Sermons citing John 6:1–14

^6:3 Then Jesus went up on the mountain and sat down with His disciples.

^6:4 Now the Jewish Feast of the Passover was near.

^6:5 When Jesus looked up and saw a large crowd coming toward Him, He said to Philip, “Where can we buy bread for these people to eat?”

^6:6 But He was asking this to test him, for He knew what He was about to do.

^6:7 Philip answered, “Two hundred denarii would not buy enough bread for each of them to have a small piece.”

^6:8 One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to Him,

^6:9 “Here is a boy with five barley loaves and two small fish. But what difference will these make among so many?”

^6:10 “Have the people sit down,” Jesus said. Now there was plenty of grass in that place, so the men sat down, about five thousand of them.

^6:11 Then Jesus took the loaves and the fish, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted.

^6:12 And when everyone was full, He said to His disciples, “Gather the pieces that are left over, so that nothing will be wasted.”

^6:13 So they collected them and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves left over by those who had eaten.

^6:14 When the people saw the sign that Jesus had performed, they began to say, “Truly this is the Prophet who is to come into the world.”
