。人看环境，神创造环境！人看到的是问题，神乃是一切问题的答案。
3. 耶稣，真正不一样的王。（约6：14-15） （撒上8：1-18）
结语 ：
1. 你来敬拜耶稣的时候，你让他作王是因为什么？
2. 耶稣基督是王：无论你接受与否他都是王，他是创造的王，他是救赎的王，他是掌管宇宙的君王。
3. 作为王，他为你，为我而死，且死在十字架上，用生命的血唤醒我们，用生命为粮救赎我。
4. 你明白他的苦心吗？你知道他所真正关心的吗？
5. 我们需要的那赐给永恒生命的粮食，这粮食乃是耶稣基督。
Scripture: [John 6: 1-15]
6 Some time after this, Jesus crossed to the far shore of the Sea of Galilee (that is, the Sea of Tiberias), 2 and a great crowd of people followed him because they saw the signs he had performed by healing the sick. 3 Then Jesus went up on a mountainside and sat down with his disciples. 4 The Jewish Passover Festival was near.5 When Jesus looked up and saw a great crowd coming toward him, he said to Philip, “Where shall we buy bread for these people to eat?” 6 He asked this only to test him, for he already had in mind what he was going to do.7 Philip answered him, “It would take more than half a year’s wages[a] to buy enough bread for each one to have a bite!”8 Another of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, spoke up, 9 “Here is a boy with five small barley loaves and two small fish, but how far will they go among so many?”10 Jesus said, “Have the people sit down.” There was plenty of grass in that place, and they sat down (about five thousand men were there). 11 Jesus then took the loaves, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted. He did the same with the fish.12 When they had all had enough to eat, he said to his disciples, “Gather the pieces that are left over. Let nothing be wasted.” 13 So they gathered them and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves left over by those who had eaten.14 After the people saw the sign Jesus performed, they began to say, “Surely this is the Prophet who is to come into the world.” 15 Jesus, knowing that they intended to come and make him king by force, withdrew again to a mountain by himself.
Introduction:
1. "Five loaves and two fish" is the only miracle recorded in all four gospels.
2. People in the world cannot do without eating food, and the one thing that Chinese cultural tradition cares about most is “eating”.
3. The knowledge of eating is the knowledge about life, not only the knowledge of this life, but also the knowledge of eternal life.
4. God expresses the truth of salvation through eating. It is the great transcendence of Jesus Christ that can inspire the most profound life wisdom in the most common life things.
Highlights:
1. People seek Jesus, not to worship Jesus, but because of their own needs. (John 6:1-2) (Acts 8:9-24)
People see miracles and follow Jesus Christ. However, believing in miracles cannot bring people salvation, only believing in Jesus can one be saved. Believing in the miracle itself is due to self-centered needs of human beings. This is not a faith, but a religion that satisfies one's desires, and a fake faith.
2. The disciples followed Jesus in order to share the glory of kingship. (John 6:3-13) (Heb 11:1)
They cannot learn to rely on the Lord to solve problems. Because, they themselves cannot fully believe in relying on Jesus. They have not acquired the vision of heaven. People merely weigh in on the environments, God creates the environment! What people see are problems, and God is the salvation to all problems.
3. Jesus, the truly different King. (John 6:14-15) (1 Samuel 8:1-18)
Conclusion:
1. When you come to worship Jesus, why do you make Him King?
2. Jesus Christ is the King: Whether you accept it or not, He is the King, He is the King of creation, He is the King of salvation, and He is the King of the universe.
3. As the King, He died for you, for me, and died on the cross, awakening us with the blood of life, and redeeming us with life as the bread.
4. Do you understand Jesus’ painstaking efforts? Do you know what He really cares about?
5. We need the food that provides us the eternal life, and this food is Jesus Christ.
