26 aNow as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and bafter blessing it broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; cthis is my body.”

John 6:52-57

52The Jews then ddisputed among themselves, saying, eHow can this man give us his flesh to eat?” 53So Jesus said to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of fthe Son of Man and drink his blood, you ghave no life in you. 54Whoever feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood hhas eternal life, and iI will raise him up on the last day. 55For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. 56Whoever feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood jabides in me, and I in him. 57As kthe living Father lsent me, and mI live because of the Father, so whoever feeds on me, he also will live because of me.
