A Good Friday Special: Jesus, the Leavened Bread, the Bread of Life

  • Today is Good Fri­day. BKP Good Fri­day Spe­cial. Jesus is the bread of life and our Lord and Sav­ior. 
  • On this sacred Good Fri­day, we con­tem­plate the pow­er­ful imagery of leav­ened bread in rela­tion to Jesus Christ, the Bread of Life. While unleav­ened bread, used in the Passover, sym­bol­izes puri­ty and the absence of sin, leav­ened bread can rep­re­sent trans­for­ma­tion, growth, and the per­va­sive influ­ence of God’s King­dom. In this sense, Jesus as the “leav­ened bread” embod­ies the risen, trans­for­ma­tive pow­er of His life and sac­ri­fice, which per­me­ates and uplifts human­i­ty.
  • In John 6:35, Jesus pro­claims, “I am the bread of life. Who­ev­er comes to me will nev­er go hun­gry, and who­ev­er believes in me will nev­er be thirsty.” On the cross, Jesus offered His body, bro­ken yet filled with the divine pow­er to trans­form lives, much like leav­en spreads through dough. His sac­ri­fice, com­mem­o­rat­ed today, infus­es the world with hope, grace, and the promise of eter­nal life, rais­ing us from the weight of sin to the full­ness of redemp­tion.
  • As we reflect on Good Fri­day, let us embrace Jesus, the leav­ened bread, whose trans­for­ma­tive love works with­in us. Through His death, He became the cat­a­lyst for our spir­i­tu­al renew­al, spread­ing His life-giv­ing pres­ence to all who believe. May we hon­or His sac­ri­fice by allow­ing His grace to rise with­in us, trans­form­ing our hearts and lives. Blessed Good Fri­day.
  • The New Tes­ta­ment is hid­den in the Old, but the Old Tes­ta­ment is revealed in the New.
