Changing Perspectives

Have you ever struggled with a "hard saying" from Jesus? This message delves into John 6:60-71, where many of Jesus's disciples found his words too difficult to accept. Discover why a new perspective is essential for genuine faith, even when it leads to uncomfortable truths and demands humility.

We'll unpack:

• Why Jesus's teaching about eating His flesh and drinking His blood caused offense.
• The uncomfortable perspectives Jesus demands, such as recognizing our sinfulness and living under His authority.
• How changing our perspective allows us to see beyond immediate pain to ultimate, eternal outcomes.
• The role of the Holy Spirit and Jesus's words in giving us new life.
• The necessity of humility to discard false ideas and embrace God's truth.
• The sobering truth about genuine faith persevering and the warning for those who turn back.

This sermon challenges you to examine your own perspectives and invites you to embrace the transformative power of God's truth, even when it's difficult.
