    We are continuing our study back in the gospel of John with John 6:1-71. John describes the miraculous signs of Jesus feeding the 5000 and him walking on water. In the past, God through Moses (the first redeemer) controlled the waters by dividing the seas and feeding the Israelites with miraculous provisions of bread. But the one who is greater than Moses has come. Jesus is the bread of life, the true bread from heaven given by the Father. Those who may find eternal life and ultimate satisfaction must fully partake and believe in the Son, the true bread from heaven.

    To quote Pastor Andy Stanley, vision is a clear mental picture of what could be, fueled by the conviction of what should be. But what makes vision distinctly Christian is that God is at the center of it. A God-ordained vision starts as a burden stirred up by God, eventually feels like a moral imperative given by God, and is always in alignment with God's Kingdom purposes. The reason why cultivating such vision is so important is because vision provides direction for life, protection against burnout, and motivation to make sacrifices.

In doing so, Paul is not endorsing the institution of slavery, but instructing Christians on how to faithfully operate within that pre-existing system while also subtly undermining the entire system itself. Through this passage, we see that regardless of our specific jobs, we are all ultimately working for the Lord. As such, we should work with integrity, excellence, and perseverance.
