John 6:22-71 “Unless You Eat My Flesh and Drink My Blood”
In this Bible Study from Sunday morning at Calvary Fellowship of Ottawa, Pastor Andy Falleur reads to us for a third time this conversation between Jesus and the crowd of 5k that He had miraculously fed the day before. They had wanted to make him king by force and he had retreated from them. This is their conversation, where Jesus seemingly, intentionally makes really jarring statements about the Father and himself. The climax of the conversation is where He states that they must eat his flesh and drink his blood to have life. He goes on to say that His flesh is true food and his blood is true drink.
How should we understand this? And, how does it apply to our lives today? Should we understand it the way that countless Christians over the centuries have understood it, as being the bread and wine in Communion? If we don’t understand it that way, what way should we receive His words?
The resource quoted is “Eerdman’s Handbook to the History of Christianity” published in 1977. It happens to be available and on the shelf in the UpperRoom at Calvary (upperroom@calvaryottawa.ca)
