The Bread Basket
(Who Has It?)

By Ben Howard

Greetings to you in the lovely Name of our Lord Jesus
Christ. I would like to bring you a message from the Word of
God, entitled, “The Bread Basket” (Who Has It).
Being a minister of the Gospel, and a church-goer, I’ve often
heard ministers make comments on “The Bread of Eternal Life,”
but have never really made a study on the subject myself; but
suddenly becoming very interested in the subject I decided to
make a study on “The Bread of Life.” I find it not only very
interesting, but also of great importance to our very
salvation. I sincerely pray that you will be enlightened
spiritually by this vitally important message.
Now to begin our study, let’s go to Genesis, the first book
of the Bible. There we find the Tree of Life mentioned. On one
occasion Jesus told His disciples to go back to the beginning to
find the truth on a subject. So I decided to use the same
technique on this subject and found it worked very good. You
can’t beat God’s way of doing things, can you?
In Genesis 2:9, we find the Tree of Life and the Tree of
Knowledge of Good and Evil mentioned. This, of course, was two
laws that God set before His children. The law of Eternal Life
was keeping God’s Word, ALL OF IT (bringing forth children God’s
ordained way). The Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil was
disbelieving God’s Word (to reproduce by their knowledge, not
waiting for instructions from God.) The fact is, Adam and Eve
failed to “eat” of the Tree of Life in the garden of Eden and
changed the course of the history of the world by “eating” of
“Knowledge.”
Well, our first chance of eating of the Tree of Life is now
lost, but God did give us a ray of hope; He made us a promise
that the Tree of Life would be offered to us again in the last
days. This time it would be called the “Bread of Life,” given
by Jesus Christ who is, of course, THE Bread of Life.
God always shows His plan through types and shadows, long
before the plan is brought in plain view. So on this subject of
the Bread of Life, He showed through His prophets and priests,
many types of what the REAL Bread would be -- again the real
Bread is Jesus, the Word; of which the manna that was given to
Israel under Moses was a type of the real Bread of Life.
