Sunday 6th January 2012

Speaker: Laurence Jones
Readings: Leviticus Ch. 23 vs. 23-44
John Ch. 7 vs. 1-15, 25-39

Jesus said in John Ch 7 v 37 "If anyone thirsts let him come to Me and drink..."

This is an invitation to everyone to receive spiritual life, for Jesus was speaking in a spiritual sense.

Those who receive this spiritual life must be aware of their need, their thirst. People need to realise their need before God before He can help them.

It is Jesus we come to, it is He who offers us the invitation.

He is qualified to save us because He is God revealed to us in human flesh.

Jesus when He was on the cross said, "I thirst". This is the one who could satisfy the thirst of the whole world and He is thirsty. Why? It is because He was receiving the punishment for the sin of the whole world upon the cross. Receive Him and drink from His fountain and you will never thirst spiritually again.
