John 6:14. Then those men, when they had seen the miracle which Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.
They were convinced through their stomachs. They came to this conviction merely through eating and drinking, and that faith which comes by the senses is no faith at all, or it is a sensual faith which cannot save the soul. These people, who came to this belief through eating, were very poor followers of Christ, as he said to them, "Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled."
This exposition consisted of readings from John 6:1-14; John 6:30-45.
