John 6:37-50
"Him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out," the loving Saviour promises (v. 37). Go to Him if you have not already done so; He will not turn you away.
But to come to the Lord Jesus a work of the Spirit must take place in one’s heart. Man cannot take one step towards God unless He draws him (v. 44). Perhaps someone will say, "Well, it’s not my fault then if I’m not converted." On the contrary, you are entirely responsible for allowing this divine work to take place in you. Even at this moment, God is drawing you to Himself. Do not resist Him any longer.
The grace which the Lord Jesus shows towards the sinner is the expression of His own love. But it is also part of the will of God, which is to give life to His creature (v. 40). Now the Lord Jesus had come to fulfil this will and to do nothing else (v. 38; cf. Hebrews 10:9; "Lo, I come to do thy will").
Man has a body and a soul. That is why he cannot live on bread alone, which only feeds his body. His soul also needs food and this is to be found only in the divine Word, the heavenly Bread, Christ Himself (Luke 4:4).
