03/13/2022 "Feasting in the Wilderness" Matthew 14:13-21
Speaker: Dr. Bryant Owens
This text records the single greatest miracle that Jesus performed in his ministry. The feeding of the 5,000 is recorded in all four of the gospels. No other miracle of Jesus is testified in all of the gospels. This account of Jesus and His disciples feeding 5,000 is the only miracle of all of Jesus' miracles recorded in all four gospels. This IS important. This miracle is located at the climax of Jesus' ministry in all of the gospel accounts.
A feast occurs in the wilderness. As the dark sin of all souls wanders in the wilderness, Jesus offers his broken body to reconcile fallen humanity in the graces of the Father in Heaven.
